All great on day 9 and I will echo my comments from yesterday - that it is good these changes came over a weekend (sure it was designed that way) - as everything takes a lot of time.
Exercises took longer than I hoped: still tripping up on the skipping - or legs burning out. I tried exercising mid-way through the day which I will admit, was a lot more difficult then doing them first thing in the morning.
So all prepared: Tokyu Hands had everything needed in terms of equipment: resistance bands door jammer thingo (inexpensive and there) and then I am totally prepared for food - visiting costco and buying out their seafood section. Just shelling prawns and putting portions into ziplock bags.
Resitance bands are great. Effects are felt way after the exercises which I can imagine is a good thing.
Breakfast: poached egg with rye bread with avocado mashed all over it. Did not know what to do with my (additional) egg white - so I just drank it as is.. Lunch - brown rice (from last night) with chicken and zucchini: heaps of black and cayenne pepper. Used water - smidgen of olive oil for the zucchini sliced paper thin (Italiano style). Tasted a lot like a risotto and was pretty good.
Tonight - (and for lunch tomorrow): lamb, heaps of squashed tomotoes, garlic, roast pumpkin, mushrooms pan fried zucchini only using water - all with cous cous.
All veges, protein and carbs weighed. Bowl mixed for tonight's dinner and lunch in a container: tasted a lot better than it looked - giddyup for tomorrow.
Feeling good - feel tighter all over. Work outs need some work but getting there.

Well done Ricardo! I think the food is the toughest part of the PCP, especially the prep time, but you'll find your groove, start cutting/chopping/ziplocking/freezing, and make big batches of stuff that can be eaten for any breakfast/lunch/dinner over the course of a few days. Everyone has their own thing, I used a lot of garlic, ginger, cayenne and black pepper, and you've already discovered the glory of the avocado, which one seasoned PCP veteran aptly dubbed "God's mayo". Keep it up!!!!
