AS GOOD AS IT GETS PHASE DAY 293

DVT DAY 308

Sunday A.G.A.I.G DAY 293

Sunday, and its weigh day, so I get myself to the scales first things and hop on.

94.4 Kilos

I am no longer obese, merely overweight. So although this week has not seen a dramatic drop, it is going in the right direction and I am feeling fitter, if a bit achey. That will do me for the meantime. If anything I might push the rowing time up a bit.

The rest of my day is split into two. The first half of the day I spend reading and analysing a job description, contract and work agreement. I also set up the resources for the training am doing later in the week. There is some basic admin work to do as well. The second half of the day is absolute slobbing about watching football and rugby and indulging in a tea that included carbohydrates and my weekly treat of a Mars bar ice cream. These are my weekly reward for losing weight this week. Tomorrow it will be back to protein and smoothies coupled with daily exercise.

So its a slob of a day really, a Pepper Pig lounger day. The evening will be very similar except that one of my favourite films of all time, (in my top three), In the Heat of the Night is on TV. Rod Steiger and Sidney Poitier are electrifying and the sound track is brilliant. The opening shot of the train crossing the country side with the sound track is excellent.

Tomorrow its back to the working world and the pressure to fit everything in. This hunkering down can be a challenge.
