SA VERY EASY YET VERY HARD!!

Three days since i have arrived in SA and man its good to be back home with family, leading a somewhat normal life away from the craziness of hong kong. Here for seven more days - I've found certain things about PCP so easy here, yet other things incredibly difficult! 

The easy
- workouts seem 100x easier - I'm putting it down to the amount of space, clean air, plenty of time and very good R&R. 25 degrees, sunny and blue skies are a good incentive to get out of bed and start one's day vs a computer screen!
- Food and cooking are really easy here... the cost & availability of ingredients, ripe fresh fruit & veg is awesome (AVOCADO, BUTTERNUT, GEM SQUASH AND WHITE GRAPES!) plus having the time to cook all this stuff is a massive plus. Meals are good and if anything i am overfull

The hard
- well its just one thing - and its food. SA and Durban  in particular has, an abundance of great food and a serious social braai (barbeque) culture.
While its super easy cooking and getting the food, and avoiding the booze around the fire,  there has been a lot of household favourites that i am agonising, not being able to sink my teeth into. All the seafood hangouts by the sea! (as durbs people bath the stuff in lemon butter!) Woolworth's chicken pies, Biltong, Boerewors, garlic bread, potato bake...  man its tough !

Well time to sign out,  feeling good , and the 10 day detox thus far has been great. No massive noticeable body changes, though i am down 2kg's, but i feel more energetic and am sleeping better at night.

My  lunch today
2 piece Low GI wholegrain bread, Avo, loads of Salad Peppers, tomato, read onion, with some smoked chicken on top.. charts!
