Rest day today but ended up going for a looooong walk with Nancy, Chloe and max. Lots of steps, we went for a cheeky breakfast, been a loooong time since I did that so that was thoroughly enjoyed. Shopping for food all done, house cleaned and all set for the week ahead. Time to chill now.

Great day today with max and Chloe coming down to visit – Nancy, me and them went to the shed which was class. Always a good vibe on a weekend. Had a good few dog walks and went out for steak this evening which was unreal. Tomorrow going for a nice walk in the morning, a longer one. The a rest day and chill – back to the rat race Monday 🙏

Got max and Chloe heading down this evening to stay for a couple of days, looking forward to some social time, training tomorrow and out for a nice steak meal tomorrow night. Going to be nice. We’ve lined out splits up so me and max are on delts and tri. And Nancy is going to train with Chloe. Should be interesting haha. Anyway, excited 🙂

Ugh day 3 of no vaping and finding it hard I won’t lie. Got the patches on and just got some Nicorette gum today which seems to be helping a bit. Apparently the first few days are the hardest.

Little bit off topic maybe. But I’m quitting vaping this week coming. I’ve done it for nearly 2 years now mainly because of prep but it deffo has a negative effect on my appetite when trying to eat like now so that aswell as I want to obviously not smoke/vape for the health reasons too. So taking the first step and quitting next week … wish me luck 🙏

I don’t mean to sound insensitive as I don’t know the full picture, if there is one. But can you expand on what you mean by not mentally being able to do a cut?
