Today I woke up with the same mindset, ready to take on the day and
rock this new lifestyle. However, as positive as I am about it, I must admit I
woke up pretty exhausted and sore from last night’s workout add to that a
headache and a scratchy throat. I’m
thinking it may be a “detox” headache and that I can accept knowing that it
will pass and it is because I am doing something good for myself.

The exact same goals as yesterday. I posted them here again so I can see them
and remind myself of them.
I didn’t talk about Supplements yesterday but that is a huge part of
this lifestyle too. And I must admit I don’t do well when it comes to supplements.
I am however taking all that is required of me. I need to however make a
change. Yesterday I started a multi-vitamin powder. I put it in my shake
yesterday and it really changed the flavor and texture of the shake. NOT a fan.
So today I decided I would just mix the powder with a little water and try and
down it like a shot. Oh that was a total mistake. Just about threw up twice. I
don’t think that I can make that a daily ritual, no matter how much I want to
better myself. There has to be a better way. I’m looking for alternatives and
suggestions.
I’m not going to talk in detail about the meals today. I did eat my 5
meals and by the time meal 4th meal came around I just wasn’t in to
it at all. I wasn’t hungry but I did try to look at it as fuel and not just
food.
Workout was intense today. I got my fat burning workout in (aka cardio
but at a lower heart rate) 45 minutes on the elliptical and to waste time before
my class I rode the bike for 15 minutes while playing Words with Friends. Weight
training worked out the back and chest.
Was kind of embarrassed, we had to do push-ups and when I asked what if
you can’t do them? The training asked if I was injured. I had to explain, no I
was just weak. My goal at the end of this 12 week transformation, besides
looking good, is to be able to do a real push up.
After my workout, my headache was gone so I’ll have to remember that
for next time. Can’t use the excuse, “Sorry I’ve got a headache.”
Well here is to day 2 being done and gone and on to day 3.
