End of day two

Good morning everyone! Again I woke up before my alarm and feel great. According to my coach, my body is entering the FAT BURNING PHASE. Hence because this is happening I have a bunch more energy. Normally by 9:00 pm my body says, "OK, that's enough for today;" but last night I was still going strong at 10:30 and had to force myself to lay down!

Day two was fairly similar to day one. No head aches or muscle pain, except for some sore muscles from working out in the garden the night before. Along with my weight loss goal, is to also grow much of our own food out of our garden.

I greatly appreciate the phone calls from my health coach. Yes it is wonderful hearing from my wife while at work, but the phone calls have been a great support. Just having someone call for a few minutes during the day and ask how things are going, how I feel, and give advice and encouragement is the greatest source of support for me to be successful. Another reason why this program will work for anyone!

I did have a few cravings today, mainly for the taco wagon that sits across the parking lot. They make one good burrito! Otherwise I experienced a little more hunger throughout the day, but it wasn't anything overwhelming. By the end of the day when I have my lean and green meal, I really look forward to that bed of lettuce with lean ground beef and a bit of low-fat Italian dressing. Not that the food for the program tastes bad, its just that vegetables are tasting really good; maybe that's how it should be?

Coming home from work I felt a little bloated and constipated, but that was short lived. So far, knock on wood, I haven't felt too poorly during the first two days.
