Day 2 - Small exercises but lot of pain

Hi There,


Second day ended and I was very surprised to see with so little exercise to be so sore in the legs, triceps and chest. It tells you the shape you begin with!


Headed to the gym morning against my habits (usually before the program it was the evening - when gym was part of the program) and started exercising. Skipping is no issue but boy, push-ups are a nightmare. My only explanation is that my body is too heavy for my chest muscles. After the workout, I had to rest for 5 minutes under the A/C as the temperatures are going above 40 degrees Celsius here in Dubai.
Food wise, still sticking to the 1/2 meal discipline though i feel hungry all the time. But i guess this is good.


Breakfast
2 small sizes of brown bread with little raspberry jam
1/2 mug of verbena (herbal tea) no sugar this time unlike the one sugar yesterday and the two before the program
1/2 low fat milk glass


Lunch
Lebanese Kebab but instead of 4 pieces of ground beef that comes into the portion,  I had half of it. 
Half small pita bread
1/2 Fatoush (salad with cucumber, salad leaves, tomato)


Snack
Apple


Dinner
Went out with a friend and had half small pizza with very thin crust. Rest my friend had to eat it. This is slightly more than the first day but still felt hungry but good. 


I am still sore and therefore will do my exercises day 3 this evening. Today is the week end here (it starts on Friday) and I should be able to rest.


Stats. 


I can already see results
90.5 Kg (instead of 92 Kg) 
35% fat (the scale shows this number is high) but i guess i don't need a scale to tell me this!
48.8% water
2.54 Kg of bones
38.8% of muscles
I am thinking of putting the daily stats in an Excel file so that i can plot the progression.
