Day 57
Breakfast has changed forever, health is here to stay and i feel better for it. Lunch is no problem ,gym , salad ,fruit not exciting but ok. Evenings are a problem.
Especially here in HK where frankly entertainment is severely constrained by not eating or drinking.I am looking for a sustainable balance but i just dont see it yet.

Day 48
Switched to morning workouts, dont like the hours as i was up early anyway but now its just me, the bakers,other parents and people getting home from a good night out.
That said it does make you fee better for the rest of the day and if it burns fat better per minute of exertion then great, less is more.
Feel what Patrick said about the PCP valley , 90 days is looooong. I understand its about permanently changing habits and some are there already. Breakfast is back and not a double expresso and cigarette either, in fact cigarettes are gone, so is coffee until later...had to break the mould. I now have my daughter stealing my fruit, veg and eggs but not the butterless and marmiteless toast.
I can feel other priorities gradually changing too, cant say its easy but the direction is promising.

Day 41
Back on track, knee seems ok, being careful with it though, I dont want to go through that again. I did a lot of swimming the last few days instead of jumprope or running, and really enjoyed it. I havent swum regularly for years, i'd forgotton how good it makes you feel. Well worth it if u have easy pool access.
I dont think ive done much good this last week but i hope ive maintained the work done before.49 days to shift that last fat or turn it to muscle.

Day 35
Still crippled but can bend my knee a few degrees more and I have received some funny looks from taxi drivers a I lever myself in and out.
Hoping I self repair soon.Strangely I miss the exercise already and feel like I have pent up energy to be released.

day34
Serious pain,felt dodgy yesterday post exercise, woke up this morning like Herr Flick. Thats unable to bend the right knee for those of u who dont remember the antique BBC comedy classic,its amazing how many activities become painful without that movement.
I put it down to concrete in HK and RSI, skipping, running etc etc. for 34 days but it doesnt really matter. Hopefully i'm better tomorrow otherwise its a trip to the doctor, in the short term its rest, more rest and a few martinis and a bottle of wine, or as needed until pain subsides.
I'd say i was restricting myself to exercises you can only do with your hands but that would be wrong and also untrue.

Day 28
Well, 4 weeks in and it feels like a lot longer than that... but good. 89kg -6.5kg, waist - 4 inches and thats just 4 notches on my belts,I havent taken out the tape yet but I am one notch away from having to buy some new belts tho'.
Good news is a lot of my antique wardrobe has become rewareable, give it time and it might be fashionable(again).
I have plateaued, is that a word?, here for a while but generally feeling better than i have for a long time so relaxed and as per Patricks earlier mail I'm now receiving encouraging/disbelieving remarks as oppossed to huge sums of money pledged against the 90 day dream.Keep the faith PCPers...
