Feeling your pain hun - had a terrible day in work myself yesterday But after a nice hot bath and a chillax (albeit not until 9pm) I did eventually feel better and was asleep by 11pm.

Cup of herbal tea?

 

[sleepymum]

Would need a bath of herbal tea....lol

Ah just one of those days! What doesnt kill ya makes ya stronger

 

[sleepymum]

Another green day today..same as yesterday and will have ate 12 syns and my Hexs...

Work is really stressing me out. Changed jobs a few months and to be honest probably wasnt the wisest move to make. The women that work there are so catty and clicky that the atmosphere is terrible.
So unhelpful and act like the want to see you fail.

Think its time to start job hunting again :-(

That's such a shame hun I moved job last May but luckily this one is better - full of lovely supportive people which makes such a difference!

I hope you find your happy place soon x

Its funny isnt it how work can affect us, its really made more aware though how my emotions affect how I eat.

[rialrees]

Gratz sleepymum! 1lb off is definitely in the right direction! I agree completely with what you say about trying to focus on the long term, rather than cravings and munchies. It can be blinking hard, but we'll all get there xxx
