Day 62 (Day 12 in Scotland)

Junko and I are still exercising, helped by the the unseasonally high temperatures hitting the UK at the moment.....2 days to go and then back to Super strict regimes (one or two bent rules this week).

Weight today was 83.2kg which was a pleasant surprise after refusing to buy scales for 12days....so total lost is now 12.9kg and couldn't help thinking this would have been more if I'd been at home in the safety of my routines.

Anyway, only one football match, family dinner and one inflight meal stands in my way......bring it on.!!!

Day 55

Continuing to be good on the food, bad on exercise......I hope playing golf and watching football helps.

On a serious note, it's tough training on your own.....nowhere near the motivation......4 x 60sec plank on my own is tricky.

Day 52

I've gotta confess, two days and zero exercise........one day flying, and one day lying (on the couch).

Anyway, got a gym lined up for tomorrow onwards as too cold outside. Also I'm sure the use of skip ropes is still deemed a capital offense in Scotland, I'll soon find out tomorrow.

Oh and my local fishmonger force fed me some very salty, but very tasty smoked fish today...FOC, fortunately it was only a sparrow fart amount, but how could I resist....

Hope everyone else is doing better.

Day 48

Nightmare of a day in terms of PCP, ended up watching the Irish hump the Aussie's at rugger and proceeded to drink beer the whole day........feeling so so guilty today.

Day 47

I love the Kung-fu sit-ups, totally excellent......only one problem, I can't do them, ha ha.

Day 45

Timed skip ropes much easier, averaging 150 every 2min session (is that slow?).......then again i see why, exercises increased dramatically, a seriously arduous task for the best of us.

Come on, only 44 days and 16hrs to go.........streaking ahead of my expectations.

Day 41

Everyone is doing so so so well and congratulations to everyone making it this far.........this in itself is a momentous achievement (especially the 1,500 jumps tomorrow - OMG..!!!!)

Day 39

No PCP exercise today due to work and playing football.....but managed to break the amazing 10kg mark.....unbelievable, now 85.7kg, PCP results are amazing.

Day 39

Finally getting the hang of jump ropes and skipping at a reasonable speed..........no more tortoise skipping, otherwise I'm skipping for ages. Not quite Rocky, but getting there.

Day 37

Everything's going great guns, the abs are on fire and sole of my shoes are melting with skipping.....but all good fun.

Patrick mentioned more egg whites in the coming weeks....OMG, I'm not looking forward to the constant barrage of egg white upon egg white. Can't we get protein from beer or chips??

Day 32

Everything going great guns, but maybe slipped an extra 50g of veggies the nicht..........whoops......I was "Hank Marvin"...

Apart from that, all good.
