Both bags, one go
Noahpleased energy 4turning point
Well then. Full shift on my feet and my knees did not stop me. That has not happened in about four years. Cycled to work for a full month of shifts. Up the stairs at…
The shame was the worst of it
Aleksrelieved energy 3turning point
Short one tonight. Starting from the bottom again, which my prescriber was firm about and which I am now grateful for. Restarted after the gap and the side effects…
Flat, whole night
Ammigrateful energy 2
Short one tonight. Tied my own laces standing up. I am aware of how that sounds and I do not care. Full shift on my feet and my knees did not stop me. That has not…
What is your secret
Casswarm energy 5
Recording this for the record. A wedding. Three courses I could not face, a table of people who noticed, and a very kind waiter who boxed it up without saying a word.…
Where the pen lives
Catoorganised energy 5
New sharps bin, and a plan for what happens to it when I move in September. Batch cooked on a good day for the bad days. Six labelled boxes in the freezer and a great…
Three cool bags and a thermometer

A gentle week, mostly. New sharps bin, and a plan for what happens to it when I move in September. Batch cooked on a good day for the bad days. Six labelled boxes in…
Circle tonight
Minniesteadied energy 2turning point
This week: The facilitator stopped the room when four of us were talking at once and asked one person how she was actually doing. It changed the whole hour. Thyroid…
A1c down
Obipleased energy 3turning point
Recording this for the record. Iron and B12 both low. Treated. The difference in a fortnight was not subtle. A1c down. Everything stable. She said come back in a…
Slept through
Petuatired energy 4
The sleep has changed shape rather than improved. Different, not better, and I cannot yet tell whether I mind. Slept through. Whole night, no waking. It has been so…
Protein first
Posysteady energy 5
Greek yoghurt, eggs, and the limits of both. I have reached the limits of both. I have found five things I can get down when nothing appeals and I have written them…
The changing room
Soniatired of it energy 1turning point
Sitting down to this properly tonight. Somebody said I looked well and it landed like an indictment of every year before. A difficult month when customers commented.…
Two flights of stairs
Tansyquietly delighted energy 4turning point
Slept flat. Whole night. Flat. Stood a full ten-hour bake without her back going. Swam. First time since school. Two lengths, badly, grinning. Full shift on my feet…
Two sessions
Tobiastired but good energy 1
Two sessions this week, both short, both done. Ren keeps saying that two a week for two years beats a perfect programme abandoned in March, and he is annoyingly…
Quiet
Wystanflat energy 5
I nearly did not write this week because there was nothing in it. Then I thought about how much I have got out of other people's boring weeks. Quiet. Injection…
She noticed first
Ashwinheld energy 1
Three things this week. She had a bad week and I had a fine one, and next month it will be the other way round. That is the whole mechanism. Paired up. We text on…
Two lengths, badly
Baypleased energy 5turning point
Sitting down to this properly tonight. Got down on the floor and back up again unaided. I have not been able to do that since 2021 and I did it twice more just to…
Before nine
Bodhisteady energy 5
Was undereating without realising. The nurse asked a plain question about what I had actually eaten in the last two days and I heard my own answer. Got something with…
Two flights of stairs
Brunopleased energy 3
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 able to do that since 2021 and I did it…
Somebody new
Clemmiewarm energy 2
Circle tonight. Eight of us, an hour, and about eleven minutes of actual information. The rest was the point. Went for the practical answers and stayed for the…
Across the day
Gwensteady energy 4
Got something with protein in before nine this morning, which meant the rest of the day did not fall apart at four. Greek yoghurt, eggs, and the limits of both. I…
Eight minutes and a chair
Junipertired but good energy 4
Walked instead of the bus all week. Not a programme. Just walking. Came back after a bad fortnight without trying to make up the lost ground, which is the thing that…
Both bags, one go
Maritpleased energy 3
This week: Sat on the floor and played for an hour, and then got up. That was the entire reason I started, and I have now done it. Full shift on my feet and my knees…
Sunday night, four lines
Tedheld energy 2
This week: My buddy noticed something in my journal before I did and asked me a very gentle question about it. Paired up. We text on Sunday nights, four or five lines…
She stopped the room
Zebwarm energy 3
Week in order: Circle tonight. Eight of us, an hour, and about eleven minutes of actual information. The rest was the point. The facilitator stopped the room when…
