So they children went back to school after half term and I've realised that I've let myself get totally run down.

I drink a bit too much, I don't get enough sleep, I haven't been doing much exercise since the summer, and my diet is OK but there's too much snacking and comfort food eating going on.

I feel utterly shattered, I was poorly during half term, I can't remember the last time someone said I looked well (although to be fair, nobody's said I look unwell, although the phrase "washed out" has come up a couple of times).

I know there's no point moaning about it and that I need to do something about it, starting with no booze and early nights from now until the end of the month, before the Xmas onslaught begins.

Anyone else feel the same?
