Day 28 - Week 4 done and dusted...

Almost skipped my first day of workouts yesterday as a result of the indulgence (or over indulgence) the night before.  I ate well, kept it reasonable in size and healthy in choices...but man wine hits me 3 times harder now.  Shared a bottle of wine then later had a couple of glasses drinking heaps of water in between.  My tolerance is obviously down, which probably means my liver is getting happier!  good experience either way, if I wasn't paying the bill I am sure it would have made whoever was paying a happy person, nice restaurant, good bottle and some great food all coming in at 10,000 JPY.  PCP may actually turn out to be a positive return on investment in a very short period (if it hasn't already!) Back to the point, I managed to drag myself to the rope on Wednesday, do my Thursdays skipping, then did Wednesdays work out today... worked out great. Also found these workouts are much more quicker and focused which helps knock them out a lot quicker.

Found I am really having problems getting to bed at a decent hour with all the cooking, cleaning, shopping and workouts I am trying to fit into the day.  Result is I ignore my alarm, miss the opportunity to workout in the morning, and not as awake and alert as I was for the first 2 weeks of the program.  My immediate goal is to get this back to a morning regime and reclaim my evenings to fit in enough time to put some time into cooking up something that is original and tasty so I don't get bored of the plate of food in front of me (and prep breakfast and lunch for the following day)  With no carbs in the evening it really makes it easier and quicker to cook something up.

I'll be weighing up on Saturday, and taking some pictures.  My weight has been really steady over the last week or 2.  Trying to get some more calories burnt in the pool or on the bike on the side.

While I am not losing weight day to day, I am starting to get more verbal comments about thinning out. Funny enough it comes from most people when they see me from behind....not sure why that is.

Looking forward to see what surprises are in for us from tomorrow.  That might be something that forces me out of bed early!  ciao for now!
