I was very tired last night and was falling asleep while Lucy was still brushing her teeth, unfortunately my 03.00 wake-up was back. When I woke I was incredibly thirsty, although I have cut back my salt intake compared to the first few weeks, yesterday I ate a lot of salty food. It makes me question whether excess salt at night and my thirst was a driver in me waking up. This could be way off the mark, a factor or the reason? Something I will monitor, but waking in the adaptation process is not uncommon.

I was pretty tired this morning and I have ridden for the last 3 days, I want to ride tomorrow and have the van at work for bike transport, so I drove to work. I have not felt that balanced in the last few days, feeling more hungry and less satisfied, in the first few weeks I had to remind myself to eat. Not feeling satisfied after my broth I also had some of my roast pork but from past experience I need to be careful not to go too heavy on the protein.
The afternoon was again quite stressful and I could feel myself craving chocolate, on the walk to the station the smell of the caramelised nuts or sweet apple vapes were really appealing. The good news is I can feel the trigger, the urge and understand and cope with it rather than just shovelling sugar in me.
I had organised a PT session which I was really not looking forward to it, but as usual I was happy to finish it!! I had a really constructive evening, including cleat-ing up my new road winter boots which I found heavily discounted with one size left, my size :-). Tomorrow is due to be wet, so it looks like they will get their first outing.
