Day One Done - Tomorrow, the Challenge Begins

Ok so I made it through day one.  But I always do well on day one, it's days two, three, and four that are harder. 

What went well?  I got to eat a good amount of food, satisfying food and stayed within my calorie range.  Did I have some hugner pangs in the evening?  A little, but they were tolerable and I made it through.  I also feel better today - less bloated.  I had an ok amount of energy but I slept pretty well and took a 5-hour-energy so I doubt that it was related to the changes in my eating.  However, I was not exhausted so that was good.  I did not even work out and still burned off 500 calories which is my target so that also was good. 

What was hard?  Finding something sweet that was low carb.  I was going to make an almond-meal pancake recipe but forgot an ingredient so I had eggs for breakfast instead.  The eggs were good but I know it will be hard on the days that I want a sweet breakfast to stay away from the cereal, etc.  So that is my mission - find some sweet low carb breakfasts.  :)

Well the weekend is coming as is my transition day where I eat four times, so there will be tons of challenges.  My goal is to focus on the protein and work out.
