Quarantine: it does a body good?

[sistawendy]

Physically I'm finding that shelter-in-place agrees with me. I've lost the five pounds I wanted to lose because the only snacks I keep here in the Devil Girl Pad are veggies, and I've been cooking at home much more often. Knees? Better than they've been since '17. Bunion? Likewise, but I've found that wearing heels or pointy shoes sets me back for a few days; that will have to become something I do only on special occasions.

And on a perhaps related note, I'm remarkably horny lately, even on the back half of my two-week injection cycle. Maybe it's the warmer weather, maybe it's being cooped up alone most of the time.

I'm exercising damn near every day, taking a day off only when my body seems to require that I do so. I can tell I'm losing some muscle tone because I'm mostly just doing cardio, but my heart ought to be in extra good shape at this point. As long as I'm not a bundle of sports injuries by the time this is over (ignore my currently feeling that this will never be over!!), I imagine I can catch up again fairly quickly. Turns out I really do need the social energy of classes to be enthusiastic about exercise and I haven't found a lot of strength training via Zoom.
