Sleep and my weight- loss

I don’t know why it takes me so long to figure this stuff out. It is so important to journal everything when you lose weight. I have a little coiled book, each day I write no just my menu, but how many hours sleep, stress level of day, cravings, etc.

Last night I went to bed at nine. I did it because I thought I was getting a cold, and I had learned that a good 9 or 10 hours staves it off.

I couldn’t help noticing my strength of resolve during this day. I had zero “close-calls” zero temptation. I felt great. I truely beliveĀ  for me this can make a difference of long lasting weight loss or backsliding. Makes sense. I am well rested, I am happier, stress affexts me less, I am less senstive, I don’t feel the anxiety at the end of the day, I feel like wlaking and working out, I DON’T OVEREAT!

So, get caught up. Ya, there are a ton of things that need to be done, but there are hours in the day (with exception of women with new babies). I just ahve to remeber this every night :)

Meal 3- Lean Crustini, 1 cup raw snow peas

Meal 4- 1 string cheese, 1 Wasa Crisp

Meal 5= chicken breast and broccoli
