Day 5 - rock and roll

Hi - don't know what it was today. Perhaps it was having the inspirational Brian in town, maybe meeting my team buddy Aki or just something about today. I slept like a baby last night despite having to wake up to feed my daughter. My alarm woke me up which is unheard of. I ate less for breakfast and was full, I  didnt struggle to make it to lunch despite lunch being at 1pm (breakfast was 7am!) and I only ate half my lunch.

I got home much earlier - around 5.45pm and knocked the sets out quickly. Felt great - the skipping was so much better although I am still averaging only around 30 in a go and sometimes getting started is really hard! But.... the rest of it was good. I have just eaten half a salmon steak, lots of green beans, some broccoli and about a teaspoonful of rice and I am full and feel good.

Now obviously we have a long way to go and I am nervous about the real food starting but I have so much energy already its great. I know I normally feel this way when I am exercising but its great and it motivates me to try harder with the food and the exercise because well I am a believer and I know I can get myself in great shape. Oh and I had a lot of fun at work today which helps....

Oh and PS - down about 6 kgs.... wow
