A good friend gave me a huge compliment today. He said that I should watch out, because soon my pants will start falling off. So I know I am winning this battle of the bulge. People are noticing, and that makes a heap of a difference to my mentality, and just motivates me to keep going. I played some squash last night, it was good fun, very exhausting, and a pretty good 40 min workout. I will be going for a swim in my lunch hour today, and hopefully at least twice a week. It makes more sense to me, plus, I'll have some more time at home to fix what needs to be fixed, and I can then swim in my lunch break, and play squash at night.
In other news, my wife is down with a bad stomach flu, I am hoping I don't catch it. Feel really sorry for her, she hates being sick, but for one or another reason she gets sick quite often.
I am really hoping Monay's weigh in will be a good one, I am working my ass off to make it that way.
That's it for now, I am off to my first lunch time swim session.

SQUASH IS BRUTAL
I got stuck at work last night, only left at 19:45. Had some healthy high protein dinner! And then on the squash courts with R. It was no joke, really battled. All land all, a very good 40 minute workout. I am sure swimming is just as bad, I just feel better in the water. Back to the pool tonight. Legs, arms and shoulders in pain today, but it is a good pain!
Have a good Wednesday.

Swimming and Winning
105.7 kg, that's where I'm at.
I'm over the moon.
Woke up this morning not really feeling it, got on the scale, saw 106.7kg and immediately I was amped to get back in the pool tonight, eat right, and get to the magical 2 digits I long for as soon as possible.
Had a double wammy workout last night. Fist went for a good 40 minute swim session, which left me exhausted. I am still cramping in the pool, but I can feel that I am getting stronger, fitter, meaner and leaner.
Then I went home, put on some fresh gear, and headed to the squash courts, build up a good sweat, and really enjoyed the outing. I'll definitely work some more squash games into my week. It's good fun, and me and my playing partner are pretty even so that makes for good intense games.
Had 2 lamb chops for dinner, a lot of water during the day, and some muesli and fruits.
All is good, I am happy.
My wife, my brother and his wife, and 4 of my mates gym in the morning. They go at 5:30. I want to join, but it's just so damn early. Looking into playing squash in the mornings rather than gym, and then I will have to do some weight exercises somewhere else in the day.
Have a good Tuesday.
