Here's where I started back on Sept 17:

And here's where I was yesterday on December 12:

Miles to go? Absolutely. But a serious start.

Before and after:

And the obligatory old clothes shots...

Stats and thoughts on the project to follow after I've had a few days to digest it all.

over already?

Is today really the last day? I'm confused. This feels like it has been going on forever, but also feels like it just started. So tomorrow I have no grams? No workout pdf? Back into the real world, wow. Going to be interesting.

Not on the workouts, just on the blogging.

Yesterday was the first of the supersets. I'm a fan. Exhausted by the end of it, but like the switching around and variety. Cardio, on the other hand, still is awful. An hour a day is just too much. But not for the next two days. For two days it is perfect.

Food is good. Exercise is good. The amount of time it all takes is bad. Nothing new with all that. Heading out to workout now then there will only be two left. Awesome.

tired

Workouts continue to get harder, and more importantly longer. Taking over an hour and a half to get through it at this point. I'm back to the old standard of having zero free time. I feel the changes going on though. Lots of fat still floating around, but there's actually a frame of muscle under that now and it feels good. Just over a week left, going to finish strong.

After that is going to be a very different situation with 5 bonenkais/parties/dinners in a week. I'm really interested to see how that plays out. I'm not too worried. I don't plan on being overly conservative, I don't plan on thinking that much about it while I'm out and doing. Just in between the events eat reasonably and keep working out (just not for well over an hour a day, will be nice to get some sort of life back). I also don't think that new me will go as far off the deep end as old me did. I don't think there's anything wrong with having a total blowout once in a while, but I'm seriously out of practice.
