Thursday
Gym
Diet
Almost exactly the same as yesterday- I had my proteins already cooked, and ingredients at hand were the same. I suppose I eat slightly more seared vegetables with my salmon in the evening. But no slippage at all, and it was honestly pretty easy. Today will be a semi-cheat day. I might have a small snack before the gym, and I will go out with a friend tonight and eat and drink.
I weighed myself yesterday, and I was 77.5kg. On Saturday, I was 80.5kg- using the same scales, wearing the same clothes (underwear only). Obviously you can't lose 3kg of weight in 5 days unless you have super-powers (23,100 accumulated calorie deficit is kind of difficult to achieve in 5 days unless you can transform into fire or run at super speed). So I guess that when I weighed myself on Saturday I was retaining a lot of water. Maybe it was from all the booze I had in the airport the day before. Realistically I've only done enough to burn about 1.5lbs. Lucky this is pretty easy, as it will probably take the best part of a month to get where I want to be.
