No Break Fast - Day Two

Captain's Log, Day Two:

So, I made it through day one with no cheating or breaking down crying because I just wanted a frickin' sammich. I was only physically hungry a couple of times and for no more than thirty minutes. I think the hardest part is that I'm so used to snacking and eating at certain times that it just becomes a hard habit to break.

I was laying around a couple times yesterday not particularly thinking about anything and my mind would suddenly show me movies of hot delicious pizza being cut into perfect wedges by a table saw. Or a close up view of a grilled cheese sandwich getting flipped over. Not really tempting, just funny. I never randomly see food movies in my head.

I don't really feel all that different yet. I can tell little things, like yesterday I went for a walk during lunch and walking up a little hill made my legs burn a tiny bit. Also, my energy level is much more even and level. I don't have the ups and downs I normally get snacking and eating. Its nice to not get hyper because I had some sugar and then sleepy because I ate something else.

According to my Pappy, these are the hardest days of the whole thing. By day three it gets easier and by day five (supposedly) you don't really want to stop. We'll see!
