Day 15 of 42
I was back down to 99.15kg today so only a 0.05kg increase this week - thats like a glass of water, so no big drama.
I measured myself today; 97cm waist and all of my other measurements were down too. The scales might not have moved, but I'm dropped some size off my stomach which is arguably more important.
I didn't get to he gym today, but clocked up over 15k steps.
Diet was good; the regular steak, slaw and salad lunch. I bought some chilli oil at the markets yesterday which adds a nice hot spice to the rice. I'm still finding the right quantities and items to mix with, but I think I'm getting close with spring onion, crushed garlic, miso paste and chilli oil. I need to be careful about the oil, I know - but right now I'm enjoying a different flavour in my rice.
We had a roast lamb for dinner which is my absolute favourite. I skipped (most) potatoes and stuck with the sweet potato and carrot instead.
Seeing 99.15kg while your waist drops to 97cm is objective proof that your body composition is shifting toward a fighter’s build despite the scale noise. I see you experimenting with chili oil to break the 'same same' fatigue, but history shows you’re prone to letting 'flavor' introduce hidden calories, so measure that oil to the gram to avoid stalling this momentum. You hit #The_Evening_Starch_Wall by keeping the sweet potato at dinner, so tomorrow, all tubers are off-limits after lunch—protein and fiber only if you want to break this 5/10 mood and see 98kg.
