Ive noticed some changes. Some good, some b- https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤔" title="Thinking face" aria-label="Emoji: Thinking face"> ok not bad but not ideal.

Good
* Mental health improved
* Increased energy
* Better sleep / self care
* Better food choices

Meh
* Shape change
* Slight weight loss
* Couple sprains
* Knee issue

So to combat the "Mehs" I have:

* Teefed my Mama& #39;s knee brace (she also suffers with a dodgy knee - hers right, mine left.)
* Adapted workouts
* Watched tutorials to try improve technique
* Researched foods for weight gain
* Upped my food intake (well trying!)

Everyone knows Im TERRIBLE with proper meals. I rarely have a proper breakfast. I MIGHT have lunch. I do actually have dinner (most days) but one thing I dont fail on is snacking https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤦🏽‍♀️" title="Woman facepalming (medium skin tone)" aria-label="Emoji: Woman facepalming (medium skin tone)">

Well that has changed. I hardly snack now. Well not on bullshit anyway. And i drink more water!

Lunch - scrambled eggs, whole avo, tomatoes, halloumi
Snack - nuts (might have some yogurt and fruit)
Dinner - tbc but either mackerel or salmon with lots of veg, salad and potatoes.

Cooling down after weight training the other day. I actually enjoy the warm up and cooling down just as much as the workout. Ive been doing long walks. 5km, then 7km (our happy medium) and our biggest achievement is 10km (which we try do weekly). Im much fitter these days https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤸🏽‍♀️" title="Woman cartwheeling (medium skin tone)" aria-label="Emoji: Woman cartwheeling (medium skin tone)"> https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🏋🏽‍♀️" title="Woman lifting weights (medium skin tone)" aria-label="Emoji: Woman lifting weights (medium skin tone)">

I might add to this thread. I might not. But this was mainly to reflect on what ive done so far. I started this in April. My skin is clearer. My mood is balanced. Im enjoying foods better, drinking water & resting well. Im LISTENING to my body.
