Like today, woke up to get ready to work a mere 5 hours after I went to sleep. I know people deal with that kind of schedule all the time but it really isn't healthy. I need my sleep. After work went straight to TAFE and I was so frustrated and bored. Got home and by 5pm I went to sleep/nap. Mum's getting really annoyed that I have a sleep around dinner. What am I supposed to do? Fight drooping eyelids? Not like my plans would be important anyway (computer, TV, etc) so why not dedicate it to my health. Because that's what sleep is.
Anyway, I went to the gym later after my sleep, at about 11.30pm. I really do like having the gym to myself so I can forget about thinking about what I'm doing and just do it. Though like yesterday I did find it hard to get in the groove. Just moving and working out for over an hour and 500 calories burned is a great achievement, but I do feel lethargic. Linked to my sleep patterns? Such a hard thing to fit in gym time when you have a full plate.
Though I do have the day off tomorrow! Work better not call me lol. I'm looking forward to getting stuck into some assignments and research and having time to look after ME. I've just been eating whats "easy" - soups and sandwiches. I might even go grocery shopping and buy some supplies so I can cook something nice and healthy. Mum takes ownership of shopping but she never buys anything. Fridge is always empty and she says "well if I buy it, then you will eat it". No, duh! Half the time I barely hit 1200 calories simply because there are NO HEALTHY CHOICE to eat at all. I'd rather not starve myself, thank you. Though sometimes it's a choice between starving, or having a chunk of cheese or other foods that aren't junk bad, but you need in absolute moderation.
Anyway, off to sleep I go. Time to catch up and get a good nights sleep in. Night!
