- no meal planning
- casual grocery shopping habits
- fell off the Paleo-eating wagon
- too much weight put on
- very little exercise (see: synovial cyst below)
- no tracking (food, supplements, exercise)
- too much stress
- too much alcohol
- too much work
- too much time on the PC
- not enough time outdoors/in the garden/in the sunshine
- too little crafting
- too little, but then again too much, sleep
- too much clutter and messiness
- not enough self care
- too little happiness
All of these were, of course, related to the three major events of the year. Whether some of them should have escalated to the level they did is another matter but in the end it all distills down into the last two points.
The majority of it relates to weight, food and exercise - an indication of just how much all that means to me. The cyst made exercise impossible (hell some days I couldn't even get my knickers on without crying in pain). No exercise led to indiscriminate and bad eating habits (quantity as well as quality).
Too much work and too little play (in the form of gardening, being outsoors and hobbies) led to too much alcohol, the wrong sort of sleep and too much stress.
Just not enough self care and too little happiness.
Still, writing down the bad has clarified what needs to be done to make me feel good. This week is still quite quiet at work so one by one I'll attack and discuss the list above in order to create some Resolutions (or goals if you dislike the term) for 2013.
