Well, I’m still alive, after thinking I’d have just 12 hours to live after my intense leg workout yesterday. Yes, they are sore, but not as sore as I thought they’d get, in fact, I even went for a nice walk (how interesting). The worst part of the walk was actually walking back with the groceries - not so kind to my other muscles which are still extremely sore.

Anyway, more important news, the diet and workouts are making a difference which is a huge relief as I was getting worried that nothing was happening. Whilst there isn’t much noticeable visible difference (body is the same, underwear is new but looks the same, and my hair is a couple of millimeters longer), according to the stats I have increased in weight since yesterday (muscle mass) meaning I am now 3 pounds heavier than I was on Day 1.

Here are the stats: (I need to lose the habit of being obsessed with these - but NO!)

• HEIGHT - 5 feet 11 inches / 181 cm
• WEIGHT - 61.2 kg (+1)/ 135 lbs (+3)
• BODY FAT % - 8.4 (+0.4)
• BODY WATER % - 63.7 (-0.1)
• MUSCLE MASS - 53.3 kg (+0.8)/ 117.4 lbs (+1.6) (Physical Rating - 7 - Thin)
• BONE MASS - 2.8 kg / 6.2 lbs (I doubt this will change much anyway)
• MINIMUM ENERGY REQUIRED (BMR) - 1673 kcal (+23)/ 7000 kJ (+96)
• METABOLIC AGE - 12
• VISCERAL FAT RATING - 1 (out of a possible 59 - I have the lowest possible rating)

Tomorrow is a workout day so I have to get some decent sleep now.
