Weird. Had a major health scare a few weeks back, quite a few sleepless nights, and decided to take my health seriously. Cut out excess sugar and fizzy drinks (I still snack on nuts and fruit), and only one major meal a day (can be anything).

20mins pilates every morning, 1hr cardio at the gym or other fitness class almost everyday. I've lost 6kg in 24 days. I feel sore, but great. In a month I'll be down to 9 1/2 stone.

Went on a date last weekend with an absolute beauty and it went really well (we scavenged a freecycle table using a locked ebike). I'm just... happy?

Work is work, but I'm less affected by it

That's great progress! Sorry to hear about your health scare though.

Great news mate, long may it continue!

Thanks! I think she might be a keeper, she satisfies the holy trifector of: stunningly beautiful, independent and driven, and can teach me so much and is happy to learn in return

I'm in cloud cuckoo land, but keeping my adoration in check so as not to frighten her
