Excellent to go and keep that habit going. Lovely that you enjoyed yourself too!Went to the gym and did the minimum because anything around my shoulder blades is still sore! Enjoyed myself though, so that's nice.

Right now those are the only important things. I can focus on achievement later - if I decide I want to.Excellent to go and keep that habit going. Lovely that you enjoyed yourself too!
I read this & thought "Wow, how could you go to the gym, without much sleep?" & then thought about the times I take Arch for a walk when I am dog-tired, like yesterday. You feel so much better for doing it usually, but I have the luxury of being able to nap in the afternoon if I really need to.Woke up just past 4 am this morning and gave up on sleep by 5.

yeah give that food its time to digest. Running right after eating can be pretty gross. I remember years ago going for a run after eating a brownie. It was so funny. I didn't feel bad setting off but not long into the run I was down on the ground feeling sooooooo sick. Will never do that again! lolKind of want to go running right now just to have it done because I don't want to do anything other than lie on the couch for the rest of the day but I just ate and it probably wouldn't go great for me.
Good for you standing firm!The on-duty planner laid it on thick to guilt-trip me into working longer today and/or tomorrow but I stood firm.
Sleep makes such a big difference in cravings, motivation to move or prep food, and even whether I get cold or not. It's wild.Yay for good sleep! Always helpful.
My stomach is quite sensitive at the best of times (though much more resilient than 10 years ago) and the first hour after even a very light meal I just can't do anything strenuous without feeling sick. (Which is of course fun at work sometimes.) I ended up tidying up a bit for another 20 minutes or so before going outside. It was a slog and my stomach still complained but afterwards I again had more energy rather than less. I like this dynamic.yeah give that food its time to digest.

oh yes for sure!Sleep makes such a big difference in cravings, motivation to move or prep food, and even whether I get cold or not. It's wild.
Yes it's so amazing how we can get more energy after spending energy!afterwards I again had more energy rather than less. I like this dynamic.
I don't know about fairness - patients might argue it isn't fair their appointments are getting canceled after they waited for them for weeks - but I do know that my health and well-being take precedence here. Not just because you can't pour from an empty cup but also just because it's ok for me to value my own needs.Good for you resisting that pressure at work Llama. It's really just not fair. Archie & I have gone out in sympathy with dodgy stomachs.
Of course that shows that no matter how tired my body felt it was really my mind that was exhausted. Funny how hard it is to distinguish between the two sometimes.Yes it's so amazing how we can get more energy after spending energy!
It feels so good to have the option to have a treat but not go crazy thinking about it all the time!That's excellent that you have been able to have sweets & chips in the house without binging, Llama. Well done!
Very true, although thankfully I don't have a habit of eating/snacking after dinner so by then it generally got easier anyway. Annoyingly I've been having trouble sleeping the past week or so. Not sure if it's related to my digestive issues but it's possible. Allergies? I could probably look up when I've been to the allergy center the last couple of times (where they found nothing new, at least nothing seasonal) but I feel like it was slightly earlier in the year. It has been unseasonally warm though. Current pollen load is negligible. Fungal spores are quite high, but I've never had an issue with those. Maybe I should do what the allergy doc said: accept that I'm sick and sometimes things just suck without a clear reason.If you’re sleeping, you’re not eating!
I know for me it’s easy to overeat the longer the day goes.
That is great! Glad to hear it. I feel a bit the same, not a perfect month, but not bad.I think I've had about a month of mostly good days now and it feels so nice.
If it's an excuse is it ever good? Sometimes the current just carries us elsewhere for a while: no shame in that.No good excuse for my neglect
Absolutely! So glad you are valuing your own needs. So easy to give until one burns out!Not just because you can't pour from an empty cup but also just because it's ok for me to value my own needs.
yes that sounds like me with anxiety--eventually we might just have to say-- who knows why --and just accept it and eventually it passes.Maybe I should do what the allergy doc said: accept that I'm sick and sometimes things just suck without a clear reason.
excellent!I ran today and it felt better than the past couple of times.
Hope you get out for that hike and enjoy it!I need to go hiking tomorrow.
