Day 27: Sleepless in Tokyo

Put off exercising all day as was so intimidated. Managed to get out at 10pm. 1,200 skips painful as the first  100 had me stumbling about every other jump. But the actual exercises were not as bad as I had anticipated. The double katana did not make me cry, but I think I killed a lamp in the corner of the room with my glare. V-sits so not wonderful, but am gritting my teeth as I want to desperately get rid of the tummy which was a gift from 2 C-sections.

It continues to be hard going in the humidity, but at least it wasn't raining when I was running around the streets skipping. Running slowly.

Very much liking my food and it has become second nature to weigh it all out. Still shocked by how little 70g of protein is.

One lesson learned today. If you exercise late, it stimulates too much. Went to bed 30 minutes after I had finished total workout and am now sitting here at 4am blogging as I can't sleep. Body very relaxed, but mind going a million miles an hour. Contrary to what a lot of other members have been putting in our e-mail trail, I have never slept as well as I have since starting PCP.

  1. Any exercise after about 8pm and I have a terrible time sleeping also. I much prefer the dawn exercise routine but sometimes we have to be flexible. Hope you got some sleep and feel good for Tuesday.

  3. Yeah, the endorhphins will keep you up if you workout too late. Now you know!

    As far as intimidation, we had a PCP group a few rounds ago who always left JFD on each others blogs. The meaning? Just Fucking Do IT!
