Still on track...

I'm still eating healthy and haven't eaten anything past 8 pm for 4 days in a row now. It's amazing how fast my body is adapting and dropping weight. I can feel it and even see it in the mirror. I now have a two pack, four more to go. Actually, I'd be happy with a semi-four pack. lol.

The one thing about not drinking beer, eating healthy and regular training is that everyday seems like "groundhog day". If your not sure what that means, watch the movie Groundhog Day with Bill Murray. The general premise is that he relives the same day over and over and over again.

That's how I feel right now. These habits are good for my body and mind, but I must admit, it's a little too stable. It's a very safe lifestyle, but not too exciting. I love excitement and mania in my life, it's part of my DNA. I wish I could figure out how to blend the two. Lord knows I've tried. But unfortunately, I'm an all or nothing kinda guy.

Today was a cooler grey day with a little rain. I got on the road by 4:30 pm and did a speed bike workout. It was a good session. I love hammering on the bike and today my legs felt strong enough to push hard enough to get my heart rate up.

A few times I got so deep in thought, that I rode some intervals longer than I should have. That would NEVER happen during running speed work, I'm always looking at the clock, I don't want to run hard any longer than I have to. Luckily I had no rain and got back before dark. I was happy with the ride and my energy level. I'm still flat, just not as flat as yesterday.

My picture of the day is where I hang up my training clothes. Some people use their stationary bikes or elliptical trainers, I have a chair. It's the only place in the bedroom that is messy. When the pile gets too big or smelly I clean it up. The beauty is that I know where everything is and Alice doesn't complain about it too much.
