It has only been a few days, and these few were anticipated to be the toughest so things are right on course. Down to 205 this morning and although I did have pasta for lunch, I kept the proportion way down and balanced it out with a salad for lunch. Dinner was tilapia with brocoli and a salad. Roughly 600 calories. More than most dinners this week, but I am starting to feel like I am progressing in the right direction. By that I mean I am tired, recovery is taking longer than usual and I have an endless supply of cravings. The key is in the 3rd to 4th week. Balance will return and the benefits will then overtake the debts.
