Losing focus

This week has started with a massive 12 hour day at work, and no walking yesterday or today. The rest of the week promises to continue in the same ridiculous fashion. I had a productive Monday, and that's always a nice feeling, but unfortunately I seem to operate on a one on, one off basis...so generally if my Monday was super productive, my Tuesday will be full of faff. There is so much to do...and right now I can't work up any interest in any of it. So many urgent things to attend to. Yawn. 

I can feel my focus swaying dangerously on the weightloss front. I feel hopeless at the prospect of not being allowed all the treats that I would normally use to make me feel better. And the scales showed a gain yesterday morning - well no wonder really considering I probably went over the points on five out of seven days last week! Yesterday I went over again, and today hasn't started in the healthiest of ways (altho nothing to disastrous, just not my normal porridge). With so much going on at work I feel like I just want to give in, and I'm sick of trying to whip myself in to doing more, eating better, exercising, being focused at work, being responsive, responsible, when I just want to flake out and skive off work and go home and sleep after finishing a tub of Ben&Jerrys...Yeah we have a major case of toys out of pram here.

Must try and focus on the positives. 

1. Yesterday my boyfriend interrupted my work rant with a surprised "Oh! I can really see the weight difference in your face now!" A rude interruption I was quick to forgive :)
2. Also yesterday I found out my boss thought I'd acted brilliantly on Friday - and that made me laugh with disbelief since on Friday I was absolutely ready to kill him with my own two hands (and possibly a USB cable) - he was so infuriating!! I felt bad for being such a grumpy cow all of Friday but apparently my boss mistook that for dedication and efficiency...

  1. Hahaha, lol at the boss for mistaking your bad mood for efficiency... they only see what they want to see, right? ;)

    Can I join you for Ben & Jerry's? I'm about ready to give up trying to get anything done today either. At least I only have 2 half days of work left this week :)

    Good luck with your week from hell, and try to stay on track, even just a little bit :)
