28 days: Day one done

Well...we began! We started yesterday. So far it's been pretty easy. The shakes are delicious and arn't giving me that bloated, nausea-esque feeling that some powders do. Hardest part might just be forcing myself to get in the NEPA and drink all of the shakes! Towards the end of the day my mind was slipping into it's old "that's too much food, don't eat that" stage. Glad I worked out all of the macros before beginning.
I got a 45 min walk in yesterday in the basement. Dinner was 8 oz of rotisserie chicken w/o skin, 1 C peas, 2 C salad (lettuce, snap peas, radish) and 2 Tbs fat-free blue cheese.
I also went for my first massage of the 28 days last night. Some new-to-me techniques were used. I've had swedish a few times before, so no worries, but this particular practicioner used hot stones and glass cups (sort of a suction thing) as well. It felt good. Not "my wife rubbing my back" good, but good like a good stretch and deep foam-rolling. I've rescheduled for another massage in 2 weeks. Hopefully, the "Cup Kisses" (hickies, sucker bites, whatever) will be gone by then! I do feel better though.
One down, 27 to go.
