Here it is day 2!

Today was Fast Sunday, the day where us Mormons don't eat for 24 hours and pray . I love Fast Sunday because I don't have to think about what I eat on this wonderful day! Some fitness people will say it is very bad to fast like this but I have seen nothing but blessings so nothing is going to stop this gal! I like to liken it to Bill Philips Body For Life's "Free Day" of sorts...but I still try not eat more than 1600 calories...I came in WAY under today

I ate at 6pm to end my fast and I think I did pretty well. I had plain mashed potatoes..about 1/2 cup, 1/2 hand portion of beef roast, green beans and some peas...lots of water and I snuck a small chocolate chip cookie but stopped at one I surprised even myself!

No exercise because today is the Sabbath Day :)

Rate the Day: 9.5 The cookie could have been left alone!

I am sore from what I did yesterday but I am glad I have chosen NOT to go all out this time with killing myself getting back into exercise..a little sore at a time not SO SORE I WANT TO DIE FOR 2 WEEKS...I like it much better this way , I tend to go over board and can't even lift my arm to brush my teeth, totally not pleasant at my age anymore!

I had a migraine all day and didn't feel like eating either so the fasting went a lot easier! I ate chicken instead of roast but everything else was exactly the same!!!! Well except the cookie, I had a piece of chocolate. Today is good too, so far just oatmeal. Getting used to not having to feel so full ALL day long is nice.
