Being back at work has been a bit of a struggle if I am honest. The first two weeks were so hard and all I did outside of work was rest and sleep. Exercise has been pretty much non existant for a while. I did manage to get out for a decent walk last week but that was all.
It's frustrating but my main priority is being able to keep on top of everything at home and stay at work. I saw my M.E specialist again last week and she recommended more walking and some swimming (maybe once a week on a day off) to gradually increase activity levels without overdoing it.
I have lost 20lbs altogether now, its taken 4 months so an average of 5lbs a month which I am quite pleased with considering the amount of exercise I have missed out on.
Fingers crossed things continue to improve and I can get back to running soon, I really miss it which is so odd considering how much I used to hate it. I am really enjoying reading friends blogs and updates to see how well they are doing, it really motivates me to keep going towards my goals.
