Feeling a bit more like the old me

Just got back from circuits which were good, even if there are definitely still things I can't do. Most of the static exercises like squats, press-ups and crunches were fine, but I've still got tightness in my hamstrings, as proved during the shuttle runs and alternating lunges. I was kind of thinking I might be ready to go back to running next week, but maybe not just yet. It was good to get a sweat on again though, and I've booked in for spinning tomorrow, even though I'm just going to take it easy.

I've also bought 2 new bikinis and some board shorts for the beach - can't wait for them to arrive so I can see how they fit and get some motivation to keep going.

I'm having a bit of an inadvertent cleansing day food-wise, as my appetite seems to have deserted me. I'm not pushing it though, just eating some healthy stuff as and when I feel hungry ... and on that basis, I'm off to make some soup now for later.
