________________________________________________________
Dentist tonight followed by gym of which i hope to feel less sore by then....body is a bit tired today. but really trying to go for gym (but i can skip today if i want to, actually! and just go tomorrow, so that is good!).
Was a REALLY good weekend, but wish i would be feeling a little less tired now at work?? lol, maybe needed an hour or so more sleep?
lately i get so tired that i fall asleep still sitting on the couch in my living room! I find myself waking up HOURS later and sometimes all the way at 6am and walking into my bedroom to my bed.
Last night i feel asleep around 10:30 on couch waking back up at midnight to walk to my bedroom! SO CRAZY! so sleepy the past month this has been happening!

Today is a day to get prioities done including an oil change and free car wash!
Quick food shopping to get some bananas, eggs, fruit and maybe little bit cooked veggies from specialty (not expensive) food store..buy also some seltzers and maybe another type of canned nuts because i'm SICK of snacking on almonds at work!! That's all I need food-wise.

Progress as of today: 2 lbs lost so far, only 3 lbs to go!
But for the LONG ISLAND NYPD precincts, i looked online and the requirements are spelled out:
1. 1.5 mi run is just under 15-16 minutes (a mile and a half)
2. Pushup requirement is 11 (i can do triple the requirement easily!) pushups for someone my age
3. Sits ups are 25 at least for the requirement, will not be a problem
I can pass the run now by the skin of my teeth so i'd like to get a bit better.
but like i said, the NYPD is not a full run, but an obstacle course with many pieces.
Home: kombucha in a sweeter flavor - Mango. It was VERY good. 100
Breakfast: wrap 100, lox 100, cream cheese 100, coffee 50 (stopped with the sugar bc i prefer right now a bitter taste to squash my appetite which has been GROWING at work !) oh and banana 120

Maybe sleeping pill tonight bc all i have to really do tomorrow is jog before going out. I may choose to sleep in more....and just do laundry on Sunday...and gym Sunday too.
I was going to jog today but decided that it's a rainy day and the gym would be better.
Progress as of today: 2 lbs lost so far, only 3 lbs to go!

I'm sleeping a lot too...I thought it was out of boredom..but I don't think that I the problem with you..maybe you are just sleep deprived.
yes, with the increase and emphasis on trying to get better at jogging i find myself needing a lot of actual sleep ! LOL... i will take note and realize i DO need to set aside a little more time for sleep, especially today. i'll be doing no exercise later, i def need more sleep.
idk, as i've gotten older, seems i do enjoy my sleep if i also want to stay LEAN....i eat a lot less when i sleep well! it's true for me - when they say if you get good sleep you do not want to overeat, true for me.
i also get wayyyy less anxious if i sleep more / relax more at home!
anyways, thank you. i agree it's a slight bit of sleep deprivation haha. but nothing major thankfully!
but i do not think you sleep 7-8 hours or do you?
bearcountrygg on 08/28/2017:
I sleep about 5 hours a night and I also take 1 or 2 one hour naps during the day...so I total about 7..but it's broken up into 2 or 3 times
7 is still slightly under recommended also...so, once in awhile you may need more also :) if i only sleep 7 hours and not more, i tend to still want a little more after a week of 7hr nights!
bearcountrygg on 08/28/2017:
oh every once in awhile I have sleepy days where I literally sleep off and on all day and still sleep at night And then I'm over it till the next time.
similar thing over here :-)
Donkey on 08/28/2017:
Definitely sounds like a hangover to me! Oh well, if you had a good time, it was well worth it. Cheers!
