A one-year experiment
My body, it turns out, never received the memo. So this is the diary: four letters a month, written while the triumphs, disasters and muscle pain are still fresh.
One email when a new weekly letter goes up, and one when the month gets its roll-up. No meal plans, no before-and-afters, no shouting.
Month 2 · Week 7
Movement is quietly becoming part of the routine: better sleep, three consecutive 10,000-step days and my longest, fastest swim yet.
Month 2 · Week 6
Barre on Mondays, 1,025 metres in the pool, two gym sessions and a formal introduction to the adductor and abductor machines. Four structured workouts, new gym vocabulary — and zero kilos lost.
Month 2 · Week 5
68,545 steps, two gym sessions, and a suitcase packed for a weekend away. Also: chevda for dinner, baked sweet potato and cauliflower, food logging, and friends who survive on an apple until 11 a.m.
