@Phoenix_Rising, great to hear! That is a good amount of time for it to last. I think every step we take towards improving our mental health is somehow a little bit healing in itself, almost regardless of the therapy. When it's a good match and you see immediate results, well, that's just awesome. 
@CherryBomb, lovely sun to warm the bones. The rain can seem like a bit of a novelty here, but it was been very wet this last week.
@Mazarita That is super impressive. The journey to get to the gym sounds like it was a workout in itself!
By the way @Mazarita, since you went to the gym this week, I think you deserve to have as much chocolate as you want from the giant chocolate fountain I brought. I often set myself the goal of walking to the shops, which are a couple of kms away. When I achieve this goal, I invariably then go into Coles and buy myself chocolate as a reward. Methinks this system of mine needs some fine-tuning. 
@Phoenix_Rising, it was quite an unusual amount of effort to get to something (for me). I probably did get more exercise than usual just in the lead up to the session. Luckily I got a lift home and was even able to stop off at the fruit shop for some green smoothie ingredients. Getting those is usually a separate excursion that I have difficulty doing in itself, so yeah, very good day here and healthy and delicious juices coming up all weekend.
Oh @Phoenix_Rising, I'll go swimming in the chocolate fountain but I'll have to keep my mouth shut cos I only eat chocolate one square per session. What can I say? I'm a freak, lol. 
@Mazarita Wow, you ARE on a roll - healthy eating AND a trip to the gym. I super struggle to eat well. I'm pretty fussy and also not hugely interested in food...except for chocolate, I'm pretty interested in chocolate.
