Went and did some walking and picture taking with my wife this afternoon. The beauty of an icy beach is a breathtaking scene. ☺️

Day 265
I’m really pleased with my progress on building muscle, I was excited to be able to see some subtle improvements over the 8 days since I last took photos. Much work lays ahead but that’s ok. 🙂💪

Made a spicey Chinese egg soup last night for the first time. Went awesome!! Even managed to cook the eggs perfectly with a runny yoke like I love. The flavours of miso, spicey chili crisps, mushrooms and sriracha all perfectly balanced. Added a scoop of fresh rice once it was ready to eat. Mmmm… 🤤

Day 260
I keep telling myself I’ll give my legs a rest & then I keep going for walks and little adventures. Today my wife joined me at the frozen beach. We enjoyed going out onto the ice together. This is why I’m working hard to change my life, to enjoy the time I have fully with those I love.🙂💪

Decided to go for a walk anyway and for today’s walk I went alongside one of my favourite little spots in the area, the horribly named but stunningly beautiful Commonage Pond.

Day 258
A little video of me on my walk earlier today.

Day 258
Went for a very chilly walk down at the beach and even walk out onto the lake a little bit although gave that up fast because it was super slick ice. Gorgeous day albeit cold!

If you’ll allow me to be vain for a moment I just wanna brag about the muscle I can see in my frickin arms!!! Weight loss + strength training = buff sexy Al!! ☺️💪💪

Once again my morning workout is being delayed.

I’ve been trying to get up and workout since 6AM but this little goober keeps making herself more and more comfortable. I fear I may have to break the most sacred of cat laws; you cannot move when a sleeping cat is on you

Here’s the beautiful sounding ice I mentioned in my previous post. ☺️

Day 247
Woke up at 4AM did strength training while watching TV. Drove my wife to work & went to the beach for a walk along the shore with the ambience of the ice. What a beautiful sound and a beautiful if brisk start to my day.🙂💪

Also check this out, I can see real minuscule showing in my arms and I have a neck! I’m not a big head on big shoulders anymore. ☺️💪

Currently 544.6, on Monday I was 548.6.
At this rate I’ll be back where I was when things fell apart a couple months ago and back into getting smaller and smaller again. Sorry for my weird looking feet! haha
☺️💪

Pictures from my walk yesterday, drove to a local beach. The lake in winter is almost more beautiful than summer. No people or boats on it, just glassy smooth and undisturbed.

Some friends of a friend were kind enough to help swap the radiator on our van, hopefully this means we can get our own groceries again! ☺️🤞
