I took my first bit of exercise since the accident today. My knee is still slightly stiff, and I can't kneel without a twinge of discomfort, but I decided that it was time to bite the bullet.
A few weeks of enforced rest have taken the edge off what little stamina I had – once round the park was OK, but twice would have been pushing it. Instead my second lap consisted of quick sideways jogs, a few sprints and some step-ups onto the park benches.
I'm off to Greece at some obscenely early hour tomorrow and will probably be off-line until I get back on Saturday week. The good news for anyone out there logging in on a regular basis (my apologies for the patchy blogging over the past couple of weeks) is that once I'm back I won't have any trips longer than two or three days at a time for quite a while. So normal service should be resumed shortly.

What's my blog about?
As a wine and food writer, I've stared gastronomic temptation in the face almost every working day for the past six years – and, most of the time, I've given into it. As a result not only do I no longer fit into my regular clothes, my 'fat clothes' are becoming a tight squeeze too.
This year, though, I'm going to do something about it – and I'll be recording my triumphs and tribulations on this blog, along with recipes, exercise hints and tips on getting through a restaurant meal with your dietary resolutions intact.
My hope is that those of you who are trying to shed a few pounds – and would rather gnaw off your right arm than eat flavourless diet food – will find inspiration on this site.
