It’s been a little over one week with my new relationship with food and exercise.

I don’t want to call it diet, because that implies that I will revert to form after I’ve maybe reached my ‘target’.

I can absolutely feel the difference and the scales are certainly confirming the difference - while modest overall, is a major shift for me as I have genuinely struggled to reach just this point for seemingly years. I am genuinely excited to track the changes week on week.

Have I missed anything during this time? Not a thing. I’ve enjoyed every main meal that I have had. Breakfast feels light and lunch doesn’t have the same ‘heaviness’ ever again. Cutting out bread from every meal really wasn’t that hard - I now have it as part of a special meal on weekends.

I thought my five Tibetan exercises would be more difficult, but again, using the water boiling for my coffee means I get an awesome gift of coffee after I’ve completed the exercises. I do lunges when I make afternoon coffee.
