Second day of the Revolution and I'm still alive. I have to admit when I saw the macros Rog gave me it scared the shit out of me. My first thoughts were calories too low, carbs too low...I'm going to suffer. But I stamped on that fear, knowing that I'd committed to doing it Roger's way instead of my way which totally has not been working.
The first two days have not been that bad. Yes, I've been hungry. Yes, it's been a challenge to figure out how the food I normally eat fits into the macros. And so far I've found ways to overcome these challenges. Step number three of the Revolution is Don't Break the Chain. For me the chain is consecutive days of meeting my macros, no cheating or fudging the numbers. The links in the chain are each day on my calendar with a sticker of mission accomplished. One link so far...
Since my calories are much lower than what I've been used to, I decided to decrease the weights lifted in my workouts. I'm glad I decided that because I was definitely getting fatigued at the end today. My new supplements haven't come yet and I'm anxiously waiting so see how they work for me. I'll update with my supplement plan once I have it all sorted out. And pictures are on my to-do list as well.
