I did have a sneaking suspicion that today would be difficult. I was up early working and by the time the day was in progress I knew it was going to be a bugger to eat properly, let alone get the gym.

The gym I managed later than normal, but I just pushed myself and there I was. Which was pretty cool actually - I felt a bizarre sense of accomplishment because I was pretty sure all the forces in the universe were lining up to at the very least - give me a valid excuse to skip the gym.

Today we had a dinner at work and although I didn't bury my face in a packet of chips (I ate carrot instead) I did have very decent serve of curry. I avoided eating too much rice, but I feel mega bloated for the experience. Still I normally would have eaten at least half again so that's something.

3 glasses of red wine that wouldn't of normally touched the sides have gone straight to my head, but it had been a very light food day before that.

Stuff I did today:

Walked to and from work 3.4k approx.

Weight Session 35mins. I got in late and it was a pretty weird vibe at the gym. Lots of old blokes at this time actually (Apologies to non-old blokes who were there). I did well on the rowing machine and am looking forward to seeing how that progresses after a day of recovery on the weekend (I reckon saturday will be recovery day) and getting back on it on Sunday. Seeing some good improvements there at least.
