Day 21 - end of the beginning?

Final day status report:
Reaching this mile-stone now, I'm truly glad I went through this new routine and review for this 21 days.
Learn lots on how having quality meals and how making simple adjustments could make a good impact to my overall well-being and outlook to life.
As a whole, my mind is much re-charged and my body also felt healthier.
It motivates and opened my eyes to a much better lifestyle.
The benefits seen and felt makes it all worth while!
A journey well-spent!

Day 17

Current status for my day 17 of week 2 and day 2 for adapting into intermittent-fasting:
Had egg and lettuce with 1000-island sauce sandwich at around 1030 am SGT
even though I'm not hungry; felt a little lethargic after that small meal.
Happy to note that doing exercises and listening to some music help perk my energy level back up later on.

Day 15

Almost 9pm SGT here, been watching lots on youtube relating to intermittent-fasting and time just fly by so fast.
Increased my repetitions for some daily exercises as I'm seeing better muscle recovery to my current sport routine.
I know this tweak won't cause a drastic shift from skinny-to-buff physique within the 21 days;
but still it's another step closer to the lifestyle that aligns with my overall well-being.
As a whole, I'm pretty happy with my current progress.
Anyway, current status for m…
