Day 2-3

As one starts the TSFL plan it is recommended that the individual does not begin exercising at the same time. It is recommended that you let your body adjust to the lower calorie intake for several weeks before adding exercise. Well Thom received a generous gift from his parents for Christmas that was a 3 month membership at a fancy gym by where he works. The best part is that his brother also is a member and they have begun meeting there at 630 am this week to workout together. Because the membership is already underway Thom does not feel he can take 2-3 weeks off from going to the gym, however we're concerned that this will keep his body from fully adjusting and accepting the change in food and beginning the sought after fat burning cycle. Thom and I are anxious to see how long it takes to get into the coveted fat burning mode where supposedly he will no longer be so hungry which leads to being hangry (hungry+angry) as well as a lower dose of energy. These days have been challenging for Thom. The food is continuing to be tasty for the most part but he is still feeling too much hunger to be content. He is not ready to give up. But he is currently skeptical that this is something he could maintain for long.
