My journey to a debt free life

It sounds like lack of protein could be the problem them. I like chickpeas, lentils and all types of beans luckily so I get protein that way, plus plenty of eggs.

I have protein powder Gluten and dairy free as well, which is obviously great for me. x

Plenty of healthy ways to get protein into your diet. I don’t eat meat or eggs but eat loads of pulses and lentils and have bucketloads of energy - maybe too much at times. If you’re struggling a supplement might help in the short term.

Today has been a bit of a wash out,I went to work this morning even though I was in quite a lot of pain in all my joints,I lasted until 12.30 and decided to call it a day and came home,I got home and had my lunch but felt so rubbish I went to bed, I got up again at 6.30 and I've just sat here reading,I've had a lovely hot shower and I am going back to bed in a minute
Im not due at work until Sunday but I'm going to see how I feel tomorrow afternoon then decide whether to go in or not, I was also feeling quite low and finding it hard to concentrate today so that didn't help,hopefully I will feel in a better frame of mind tomorrow, at the moment I just want to go to bed and stay there, it's so weird how quickly your mood can change, one minute I'm fine then the next I feel awful

 Thank you ,it probably is the stress,I've just been on a very stressful outing to pick up my prescription and have managed to leave it at the chemist 😟

Still not feeling god today but had to go to Boots in town to pick up my prescription,I needed some shopping so decided to get that at the same time,DD decided to come with me because she needed shopping too, I went to to Boots and there was no queue outside so I went straight in only to find the queue was at the chemist counter,I waited for 50 minutes to get served which I would have been fine about except there was a lady and I presume her son in front of me who really didn't get the concept of keeping your distance, the person behind the counter keep telling them off because they kept standing too close to everyone, DD was waiting for me outside I knew she would be annoyed at waiting for so long, as soon as I got out of the shop she started moaning about how long she had been waiting for, I just ignored her
We then went on to Mr S where I managed to get all my shopping including Quorn chicken pieces 🎉🎉, DD however was trying to find spinach and they didn't have any so she got in a strop about that too, it makes shopping so stressful all the time which is why I like to go on my own but I didn't say anything 

Things then got worse because we were just walking up the high street in time to see our bus pull away from the stop,so she got in another strop about how we would have to wait half an hour for another bus, at this point i had had enough so snapped at her that it wasn't worth getting worked up about because there wasn't anything we could do about it, she then proceeded to tell me I needed to change my attitude 😟so I told her she was stressing me out by moaning all the time, so she told me to F off and went and got a taxi home by herself,shortly after she left another bus came so I got on that and came home in peace and quiet only to discover that I have left my prescription at Boots, I paid for it along with some painkillers but they didn't give it to me,I was distracted by the stupid woman in the queue and left without it, I've just phoned and they have found it and are keeping it for me to go and collect on Monday 😟

I've just phoned work to tell them I won't be  in tomorrow, my joints are still hurting so I'm going to take a few days to try and rest and not do too much to see if that helps, in the meantime I'm going to concentrate on improving my diet to see if it makes a difference,I'm not due back at work until Wednesday now so will hopefully be feeling better by then
Just going on a short trip into town has made the pain flare up so I need to try not to do too much for a few days,I will just take B for a short walk and hopefully that will help 

I'm going to do my sewing this afternoon and I also have another book to read so lots of relaxing activities

DD is up in her room so hopefully she will stay out of my way
