Flu really sucks. Left work early yesterday feeling like absolute crap and went to bed around 7ish, body temperature dropping like crazy. Lay there for a couple of hours shivering under two duvets and in my ski suit (in HK!). Then the darling wife brought restorative yoghurt and 'nanas. Soon temperature started climbing and finally around midnight I was more or less back to normal....And apart from a few small aches and pains and a mega runny nose, this morning I feel a billion times better and almost ready to jump back on the PCP wagon. Even the pain in my ankles and knee has miraculously disappeared after about 10 days of agony, although I'm a bit nervous about picking up the rope again - will do my best to find other stuff to do as the knee joint is just not really up to it after ACL/meniscus operation a few years ago.
I've made precisely zero progress this week for all sorts of reasons, but at least I haven't gone backwards - progress for the month as a whole wasn't at all bad, but I did hope to lose 10k instead of just 7k. Will take it easy again today and make sure I'm over the worst of it, but will be giving it some over the weekend to jumpstart the progress again....
At least you got the knee rested! Congratulations on the 7 kg - what's this 'only?!'. Celebrate it, give yourself a pat on the back for staying focussed!
ReplyDeleteBuck up dude, I'm worried far too much of that 7kg was muscle. Work hard and go for 7 perfect days, every gram and every rep on the nose.
