I am sure you all know that our sleeping habits affect our weight loss? My sleeping habits are wayyyyyyy worse then my eating habits were.

So my new goal is to be in bed by 10 everyday, except if I go out with my husband on special ocxasions!

Hope you don't mind but I will post it here, for accountability. Enough with the midnight or even later sleep time. I want to feel like waking up in the morning!!! And start my day early!

So it all start tonight!

Post it! That is what I am going to do with my exercise. Just posting it here in a thread I start, even though it is for me, I know other people will be able to see it. I feel like it will help me keep myself accountable.

I have problems with sleep too...like mostly staying asleep.  I've had to start drinking some extra sleepy time tea...it helps.  Maybe that will help my stress level too because I haven't been able to sleep much the past two weeks.

I had terrible sleeping habits before the surgery. I would go to bed and was up maybe 4-6 times a night. How many nights I just layed there awake at 2am and cried because i knew in a few hours I would have to be up again for work.

Now I sleep like a dead woman. I dont know if it's the weight loss, the exercise or both.

One thing i do the same; I get up at the same time everyday 7 days a week, no matter what time I went to bed the night before.  It works for me.

Hugs,

Sharon

I have to admit (ashamed!!! ) that my problem is not to sleep but to go to bed.  I put music on and don't even last through one song.  I do not wake up either, unless I have to pee, but rarely!!! 

 

I just don't WANT to go to bed.  I enjoy this alone time, when it's quiet and dark, when I know others are sleeping. 

 

It's 8 and I DO NOT WANT TO GO TO BED AT 10.  How am I going to do this?
