What a difference a day makes. Today was so much easier to handle, when it comes to exercising and food intake. I felt normal as my Power 90 Sweat 3-4 routine progressed. My energy levels were normal to high and when I added more cardio (treadmill,) I actually jogged for a good 25 minutes.
The only think that I am concerned with is that I still was unable to meet my minimum amount of caloric needs. I believe I was short a good 200 calories. I felt like I was stuffing my face. I know understand the importance of spreading out your meals into 3 main meals and 2 "snacks." If you only eat 3 meals a day, you are going to have a difficult time meeting your caloric needs. Eating 5 meals allows you to spread these caloric needs out so you will not only feel full the entire day, but you will also be able to consume enough food to not feel overstuffed. I find it so facinating that I can actually eat more now that I am getting closer to the mid range of a healthy body. It's nice to know I can eat healthy and be filled completely.
Of course I want to exceed that and not only be healthy, but take it up a notch and be ripped and strong. That is my next phase that I am looking forward to. I know I still need to make the neccessary adjustments to my food intake, but I'll eventually crack the code sooner or later.
