Day 3

I feel great so far! The interesting thing is that I am sleeping better, am better able to wake up in the morning without that sluggish feeling.  The last three mornings I have woke up at 4 am without an alarm.  My energy feels pretty even throughout the day.  I did the "Fighter" workout at the gym today and I felt like I was consistent and had a lot in the tank despite being sore and recovering from last weekend's brutality.  This week has been busy so I have not been able to cook as much as I would like.  Last weekend's throwdown disrupted my cooking day.  So will be sticking to simple meals most of which I prepared on Sunday and Monday night for the week.

I am past the point of craving sugar, after a week that went away.  It has switched to craving more fat.  Many people have been asking me why they feel so tired and their energy is lagging.  In looking at many journals it is because there is not enough protein and or fat.  Keep in mind that now all you are eating is veggies and fruit, you body will burn through that energy quick and is looking to use other energy sources such as fat.  Keep up the good work, and stay with it!  This will bring with it many rewards.


Here is my day 3 I will post two recipes as well that people have been asking about.
