Day 90 finally arrived

So here we are, day 90 has arrived and we have finally finished, who would have thought what changes can happen during that time.

It was not as hard as l thought it would have been, what was needed was dedication, termination and will power, although reading some of my blogs there where times l was having doubt, (mainly due to starting a new job and have irregular hours).
So who would have thought a chef would have the balls to go on a 90 day program surrounded by food, booze all day and not being able to eat, having to pass up on prosciutto, salami, cheese, nice tender steaks am still blown away by the 3 x 500 gm steak 4 men ate. The desserts all full of sugar, tiramisu, panna cotta, baked ricotta cheese cake. Well it happened and l now have a new body for it.

Day 1

New gut

I would have never thought that the equipment as simple as a rump rope, bands, a set of scales, and pull up bars can improve ones body.

I would like to thank Richard G for inspiring me, giving me updates on what progress changes the body will be going thru, introducing me to PCP, Patrick for running the program and the work outs we did at the studio in Yokohama, l still recall Patricks voice at one of the work outs yelling at me "Hey Tony what are you doing go harder man" not to mention in the weekly video when l was moaning about egg white dinners, saying l had a lot of fat to get rid off around the gut, and yes it has gone away.

Lori my partner in crime we did it, loved the work outs in the park, the laughing and moaning and groaning, bitching that we used to be in the bars drinking, instead we where working out in the park,did not like being bitten by the blody mosquitto.I have a bottle of Opus one waiting for us!!

Geenie and Wei for you posts and inspiring baking.

Theo for the encouragement and love of food, cooking with the pizza oven you come to mind and it brings a smile to my face as well, it felt like you where here In Tokyo with us.

Molly for your kind words and ispriation getting me thru some tough times.L will send the flour less choc cake receipe in another blog.

My fellow PCPers loved the questions that where being asked, Hope you enjoyed some of my cooking tips at the start of the program.
My tokyo friends who l call my family, Mariana, Heather, Steve for the sunday nigth dinners, Lowly, ( mr Python is done) Brian my flat mate, we will be having normal meals again at home.

I hope people enjoyed my blogs and sense of humor on the updates from the work outs, making use of space in the kitchen,the train, am now awear of what injury the ropes cause on the male genitalia, new PCP be careful when anchoring the ropes behind a door make sure it is closed other wise you are in for a nice surprise.
