Happy Father's Day all you PCP Dads!

Lunch was tolerable. Hard to figure out quantities, but easy re content. Jumbo shrimp from the shrimp cocktail, then took the bits that I could out of the Cobb Salad and left the rest for my husband.  Thank you for your moral support guys. It helped a lot. Bit of a pain to explain that no I wasn't drinking, and no I really didn't want a glass of Sauvignon Blanc when in my mind I was thinking I WOULD LOVE A GLASS )&*(^&^$^&$. But, I love the concept rather than the actual wine and don't think I would enjoy the taste as I am not ready to compromise on my achievements yet.

Went skipping in the park with my husband and one of my daughters. Felt good. Steady pace whilst daughter and husband were having skipping races across the park getting very out of breath. Very, very nice to have the company.

Workout was OK, but the sit ups were pure agony in the last set. All of the last sets are hard these last few days. Still not ready to move from the incline pull-up. Not looking forward to the whole body pushups instead of my knee specials.

Here's to another new week and the last 2 days of the PCP week.

  1. Good for you Conny. Wine is a hard one I know especially on a day like today but you did really well.

    We went to our fave Thai place after the Circus and it was hard but I did it and stayed relatively PCP compliant. Hubbilicious tucked into huge plates of hot crab in a wicked looking sauce and lots of coconut based yummies. I stuck with the raw spring rolls, vegies and some steamed fish and rice. Ate very small portions and I think I did well. I don't feel bloated or bogged down so I think I succeeded.

  2. Good, that pure agony means you put in some good muscle tearing! You've hit upon a key point here, that it was the IDEA of the wine rather than the actual thing that was tempting you. You can turn that psychology the other way too, and use the IDEA of you with a fit, lean body to power your way through tough times and low energy.
