Yes. But I've been taking little steps over the last year or so, and what's amazing is... when you start to take little steps and feel better, it sort of makes it easier. Not 100% super easy, it's still work, but it's easier when you have felt the difference.

The problems I have is that:
1. Everything is connected. It's been shown that if you don't get enough restful sleep, you will crave sugar. If you eat sugar (well, for me anyway), it disrupts your sleep. The connections mean that if one things goes wonky, it easily pulls everything else down with it.

2. I have trouble with creating structure for myself, not sure why.

3. Like everyone else, I struggle with having the energy and time to do all the things I want and need to. I am alone and work full time, trying to: cook healthy meals (find recipes, shop, cook, wash things afterwards), keep the house just liveably clean, get in some exercise, and make sure I'm getting decent sleep - is like a second job unto itself. And that's before we add in socializing (which my T seems to think is important!) and hobbies that make me happy. There just aren't enough hours in the day, and it's hard.

Some things that I think can help:

- Cook big meals, freeze extras. Then when you're too tired/busy to cook, you have your own healthy frozen meals that you can reheat.

- Find a couple easy crockpot recipes (the kind that basically say, "throw stuff in crockpot, cook on low for 8-10 hours, then eat!").

- Plan a couple healthy emergency meals, for times when you get overwhelmed, are starving, and haven't had time to cook. Either stuff in the freezer, easy salads with canned tuna, whatever.

Hmmm interesting, I just noticed all my tips are basically "have a plan for moments when it's easy to fail".

Anyway, it's something I am still working on. I'm better at it... but the more busy/stressed/overwhelmed I get, the more all this stuff falls apart I really wish my job didn't make me so miserable for such a huge chunk of the week, b/c I think that makes it harder too!!!
