Disappointment, but not for long...

Yes, I was disappointed with my skin fold results! However, the mirror tells a different story. So, it just reiterates that it is important to use a variety of methods to gauge progress. ie mirror, the way your clothes fit, the scale, skin folds, the way you 'feel'. All these things will be indicative of progress. My jeans are falling off me, I'm wearing my skinny tracky daks, my upper body is showing some nice definition across chest and shoulders and my abs are coming out. The scale is also dropping and my tape measurements are too. So, I predict a much better drop in skin folds in the next 2 weeks. I sent my pics to a couple of friends who know what they are on about and got some great feedback.

I was still a bit disappointed with the skin folds, but felt much better when I received a quick email from Richie to say he was VERY happy with my photos :) Said he will provide specifics later, so I can't wait to hear what is in store for me next!

I am allowed a steak tomorrow night, we are going out for dinner. Noice, that will be something a little different :)

Web site nearly done, will send out a brief newsletter when it's up and running.

Today I did the usual cardio in the morning, and then legs later tonight. I trained well. My strength is still the same. I didn't have enough sleep last night, maybe 4.5 hours. Tomorrow is chest and tris, and of course the mandatory cardio! I feel like punching my fist in the air when the hour of cardio is done - it's such an accomplishment :)

Mum and Wes come home from NZ soon. Just in time for Mother's Day. The inlaws are coming over, so it will be a nice Mother's Day lunch :)

Still arranging tickets for INBA, so don't panic everyone - there is about 16 of us so far!
