Day 4
Hmm. Things are okay. My calf is getting better and I did about two miles' worth of limping around today. It was just nice to be moving around outside. I want to start up my old strength routine. I can hardly remember what it included! Squats, push-ups, sit ups, leg raises, dips, curls... I think that was it. No, I did reverse crunches too... urgh, so much to remember! And when it was at its longest, it took me like 40 minutes to get through. That's ages! My girlfriend would stay in bed reading while I would grunt occasionally from the floor. Apparently it was hot that I was getting all strong but she was probably only saying that to keep me in a good mood so I would get her a cup of tea. Which I would, without prompting. Ah, I miss being a whipped little bi- anyway, enough reminiscing! I'm doing so because my bedroom has just been redecorated and I'm finding a lot of things that have a lot of memories for me; a lot of memories involving exes. Ah well.
I've been using SparkPeople and I'm doing okay. It's a bit time-consuming, though, and I'm sure I've already said loads that I don't want this to be something I'll obsess over. The weird thing is that I've been logging my calories and they have been so low. Under 1000 the last three days. I wouldn't have known if it hadn't been for that site; I'm eating loads and loads and feeling good about it. But I guess because the majority of my intake is fruit and vegetables that it just doesn't add up to that much. I don't know if I should do anything about it. I think if I need more food, my body'll ask for more and I'll happily provide it. Still, it's strange. Then again, I am totally sedentary at the moment. I think I'll be fully healed by Friday so thank feck for that. I'm looking forward to getting back to running so much; and I want to start swimming a couple of times a week too. And then there's all my walking, which I've been gutted that I've not been able to do. Can't wait to start again! Then I'll feel like I'm doing all of this properly.
