Does this sound like you?
Sleep for eight hours, but wake up still tired as you sit down to breakfast. Get ready, and then sit down to travel to work, where you sit for most of the day. Go to lunch, where you sit down and eat, then go and sit back at your desk to work. Get tired around midafternoon, so reach for something sweet and junky,coffee or energy drink.
At the end of the day, go and sit down to travel home again, where you have no energy to do anything but sit down and watch TV. Get up, but only to go sit and eat the biggest meal of the day, then go back to the TV and maybe mindlessly eat some more junk before going to bed.
At the weekend, add in a few more elements, such as alcohol, restaurants or takeaway meals, and more chocolate. Start the process again on Monday.
It’s a vicious cycle – you’ll never have more energy until you use more energy.
