Ah I  hope you manage a good day. The first day back is always the worst. Well done on the PADs
snd the decluttering. I really do feel your pain with the job. I’m absolutely in the same boat and having to go back to work after time off is awful.

Thank you   I haven't done anything with the bookcase yet.  I will be careful though!  The update wasn't too bad, I hate it when things look different though

I had my call back from the GP as promised yesterday - excellent service again.  Good news is bloods came back clear so no evidence of anything wrong.  However, not so good news is that my HBA1C came back as diabetic!  I was only just over the prediabetes level in Jan so it seems to be a huge jump.  To be honest, although I am shocked, I'm not surprised, the last few weeks/months I haven't been eating well at all, and I haven't been particularly active.  I need to have another test in a couple of weeks to confirm.

So I need to make sure that is a wake up call for me and make a proper plan as to what I'm going to do.

Sorry about the blood test results. A loss of even 5-10% of weight can give major benefits. I appreciate that if like me you have a lot of wright to go it's a big target but breaking it down like that helped me get past my all or nothing approach.
