Day 5

All good on Day 5: finding it is good to keep this all front and centre (thus the blog) so as to not let this new life regime get lost in the noise of work or the career.

Exercises were fine - push ups still a challenge which never were back in the day.  I still endure my hokey jump rope which I plan to replace tonight.  I have kept the weekend free to get used to the new diet - ie, shopping and getting into it. Whew, what a change this will all be - but a good one.

I am feeling I have more energy and those happy endorphins seem to be making a show. Had an absolute magic sleep overnight which I hope is a keeper from this program.

All good - I know "if it is to be it is up to me".

Boo-yah.. Back from work function and successfully avoided most food ad food and drinks. Had sashimi and just oolong-cha and it all worked. Similar story at lunch - just chose the healthier choices and had half.

Got a new skipping rope (actually bought two). It is old school rope and wooden handles. On the weekend I am going to try and change the rope to my nylon one which has better handles: which is why I bought a second one.

I checked some friends (past PCPers) photos to see at what point change could be seen and it seems from around the 2nd or 3rd week but at around day 50 there is significant change. 

All good - a little sore all over - but it's not a bad feeling.

To Day 6.. all great.

  1. I have to work out a way of doing this in the morning without moving house or waking up my whole family! So evenings it is for now... I am with you on the sleep - even with my daughter waking up in the night and me having to get up - it was so quick and then my alarm woke me this morning for the first time in ages.
    Cant wait until the jumprope becomes more natural - well done mate!
