- first 50m felt great
- felt the energy levels dropping fast over the course of the 2nd 50m
- lungs were absolutely burning up in the last 50m, and my arms, shoulders, and legs were all really, really tired. That only made my form even more ugly, which in turn made it more difficult to swim through the final 50m LOL~
That last 50m was done simply out of sheer will LOL~
My old swimming coach would have been sooooo disappointed in the slob that I have become LOL~

i was only able to add another 50m at the cost of speed, which is fine by me.
week 10 check in: only down 4.6lbs, kinda disappointed but not surprised. i lost a week to bad diet and less time at the gym. i had friends visit from out of town so the routine went to shit. oh well, still gotta live my life.
after they left i got back on track!
diet: not tracking calories but roughly reduced to 1600/day. no sugar no snacking. 2 meals within a 8 hour eating window.
workout: eased up abit because i dont want to risk injury before vacation.
morning: 30 mins lighter weights superset style, 1000m swim 5 rounds of 200m continuous laps, 1 hour sauna.
15lbs to go in 4 weeks.
