Instead, I evaluated. I've been working to lose the 5 pounds I gained since Christmas. I've eaten well, stayed on my Take Shape for Life plan, exercised, and had plenty of water to flush out my toxins.
The only thing missing is adequate sleep.
Between stress, too much on my plate, fighting burn-out at work, I just can't seem to get enough quality sleep.
Today, I will clean my room (clutter where you are sleeping causes extra stress), spray some essential lavender oil (promotes sleep), and stop working at least an hour before I go to bed.
It's not just my weight that suffers when I don't sleep. My mental and physical health fall apart too.
