Good grief I've got leg muscles!

I've been away on business this week. I was sitting in a hot hotel room in my undies on a chair with my feet on the bed. I realised I could actually see the muscles in my legs the mirror. Seems to have replaced the flab that used to be there. I'm also aware that I can feel bones where once there was just flesh.

For those new to the programme, it does seem to have an almost magical effect - on your body and on your mind.

Made me chuckle, just that image of being away on business and sitting in a hotel room in your undies, been there, done that. :)

Lol, I don't know why but the first thing I do in a hotel room is take my pants off and sit about in my undies. It must be a universal thing I reckon, just not everyone admits to it! :)

Sitting here laughing my head off at the thought. I do the same thing, sometimes modestly covered with a dressing gown, it's weird, isn't it? sort of follows on from the complementary bathroom goodies check, mini bar peep (but that tantalising chocolate bar is prohibitively expensive), and wistful look at the room service menu if there is one.
