So today was much easier than yesterday. Probably because I knew what to expect. I still have some strange hunger pains. The kind that are just gnawing and not overwhelming. But my body seems to be getting used to the change in food. I was able to make it to the pool to swim some laps today. I haven't been in quite a while, so it wasn't my best swim to date. But, it was better than my first swim day. And my energy seemed to stay up for pretty much the whole workout.
I am excited about cheat day. I already have a meal plan worked out. I am not sure if it is going to change during the week or not. But I want pancakes for breakfast. Wing stop for lunch. And there is a good restaurant here in San Angelo that I discovered a couple of weeks ago. I am going to get something delicious there and have a few beers. There is also a bbq place around here that has really good peach cobbler. I will work that in somewhere, just not sure where yet. I think I will even get it ala mode!
An interesting change that has occurred, especially considering all of the beans I have been eating, is that I haven't gone twosie but once in the last two days. And almost all signs of flatulence is gone. I thought for sure that I was going to be struggling with it. Considering it is a life-long curse of mine, I assumed that it would become exponentially worse when I was on a diet with so many beans. But I have had virtually no gas and very little intestinal issues at all for the last two days. Who would have guessed that beans would be the cure?
That is really interesting about the farts! Can't believe it! :-)
