  • Back to work tomorrow.

    I had a good night sleep but I’m still feeling sick with a sore throat and coughing but not sick enough to take time off from work so I’ve given my boss a heads up that I’ll be working from home all this week. I’ve been making sure this week that I’ve been having a…

  • One more day to go.

    Finished work tonight and then went for a 11.6km walk – having been lazy for the last couple of days it was good to get back into some exercise, enjoying fresh air and do a bit of looking around to see if anything had changed in the couple of empty plots of land that are…

  • Two more days to go.

    I had an enjoyable dinner tonight – a nice balance of fresh vegetables and meat made the meal satisfying but not to the point of feeling too full. It is the one thing that I do these days when I have a dinner delivered is making sure that the meal is balanced rather than refined…

  • Almost to the weekend.

    At the half way point and feeling good – I like to have a fast on Friday, Saturday and Sunday then break the fast on Sunday night. I used to do it and I stopped but I’ve gotten back into it because I have found it as a way to reset and afterwards I feel…

  • A busy day but an enjoyable day.

    It was a fairly busy day today but on a good side I am able to work on the days when it is busy so that makes the whole experience a lot more enjoyable. Finished work at 10pm, went for a 11.6km walk and I have to admit I really didn’t feel like going for…

  • A couple more days to go.

    Work today was so-so and I finished it up with an 11.6km walk tonight along with some free weights when I got home (on top of the ones I had done during my breaks while working from home). I’m looking forward to getting the week over and done with but on a good side I…

  • First day back in the office went well.

    Finished work tonight at 10pm however rather than taking the train I ended up having to take the bus replacement which wasn’t so bad after all. As for some exercise today, I got off at the train station that is 3 stops from where I live so then I could squeeze in a 2.9km walk.…

  • Almost there.

    Had a good day at work, finished off some work and then went for my nightly walk and during the day I did some free weights on my break. As for my meal schedule, once again I stuck to it with a continual reminder to myself about the goal I’m trying to reach by the…

  • Back to work on Wednesday.

    I had a good walk tonight of 11.6km and the weather was good – warm but not hot when compared to the walk down to the bakery when I picked up a late lunch. I’ve got my laptop bag and swipe card all organised as well as lunch too because last week I forgot all…

  • A strange night sleep.

    I had a bit of a late night because I got stuck into a binge watch of Fallout season 2 and had a small sleep then I woke up early but couldn’t get to sleep so I then went for a walk at around 6am. It is surprising the number of people out at that…
