It’s Friday, and this is a big test because this is usually when my “cheat day” turns into a “cheat weekend.” I’ve been doing well this week, but Friday is often when things start to slip.
Yesterday wasn’t supposed to be a workout day, but I did go to my wife’s office and spend 30 minutes on the bike. That’s one of the advantages of being married to someone who owns a physical therapy clinic. She’s got all kinds of equipment.
Yesterday’s Activity
- ✅ Stationary bike: 30 minutes
Now, last night I didn’t do the best with food. I really wasn’t motivated to cook, so we got KFC. Clearly, that wasn’t on the meal plan, but remember, this isn’t about perfection. It’s about accountability and progress.
That makes today even more crucial. It’s not to say I can’t have a nice meal that I enjoy tonight. It does mean I can’t overdo it like I frequently do. One meal doesn’t have to turn into an entire weekend of eating whatever I want.

Today’s Plan
Quite honestly, I haven’t even decided if I’m going to the gym today. I kind of want today to be more free-flowing to see how I do. No scheduled workout, no exercise checklist to complete. I’ll keep focusing on eating right, moving throughout the day and the other habits I’ve been working on this week.
We’ll see how it goes and report back tomorrow. That’s the whole point of this experiment.
