Well September is over - hasn't been a great month for training or grief. Hurting my ankle mid-month put me off my feet for 9 days which still feels like a massive set back even though that's probably more in my head than anywhere else.
As for the grief it comes and goes in waves, occasionally rising from background swell to an emotional tsunami; I had a major meltdown this month and all because of a woolly glove. It's okay to have these days, you just have to recognize you're having a bad day and ride it out...it's all part of being human. The danger lies in blocking the bad days out so you end up exploding catastrophically under the pressure of putting a brave face on...on that path lies madness.
Overall a slower month than I'd hoped to have but still making slow but steady progress. For the first time in 12-18 months I'm back below 15st in weight and hoping it will stay off too, though ideally there's at least another 10 pound to come off...at least...
Boring numbers bit:
Weight 209lb (a loss of 9.8lb)
Body Fat 30.6% (a loss of 3% fat)
A long way to go before I'd describe myself as fit again but I'll get there...I made a promise...
