Week 4: Are You Sleeping Enough?

This week, I am going to be short and sweet! I have been busy with the Wee-Trade Kids Consignment Sale and my hubby went out of town again.

If you know me at all, you know I am not a morning person.  I've been reading all these exercise blogs about working out before work and making time to myself, yet I still say HOW?!  I have a home daycare for 10 hrs a day and 2 children w/ extra curricular activities and a husband thats gone most weekdays. Well, this week I have a new goal: SLEEP MORE!!!

I know it sounds silly but there is a ton of research about getting 8+ hours of sleep and people losing weight productively.  I believe it. This week, my goal is to go to bed by 10pm, so I can rest for 8 hours.  I have done this so far this week, and I can't believe how much more energy I have and it has helped me stay motivated about working out.  So I do believe all the weight lose blogs now. I have found that if you take care of your body, it shows you what it needs.

Make every day count; even when you go to bed!

Weight Lose so far 7 lbs in 4 weeks. Slowly but steady!

Make time for yourself by exercise, quiet/meditation time for your soul, and sleep for your body to relax & heal.
