Thank you, it’s great to be back

Hi everyone, my first week back in the fold, had a **** 18 months in lockdown, let my diabetes get out of control, piled on the weight, and felt absolutely ****. After being told by the Nurse I needed to take back control I started back on low carbs, came on here, got some great supportive...

Hi, type 2, controlling by diet and exercise, lost my way during lockdown, got depressed, stopped exercising, put on weight, got more depressed, stopped denying myself food I liked so put on more weight etc etc. Upshot is I’ve just had my check up and I’m 27kg heavier than my pre lockdown weight...

50 mile ride last week and tore my hamstring, so no exercise until today after go ahead from physio, an hours Zumba (my first session, great fun, highly recommended) and then an hours Pilates. Feeling sore but happy [emoji106]

Pilates last night was wonderful, still the only guy in the class but felt so relaxed afterwards and fell into a deep sleep which lasted 9 hours. Heaven
