After two lovely weeks of festive holidays, this five day week back at work was a bit of a shock to the system. By 7pm on Friday night, when leaving work, my eyes felt heavy enough to anchor a ship.
Still, I’m proud of myself for sticking to a couple of my resolutions. In terms of my health goal, I had a really good week. I did two hot yoga classes, two lunchtime gym sessions, one 6.5km run and a 5km run with 5×2 mins boxing rounds.
I also ate very well and have gone back to eating mostly gluten and dairy free (excluding milk in coffee which I just can’t cope without). The only thing I’m (continually) keen to improve is cutting down on refined sugars – that’s something to try to improve next week.
In terms of sleep, I’ve not been great but so far my symptoms have been in hiding. Having caught up this weekend, I’m determined to do a little better next week.
I’ve also had a check in with my doctor and got my first blood tests of the year back clear.
After a restful weekend, it’s time to build on last week and also to sort out a schedule for keeping in touch with loved ones. One week down, 51 to go.
