First day - difficult!
| Mon, 11-10-2003 - 11:40am |
This is my first day...and I'm starving! This is much harder than I expected. Anyone else have this and how long does it last. Breakfast was 2 eggs and 2 candian bacon with coffee - black. Snack was a mozz. cheese stick. Yes...water too. Can't wait for lunch!!
Thanks in advance for any guidance.

I think the important thing that helped me with the WOE is you are not supposed to be starving...if you are hungry, go ahead and eat something that's on the list of allowed foods for phase 1. Have 2 mozarella sticks, or have some veggies w/hummus, or my favorite snack is pistachios!! Very filling. As far as I understand, you can eat as much as necessary (reasonable) so that you are not feeling hungry, as long as it's from the allowed foods list. If this is not correct anyone, please let me know!! I am now on Day 7, and find that I am just not as hungry as I used to be throughout the day, so things definitely change with your apetite as you progress. Good luck and stick with it!

Just a word of caution, and not to make you more nervous than you already might be - the first 3 or 4 days are bears on this plan. It's going to take that long for the "bad-carb purge" to really be complete. You're not likely to feel hungry for all those days, but you just might feel fatigued and lethargic, to the point where if you usually work out, you might just not feel like doing so. Fight through it, and you will make it into the 2nd week. Just keep in touch here; we'll help you stay on plan....
