Try to cut out some calories while your metabolism gets activated again. As long as you are consistent and eat/drink well, your body will adapt to show you it likes the new game plan. Don't look at it as an exhausting task. Think of it as putting in the effort to make positive changes and take care of yourself. Don't feel pressure to do this challenge every day, but definitely try to get it in as much as you can. You need to feel some pain to gain here.
