day seventeen: trudging along

Stayed up far too late last night and had a late morning start. I awoke with just enough time to make my dinner, and had to eat my lunch in the car on the way to work. I keep saying I need to work on my bedtime so I can wake up earlier, but it hasn’t been happening. 

Any suggestions on how to force oneself into a new bedtime would be greatly appreciated. I want to go to bed earlier and get up earlier. (About an hour’s difference in what I do now, which is go to bed around 3:30 AM and wake up at 11 AM or noon). I’d rather go to sleep around 2:30 AM and wake up at 10:30 or even 10 AM. But my will power doesn’t seem to be enough to handle that request. But I’ve managed to work out every day for the past two and a half weeks and avoided fast food and sodas… why can’t I handle one more test of will power: the earlier bedtime?

I will go to bed earlier and rise earlier. This will be essential in preparation for when I go back to school this fall, because I will have to do such things anyway, so I better get in the habit now. Plus, it definitely helps out, having more hours in the day before work!

Day Seventeen Stats:
Wake Up: 1 PM

Lunch: Turkey sandwich with cheese and mustard on wheat bread, animal crackers
Snack: banana
Exercise: 6.5 mins treadmill, stretches, 23 mins elliptical with Arm Blaster activated first 13 mins and Glute Kicker for the rest
