All sounding very yummy. I really love flapjack, I think you did really well to stop at one to be honest Also thumbs up for not having a treat in starbucks yesterday! Even if you're not hitting a 70syn week, you're still on track..... I hope the pain is settling and the specialist can do more for you next week.

Enjoy the rest of the weekend

Good to 'see' you back! Sounds like you had a good time, especially where the running is concerned I've been toying with trying a run again, not been since I had issues with my knee last year. I was told I should start on the treadmill but we do have alot of flat routes here, so I could have a go if I really wanted to. I'm so impressed that you've built up to 12mins. That must feel like real progress

Your damage limitation looks good. Plenty of melon and water should help!
