Guest guest Posted January 3, 2007 Report Share Posted January 3, 2007 On week days my husband gets up at 5am to get ready for work. I normally get up with him and make sure he doesn't forget his lunch box, tools, etc... and then when he leaves at 6am I go back to bed and sleep until around 9am. I really enjoy getting those extra hours of sleep and I thought that they might be beneficial but I was wrong!!! When I get those extra hours of zzz time in I wake up feeling grumpy and even more tired than I was the first time I woke up at 5am! I've noticed that on days that I don't go back to sleep after my husband leaves for work I get a lot more done throughout the day. I usually am in a better mood and even seem to eat better because then I get breakfast in and when I sleep in I usually just skip breakfast and wait till lunch to eat, which by then I feel starving and eat more than I should of whatever is laying around the house (potato chips, cookies, etc...). So today I'm going to start a new habit... I'm going to wake up with my husband at 5am and stop going back to sleep after he leaves! It's just one small step that can help me towards my 10 pounds gone by Valentines Day goal! Thanks for reading! -moonmayden Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
