Monday food & exercise

L: 2 plums and a cuppa soup
Indian takeaway
S: None
E: Walked 1,362, miles 2717ft, burned 1687, ate 988 (est)

I was off ill from work with a migraine - probably due to all the stress from work at the moment. As you can see I slept most of the day and my husband ordered takeaway which I mainly picked at due to loss of appetite.

Make sure you make some me time to do things you like in your spare time. I always say to everyone give yourself something to look forwards to, no matter how small. I had 2 weeks off work with stress a few years ago, but do look after yourself.

Work to live not live for work

This was only temporary due to a lot of staff leaving at once. New people have now started so my workload will be settling back to normal levels. Weekends are usually my time to relax in fact since January I have been giving myself a manicure and pedicure every Sunday while catching up on telly.
