Work has been so stressful lately that it's waking me up in the middle of the night. Admittedly, I made a fairly big mistake that is 100% my fault so, you know, I created my own stress in that situation. But owning up to your mistakes doesn't make the stress go away. Ughhhhh.
My husband still doesn't have a steady income so if I lost my job, we'd be up the creek without a paddle. THAT'S stressful to think about.
It's definitely candy season at work. I put an effort in to pack healthy lunches, but just a glimpse of a fun size Snickers bar will send me off the rails.
I went to the doctor last week (or was it 2 weeks ago now?) and had a perfect BP reading of 110/80. She said that having a very tight cuff can give a false reading that's too high. Sure enough, when I took my blood pressure that day that said it was 132/93, I used a regular size cuff and it was painful. I'm a big girl with a big arm, I need a large cuff.
She also said that my hemoglobin was 10.1 and she recommends I start taking an iron supplement, which I haven't started yet. Maybe it'll increase my energy levels!!!
Went to the park today and only did 1.5 laps. Guess that's better than nothing, but I sure miss the days of doing 4 laps and having seemingly endless energy. Anyway, exercising in the morning makes me want to eat all day long. I prefer evening workouts.
Ok, enough rambling. Hope everybody has a good week!
I hope The stress level goes down soon.
ReplyDeleteThose darn snickers! So hard to pass up.
I much prefer evening workouts! I have a lot more energy in the evening than in the morning.
