Bit of an update

Sadly, I lost my job a couple of weeks ago.  It seems that my employer wasn't at all tolerant or understanding of my PCOS/Endo and the fact that I had to lose time off work due to the unpleasant symptoms.

Add to that the nasty bout of diarrhoea that lasted a full week and caused me to lose 2 days off work as well.

I am going to find out what action I can take against my employer as I had been given reassurance that I wouldn't lose my job because of the time I lost with my PCOS/Endo symptoms.

At the same time, I am feeling quite philosophical about it and believe that there is a reason this has happened so I am focusing on finding a job with a great employer who has compassion and understanding and also a job that gives me greater fulfilment!

Healthwise...  mmm... well, I guess I should be taking better care of myself.  I have lost a bit of confidence since losing my job so I have been comfort eating, mainly chocolate which is my biggest weakness.  I know it isn't helping me, in fact eating a high carb diet only increases my oestrogen levels and affects other hormones which makes it too easy to gain weight.
