WARRIOR DIET DAY #1 — The Best Worst Day to Start it.

I slept only 4h because I had to bring my girlfriend to the airport super early in the morning.

Being tired like this seems to be the worst idea when you want to start a diet such as the Warrior Diet (more about the diet itself here). Because a tired mind isn’t so rational and is more likely to get tempted.

But whatever, I said the day before that I would start anyway,
so I started it.

There is no “best” day to start anything.
So I decided today would be the best one for me.

I had my first meal at 8PM, and it was fairly easy to wait until then. I initially stated that my window for eating would be 8h, but
I only ate between 8pm and 10:15pm
, which means I can have my next food the day after at 2:15pm (16h fasting).

I think it was easy to wait because I ate SO MUCH during the Christmas holidays that my body was happy to stop getting many calories.

I didn’t have any workout this day because I was so tired from the sleepless night (half of my day was dedicated to sleep/rest and the rest for working/eating).

Today’s benefit

  • Feeling lighter
  • Satisfied of starting such a challenge
  • Really enjoyed eating my daily meal at 8pm

Tomorrow’s plan

  • Eating from 2:15pm to 10:15pm max (stick to 8h eating / 16h fasting)
  • Intense workout in the morning
  • Focusing on listening to my body to know what kind of food it needs
