Exercise??? Me?? Really??

21 June 2021

I did a HIIT session today.  In fact I’ve done 3 HIIT sessions last week, and today is the first one of supposedly 3 scheduled sessions this week, and what I’d like to get back into weekly. Need to shed 1.5lb of fat gained at the lakes – what with all them desserts and 4 course dinners. Oooops

Am I starting to exercise regularly again?  Eh – maybe not. Let’s just leave it at that.  It might just be a temporary blip.

Truth is I haven’t really exercised over the last 5 months – yes, 5 months.  OK maybe that’s not entirely true – I did quite a bit of walking earlier in the year, there was an odd HIIT session early on, and there were definitely quite a few ‘dance-offs’ in the living room.  But that was it – nowhere near the regular exercising sessions from this time last year.  One of the reasons behind this – was that I moved house recently so my energy has been consumed with moving, painting and decorating, and that stuff.  I’ve managed to keep nearly all the weight off that I’ve lost last year – not without hard-work I might add.  Plenty of sensible eating was required. 

In the last 3 weeks I’ve gained 4lb, but that’s only because I’ve been away, staying in a hotel and pigging out on 4 course meals each evening for a week. So 4lb – I’ll take it.

Thus, here I am.  Still slimmer than I have been for a long time, more organised with my food choices, and 4 HIIT session in. 

Let’s see what happens next week….
