Fast forward

Today it was quite cold. I know, because I walked for about an hour. I was just exploring, really, looking for a good path that I had heard should be around there. Instead I ended up finding a small shop that was open on Sunday, and bought a little groceries there, yogurt (which was running low) and soups and pasta dishes. Not a lot, but enough that I felt the trip hadn't been wasted.

Taking long walks when you're already permanently hungry is not a good idea. It makes the stomach hurt. Also I am pretty sure it felt a bit colder than it would have a year ago, when I had a reserve of fat I could burn with abandon. Well, I still have some fat, but there's clearly less than my body would like. Still, it wasn't a problem walking for an hour, and fast enough to not get too cold. And I have to try to establish healthy habits now while I am new here.
