I know it has only been two days since I began my fitness regimen… but I already feel such a HUGE difference. My sleep patterns have changed… not necessarily improved… but I feel energized on fewer hours of sleep. It’s mind boggling how I go to sleep at 2 AM… only to wake up bright eyed & bushy tailed at 6 AM… WITHOUT the help of an alarm clock. It’s kind of nice to feel like I have more time in the day to get stuff done. I am also making a conscious effort to eat well… I don’t know how this happened… but it seems that now my body CRAVES exercise… fruits & veggies! It’s amazing the impact fitness has on one’s life. Although I no longer have access to a gym… & the weather is much too hot & muggy to go out for a nice run… I am hoping that with the help of equipment*free fitness DVDs I can continue this health streak
Oooo… and good news… last night I completed all of Ms. Jillian Michael’s level 1 *w. the exception of side planks. Those lil’ bastards hurt my wrist
*!!! The plan is to maintain on level 1 for the next week or so before advancing to level 2.
OK… so I totally wasn’t hungry this morning. I rarely have an appetite in the morning… but I just had to include a foodie pic in this post… and well… a sandwich *or two*… seemed like the way to go! Sometimes I wonder whether blogging makes me eat MORE just so I have something worth blogging. The egg salad & ham sandwich are both filled w. pickled cucumber & sliced tomatoes. I added a slice of cheese & a generous spread of mustard to the ham sandwich. A banana is hiding in the background. This was a VERY filling brunch… and now I am ready to wash it all down w. a hot mug of oolong tea
