Day 14 - Crabby pants

Day 14 Observations -
Well - life isn't all diamonds and rose (RHWBH reference for all my BRAVO fans out there). I am on phase two of the challenge - the refuel and burn phase - and it's no cake walk (yum, cake). The idea is that on certain days you refuel and add some starchy carbs to your menu (hurray!) but on the burn days you remove those as well as fruit from your diet to get your metabolism back on the right track and it pushes your body into an intense “fat burning” mode. Who doesn't want that?! But what they don't say is you get crabby - or at least I am. Not sure why but by about 5:00 at night the past two nights I just feel like my patience is gone and I'm grouchy. I'm trying to push through it as I am seeing big results. My arms look totally different - you can actually see the muscles that I have been working on for the past year. My butt is is shrinking as is my waist. So I know it's working but it ain't easy - and that's why they call it a challenge! And I can't wait to dive into a bowl of fresh fruit tomorrow!!
