SECOND SUMMARY

     Day 18 89.90kg                     Day 9 92.10kg                    Day 0

As the beginning, so the continuation, the saying goes, which I don't really agree with, I mean, I think all proverbs are nonsense. But in my case, it exceptionally fit this time.

Because on the first day, I already put my week on the rails of failure, and then, to top it off, unable to control myself, I went for a run on my rest day.

My challenge was extended by two days, so we are now talking about 66 days. This week was about crossing psychological boundaries and breaking my records. As you can see, I snuck under 90 kg. I broke my distance records in running 3 times, and if God wills it – whom I ask at this point, please don't stand in my way this one time – so if all goes well, I will cross the 20-day threshold I hinted at. However, my weight loss, which was plummeting last week, seems to be slowing down. This week I "only" lost 2.20 kg. My body reacted to the changed state and fully pulled the handbrake. After all, I decided not to move the diet change forward, and I will do the radical part for the originally planned 24 days, meaning another 6 days. I want to go down to 85-86 kg, and from there just build, transform the remaining excess into muscle.

I analyzed my Day 18 picture a little more closely. What I'm not satisfied with, I highlighted in red, and what I am, in green. I can only guess, but I almost certainly gained 3 kg of muscle, but the lower part of my abdomen is outrageously bad.

What awaits me. Next week I'm switching to the new diet, as soon as that happens, I'll post it here too. This week I ran 24 km. I'm almost certain I won't be able to beat that, but I think I'll do the Buda Castle section on the first run next week. Swimming will also start next week, meaning after six days of training, there will be swimming on one of the rest days, one or two km, I don't know yet. As for the gym, I'm increasing the weights. I feel the current load is too light, and that's a sign that I need to level up.

39.299 km running, 8 gym workouts, –6.40 kg so far in 18 days.

UPDATE: I received some feedback (4) that, contrary to my promise last week, I didn't take the current photo from the same mirror. Fair enough, for the next 6 weeks, I promise to use the home mirror. I can't change this one now because I'm already on day 22, so where would I take the picture now?

Mics: but you didn't even take the next picture from the same spot

Mics: that's what pisses me off the most
