If work was a treadmill, I'd be deliriously thin....

While I am still 'contemplating' my activity list, I am committed to doing something today - whatever it takes.

Halloween was not as scary as I had thought - no binging on sweets... although I will admit to sampling a few treats - after all I had worked Saturday and got slammed with yet another big project to be finished before the end of the month. 

And while I did lose sleep over the 'how much I have to do this month' dark cloud hanging over my head, I was thinking of what I could do to keep on track for physical activity and self-care.  If work was a treadmill, I'd be deliriously thin....

I appreciate the chuckle. I

I appreciate the chuckle. I always giggle a bit at the end of your writing. I think that the humour approach is critical... particularly in your case. Adding humour reduces the 'daunting' feeling and lightens the dark cloud that we create with this process.

It sounds like changes are starting to take place. The trick is that they take place mentally first and tend to take a little time to trickle down to the body and scale.

Be patient, be persistent and be as good to yourself as you are to your employer.

Catch those other treadmills when they are running out of control and swap them for your own more peaceful and active activities. Keep up the good work and thanks for writing!
