Mediterranean diet

tonite i cooked Greek lemon rice with grilled oregano spiced chicken.i use real lemons juice n zest.added chickpeas,cherry tomatoes,chopped spinach n n dried n fresh oregano leaves.i like the tart and tangy rice n the smoky grilled chicken drumstick next i will make a greek salad with sundried tomato,grapes,black olives n feta cheese with lettuce n herb dressing. now i like italian,spanish n greek food. i cant stand males who have lack of self control and do emotional eating as stress relief.the problem is asian companies reward staff with comfort food as its part of the culture.A China student who used to work as software programmer in guangzhou said the 996 work culture means long hours of overtime and crazy deadlines so the reward for staff is company orders extravagant premium comfort food to feed the staff to indulge them.resulting in him ballooning to obese from a slim younger figure as he has no time to sleep well or exercise.So for me i put exercise stretch bands in my drawers,lift heavy hard cover thick books or use the chair to do stretches n walk up the stairs n put small dumbbells in the drawer.lifting the big bottles of mineral water to put onto instant drink dispenser is like weight lifting so there are ways to workout in limited space but of course its better for mental health to exercise outdoors.the greenery really is relaxing especially water feature.why cant companies build outdoor gyms,landscape with zen gardens and hummocks n swings n put a climbing wall or free pilates or boxing class for stress relief.Sitting down too long immobile is hazardous to health and smoking and drinking to relieve stress is deadly . so when i swim now i feel so much more chill after that.why dont they have swimming pool in tech offices. .
