Protein first
Nixsteady energy 2
Recording this for the record. Protein first, everything else after. It is not interesting advice and it is the only advice that has changed anything. Was undereating…
A wedding
Sadiewarm energy 2
Ten minutes then I am asleep. Sunday lunch at my grandmother's. Small plate, long afternoon, no drama, and she was happy. Somebody asked what my secret was and I…
I nearly did not write
Sorayasteady energy 3
Short one tonight. Nothing to report. Writing it down anyway, on the theory that a journal made only of eventful weeks would give a false impression of the whole…
Eight minutes and a chair
Tobytired but good energy 1
Ten minutes then I am asleep. Eight minutes and a chair. That is the whole programme. Tuesday and Friday. I have done it for eleven weeks. Grip strength has gone off…
No news

Two lengths, badly
Bayquietly delighted energy 1
Sitting down to this properly tonight. Carried both bags up in one go. Small thing. Wrote it down. Got down on the floor and back up again unaided. I have not been…
Starters as a main
Bowarm energy 2
Sunday lunch at my grandmother's. Small plate, long afternoon, no drama, and she was happy. My mother cooks. That is how she says it. So I eat what I can, slowly, and…
A slower schedule
Bodhisteady energy 5turning point
Sitting down to this properly tonight. Holding at this step for another month. I would rather be here comfortably than one step further and wrecked. A very slow…
Both bags, one go
Bunnyquietly delighted energy 2
Swam. First time since school. Two lengths, badly, grinning. Slept flat. Whole night. Flat. Breakfast shift.
A rough few days
Catorough energy 1turning point
Bad week and I am writing it down anyway, because a journal that only contains the good weeks would be a lie and no use to anybody reading it later. Two sentences.…
Nothing to report

Nothing to report. Writing it down anyway, on the theory that a journal made only of eventful weeks would give a false impression of the whole thing. An unremarkable…
Three years side by side
Gwendarelieved energy 2
Bloods back. Unremarkable, she said, which is a word I had never once heard applied to me. A1c down. I looked at the number for a long time and then rang my mother,…
Nine minutes
Héloïsebrisk energy 2
Nine minutes. I took three written questions and got three answers, which is the best return I have ever had from an appointment. Took the diary in. She read it…
Nothing to report
Nanfine energy 2
This week: No news. The dog is well, the weather has been foul, and I have taken my medication on the correct day for the eleventh week running. An unremarkable week.…
A new bin and a plan
Nedorganised energy 1
A quiet week. Batch cooked on a good day for the bad days. Six labelled boxes in the freezer and a great deal of smugness. Small logistics win: worked out where the…
Sunday night, four lines
Nettieheld energy 2
Nobody has ever asked me how I was doing on a Wednesday before. My buddy noticed something in my journal before I did and asked me a very gentle question about it.…
Across the day
Rafesteady energy 2
A brief account of the week. Got something with protein in before nine this morning, which meant the rest of the day did not fall apart at four. Spread it across the…

Rillafine energy 3
Quick one. An unremarkable week. Ate, walked, worked, slept adequately. This is what most of it looks like. No news. The dog is well, the weather has been foul, and I…
A plain question
Ruthiesteady energy 1
A brief account of the week. Spread it across the day instead of trying to do it all at teatime and everything got easier. Was undereating without realising. The…
I told her
Salmabetter energy 3turning point
Told my prescriber rather than waiting to see. That is new for me and it is entirely down to something someone said in circle. Wrote about what being challenged was…
An unremarkable week
Sorrelsteady energy 1
No news. The dog is well, the weather has been foul, and I have taken my medication on the correct day for the eleventh week running. Quiet. Injection Tuesday, mild…
Back without making it up
Taviatired but good energy 5
Evening. Kept the two sessions that matter and dropped the two that were vanity. Fewer, heavier, done. Eight minutes and a chair. That is the whole programme. Tuesday…
A new bin and a plan
Theaorganised energy 3
Small logistics win: worked out where the pen actually lives in a fridge shared with four other people and a toddler's yoghurts. Two lines a day in a paper diary.…
Grip
Annatired but good energy 4
A brief account of the week. Two sessions this week, both short, both done. Ren keeps saying that two a week for two years beats a perfect programme abandoned in…
