Day 298: 1/23/2019
My body was acting sort of weird today.
I believe as my stress level has started to increase (and seemingly it will continue to do so), my body is now acting weird and I could spot some of the strange signs for the past few days.
First, there have been some nights that I have difficulty falling asleep and that resulted in me going to bed very late and sleeping in the next morning.
Next, at 1.30, my usual lunchtime, I felt hungry and thus I took a break from working and walked to the kitchen. There I reheated my breakfast leftover and as the microwaved bell rung, my appetite somehow went downhill. As a result, I opted for a light lunch option which I had a mandarin and a raisin scone instead. This was relatively peculiar, especially when compared to my usual lunch intake.
Having work nonstop for a few more hours, my body asked for more food again. This was, I assume, due to physical fatigue and mental stress. Then I reheated my lunch (again) and had it for dinner. This time I felt I needed more food so I boiled two eggs to have along side my dish. Somehow my body seemed to want more but I decided not to feed it with any more food tonight.
In the evening, while I felt completely exhausted and wanted to take a long nap as opposed to staring at the screen and making changes endlessly, I kept telling myself that I need to work out. With tremendous effort, I then went to get changed into my gym outfit and did exercise for 20 good minutes. It was something I thanked myself for doing that.
Despite several weird signs of stress and tiredness, I am happy that some work has been done and I still feel incredible that I could finish recording a podcast episode after working out. :)
I only have one body and I have to take a really good care of it!
