I was stressed about my food intake because 1400 calories seemed SO low for me. I was hungry all the time! The scale proved this was the case - I dropped a few unintentional pounds and am bordering on underweight. This was not part of my plan but realized the book is touted as being a way to drop the last 10 - 20 pounds. Well, if you are already at your ideal weight, this is a problem! I discussed with Chap and redesigned my calorie goal to 1700 for now. If I feel that this isn't working, I will increase again. My Day 9 workout went really well, so I feel like the extra fuel is just what I needed. I could see where someone would try to work through the low calories and be miserable, so I do wish the book spent a little more time talking about calories and people who might not need to lose 10 pounds. I'm sure I'm not the only one who experienced this.
I'm so excited about the definition in my arms. They are looking fabulous! I will post halfway pictures in a few days. I've impressed myself with close grip push-ups... and pretty much all types of push-ups. I can tell it's working!
Of course it's pouring on a day I needed to do some sprints, so I will be getting creative later with my workout!
