Advocare...day 2

So as you all know I started the Advocare Challenge yesterday.  

I have to say so far it really hasn't been very difficult.  Dare I say I'm actually enjoying it. 

For those of you that don't know what it is let me give you a little info on what I do on a daily basis.

The first 10 days of the challenge are a cleanse.  

You have a fiber drink that you drink first thing in the morning. That part was what I was most worried about. It's not the greatest tasting but it's not the worse thing I've ever taken. 

Then you have some supplements that you take 30 minutes before breakfast and lunch. 

I think that is the part that has been most difficult for me. I am definitely not use to taking so many supplements.  I was burping up vitamins all day yesterday.  

Here is a glimpse of what I take daily

Its quite a few pills to choke down. Im doing it though. Ive already noticed a spike in my energy. I havent had coffee or pop in 5 days! I started that back on Sunday before the challenge. 

Eating so far has been fairly simple. Im really not struggling with any of it. 

The meals are not horribly restricting. I get a protein, veggie and complex carb. 

I made these to eat in the mornings. 

Its just 16 eggs, a bag of peppers, onions and 3 slices of 12 grain whole grain bread chopped up. Mix together and pour into muffin pans. It made 16 muffins. I eat one or two depending on my hunger level. 

They are supper yummy! 

Most of you know my obsession with lists. Well this challenge is prefect for me just for that reason! It comes with a book that walks you through step by step for each thing that needs to be done. There is even a box to check off what you've done so far. Love it!! 

I will post a weigh in Wednesday next week. 

So far ive been going to the gym everyday. I am really liking it. Its a lot harder to cop out of going when i know i've paid for a membership.  

I dont want to be a "New Years resolution statistic". I have promised myself I will do this for my health and happiness. Glad that I have some pretty awesome people to take this journey with:) 

I'm hoping to update this blog every few days. 

Until then friends....
