So I got in touch with an old friend at the egg marketing board and he rustled up this promotional video for y'all to get your teeth into.

Day # 44 Does my ear canal look big in these?
I seem to have lost weight in my left ear as my headphone keeps falling out, where it used to be tight.
Who'd have thunk it!

Day # 43 Weekly weigh in.
Targets, targets, targets. Almost at day 45, which now I'm in the 40's doesn't really seem like too much of a milestone to me, I think 50 is more relevant, 60 will be awesome. That then is the begging on the home straight in my opinion. As for weight, 73.5kg this morning, down 7.6kg, only 900g this week. Seems ridiculous to say but I feel like I'm having a fat day today though, think I'm a bit backed up if you know what I mean. Even so, the weight is not moving fast enough to get through 70kg before I go on holiday on the 28th, so lets make it a 10kg loss, 71.1kg before I go on holiday, still not a given but more doable. If I could skip more I think I would have a chance, but friggin achilles still troubling me, tried yesterday for first time since Thursday and still not ready to go back... fack fack fack. Still I am enjoying my bike rides so not all bad I suppose.
So we get AS MUCH AS YOU WANT veggies for lunch. Is this to test our resolve? Not sure I really need the extra, but knowing that I can, is it going to make me weak? I am hoping we've now seen the end of the reduced weekly diet though, I don't think I could go much lower, mind you've I've been saying that since day 1 so who knows.
On a positive note, Mandy bought a bikini for our hols yesterday and she looks smoking in it. On a negative note her brother has just sent us these through the post.
What a total fucker! Ostensibly they are for Alex's birthday present, but even so, they're in the house and as we ration the kids access to chocolate, they're going to be around for a bleedin' long time!

Day # 41 The real reason to do PCP
There's a guy in my office that for several years (well forever really) has weighed less than me, the spread was once about 7kg, it's been as wide as 13kg and when I started PCP it was about 10kg. Just once, just once in my life I've wanted to weigh less than him, it's been an ongoing joke and bone of contention. Well today my friends we jumped on the scales and we weighed.....drum roll.............. exactly the same. So not quite there, but that is just a matter of time. He had a fat weekend apparently so it might not be tomorrow, but it will happen.
Then I shall call him a fat ****
Then I shall call him a fat ****
day 40 "Forgive me father for I have sinned"
We found ourselves in Pizza Express with the kids today. Now I have NEVER been in or ordered from Pizza Express and not had an American Hot, it's just the law. sooooooooooooooooo
I had a friggin salad, it did have goats cheese in it which isn't strictly PCP but hey hoo, not like I've done it before. But then came the kids desserts that came with their meal. Sam had nutella with dough balls, Alex vanilla Ice cream. I though it might be nice for Alex to have some nutella in his ice cream, he disagreed so I scooped it out on a tea spoon, Didn't really have anywhere to put it and whilst Mandy was looking for a tissue it sort of fell, ney jumped into my mouth, clean spoon, problem solved. I should have been an engineer. Then my coffee turned up with a piece of biscotti on the side, well apparently this was the long lost brother of the nutella and ice cream teaspoon, they had to reunited, as did the last dough ball on Sam's plate. They say these sins come in threes.

Day 39 Yesterday I had another case of the Fridays!
Day 38 was officially Pissy Condition Project
That's the 2nd Friday on the bounce I've felt like shite, waddupwiddat? I was knackered, hungry, my muscles ached, at work for no obvious reason my extremities were freezing cold, I now know what its like to be an old person, nothing I could do would get my fingers or toes warm. I took to holding a boiling kettle ffs, thought I was in a Japanese game show. I'm nursing an achilles twinge, which if truth be told is probably self Inflicted through overskipping. That is getting slowly worse so I have to ease off that for a few days and go do something less boring instead....sitting at home watch tv?
The only good thing was Mandy was struggling too, is that a good thing? But misery loves company as they say. After much procrastination we finally did our exercises last night together. Really happy I did now as the fog lifted a bit, no skips or floor jumps though. I went out on my mountain bike this morning which is the first time since PCP and actually it was great, made a nice change. And after a brief watch of the tour de France and seeing what those guys have to get out of bed every day to do, well this ain't too bad eh.? eh? EH?
Mentally something has switched in my head as well, I've gone from, wow look how much weight I've lost to, Christ, I've lost 7kg and I've still got a shit load more to go, How the hell did I let myself get to that point in the first place?
All in all a very strange day, I was so genki on Thursday too, so here's hoping that was a low point not to be revisited.
On another point, I just split a packet of Lays crisps into bowls for the kids. How friggin greasy are they????? I had no idea, I had to wash my hands. Mandy and I could polish off one of the biiiiig packets of those between us of an evening. Makes you think!
