During my holiday, I indulged in alcohol, crisps, cookies and loads of carbs.  While it did cause some damage, it wasn’t as bad as I’d feared.
We discussed my goals for the year and how we’d achieve them. He was worried I might be developing dysmorphia and warned me about the signs I was showing…

Notes to me-self

Other than Mathias knackering me legs on Tuesday, all were reet.

I’ll have to mull ower Eric’s comment, him sayin’ I might be gettin’ a bit of dysmorphia like.

In me noggin I know I ought to be comparin’ me-sen wi’ folk me own age when it comes to shape an’ fitness.

Need to get back to why I’m doin’ all this, dun’t I now.
