A one-year experiment
My body, it turns out, never received the memo. So this is the diary: four letters a month, written while the triumphs, disasters and muscle pain are still fresh.
One email when a new weekly letter goes up, and one when the month gets its roll-up. No meal plans, no before-and-afters, no shouting.
Month 3 · Week 9
A first gym date with a very strict (unpaid) instructor, 12,093 steps a day, seven out of seven 10k days—and a brand-new muscle vocabulary.
Month 2 · Week 8
Four workouts, 61,091 steps and 57 lengths of the pool—plus a Bogotá shopping trip that proved plus-size activewear is still a mission.
Month 2 · Week 7
Movement is quietly becoming part of the routine: better sleep, three consecutive 10,000-step days and my longest, fastest swim yet.
