4HB day 2

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?
