Day 50 has a big emotional impact on me. I don't think I'm ready to race through the next 40 days if they pass as quickly as the last 50. I may not be ready to stop PCP..... or is that part of the plan?
Major jetlag. Nevertheless, I slept 11 hours last night so must have been very, very, very tired. Luckily my children are old enough to fend for themselves. Went to bed at midnight as was too tired to keep my eyes open and my 10-year old was still wide awake. So left her watching TV. They didn't sleep 11 hours unfortunately, but before you think that they went hungry and unnoticed for all of that time, we do have a helper who caters to their needs. So heaven for me. Woke up incredibly hungry as had slept so much in the afternoon too that I only had time during my waking hours for lunch plus one fruit snack and egg white. Breakfast was delicious. I really missed my Japanese brown rice. And steamed carrots. Hard to steam veggies if you don't have a metal sieve or steamer... may need to take one to Bali with me to avoid that problem again.
Not sure if it is the major jetlag, incredible change in humidity or the after effects of my foray into wine, but the workout today was hard, very hard. Sweated buckets, but tried not to drink. Gave up after the pistol squats as I nearly keeled over in a faint. Not sure how much "not too much" water is when you are sweating buckets. By the time I got to the V-sits I was actually thinking to myself that I actually liked them. Maybe it is because I absolutely detest the plank. I think my core is improving, but every time I do the plank I can only do it for a max of 20 seconds, and at the end only 10 seconds. Doesn't bode well now that we have to do 60 second planks. They make me cry every time.
One thing that helped my workout after listening to the Black Eyed Peas and Katy Perry for my skipping (which gratifyingly resulted in a major increase in reps) was to switch to Vivaldi. The boom-boom music was just not working fro me. Have never worked out to classical music in my life. What am I becoming? A totally different person!
