What good would a blog be if you didn't keep it real, right? I mean, if you're reading this you've either done a 24 DC, currently on one, or know enough about it to know the first part is a cleanse. And I'm on Day 2. Typically it takes 2-3 days to get all cylinders firing away, depending on how much water you're taking in. After all, if it's not coming out, it's not coming off. :-) And as you can see from the title, it's coming out!
Day 2 breakfast is the same as Day 1....Catalyst, fiber drink, Spark, Meal Shake for breakfast.... I ate a little earlier this morning so I was really hungry when it was time for lunch. I didn't get a chance to get a snack so still need to work on that.
For lunch, I met some friends at Ted's and had cedar plank salmon (BIG deal as I am not a fan of salmon...), green beans, and broccoli (without the butter and cheese) and water. I did have some of the half-sours (cucumbers in vinegar and something...)
Mid afternoon, I had a few more Catalyst and a VO2 Prime bar. I haven't been doing an afternoon Spark but I'm thinking I may have to go back to having one of those. Energy was a little down today - not sure if was the fact I was on calls most of the day or the weather or that I really killed it at PT earlier in the day. It wasn't like I was dragging or anything, just didn't quite have the pep like yesterday.
I had a few glasses (maybe 16oz or so) of fruit punch Rehydrate as I was needing a break from just plain water.
For dinner, I made it to a staple from my initial challenge - Chipotle. I had a chicken bowl with brown rice, black beans, pico, (little) medium salsa, and little scoop of guacamole. I ate all of it...and am still a little hungry. Going to go snack on some almonds in a minute and take 3 more Catalyst and....drum roll please....MORE water!
It's crazy how your body reacts to the water intake. I mean, the first time I did this Challenge, I definitely was not drinking nearly enough water, hence the fact I was peeing every 15 minutes...literally!! This time around, not nearly as bad. Now, I am still going pretty frequently, but it's good - it means I know I'm getting it in!
So, recap thus far:
Day 1 - felt really good, super increased energy, slept very well
Day 2 - a little tired, "things were moving well," a little bit hungrier
Signing off for now!
