I had a pretty bad day today with my diet. I exercised a lot, 60 minutes of strength training with my Ripped to the Core workout, a brisk 30-minute walk outside at work and then a 30-minute run/jog on my treadmill tonight. I ran tonight because I ate five butter cookies at work and then, ate BK with the kids tonight. I only had 3 chicken tenders and half a small fry, but I feel pretty gross.
My hamstrings are on fire right now and I can't wait for my yoga tomorrow morning to help me stretch. The crazy thing is that I am finding it harder to stick to my diet in phase 2 than I did in phase 1. How can that be? I can eat a lot more in phase 2. I hope I can stay on course and keep moving successfully towards phase 3.
I'm going to catch some Z's now. Good night and let's fight the good fight another day!

I've noticed that if I don't focus on keeping my blood sugar levels constant, I get really hungry. That includes eating at regular intervals and avoiding any kind of processed foods and "white" foods (as the book puts it). I guess I even kind of "cheat" on this diet as long as I don't go over my caloric limit and I know that the quantity of whatever I'm eating won't affect my blood sugar. Even a "finger-lick" of frosting isn't going to be enough to spike your levels (so long as you're not licking all 10 fingers). ;)
Doing great, and enjoy your workout!

Your workout is making ME tired:) Don't beat yourself up, you more than worked off your little splurges and they don't sound so bad to begin with:)
