Hi , from this week onwards my waking up time will also be recorded as I am trying to wake up earlier than I usually do. As of today it is 9:00 am which is too late and is causing a delay in all my activities including my breakfast and lunch timings. My target by this weekend is 7:30 am.

The weekend has been a buzz of activity with shopping, partying , more shopping and more partying. I ate all kinds of food not really part of the diet plan but stuck to portion control. Have balanced it with a lot of walking around during shopping. One the bright side played poker for the first time and guess what.. i won some $$ too. It was fun. Being a new player in the whole group, they still cannot make out my game but guess it wont be long before they do...so here to hoping i manage a few more wins before they do..:)

The weekend has been a buzz of activity with shopping, partying , more shopping and more partying. I ate all kinds of food not really part of the diet plan but stuck to portion control. Have balanced it with a lot of walking around during shopping. One the bright side played poker for the first time and guess what.. i won some $$ too. It was fun. Being a new player in the whole group, they still cannot make out my game but guess it wont be long before they do...so here to hoping i manage a few more wins before they do..:)
Retrospect : In retrospect, a good week , managed waking up early, a day at the gym, diet control and good workout. Will not stress to much on what has not been done...though done imperfectly, doing it on a regular basis counts and looks like it really helped. Checked my weight this week and it is 164 pounds, 5 pound less than when i started and thats 2 weeks since i started. So here this week ends with a very happy happy me.
