Ever notice that when you first start a diet you feel really hungry?
Yesterday was the first day of school. That means that I am waking up 3 hours earlier than I have been AND that means that eating breakfast 3 hours earlier. By the time I got to my last client of the day my stomach was doing flip flops.
My eating schedule is all messed up!!!
However, I am looking forward to the more structured day so I can actually have an eating schedule.

Anyway, my first day back to work and I had several comments made about my weight. Most of which went like this: "You look good, it looks like you kept off the weight"
Part of me was flattered, part of me was like What the f*ck?
It took me about an hour but really - I'm over it. Unfortunately, in my line of work I have gotten some pretty insensitive remarks if not down right rude. It's obviously their issue and not mine.

Moving on, I am hoping that I can become a morning exercise person. Due to the fact that I work 12 hours most days - by the time I get home my ass is drawn to the couch...not the bike. So I talked to the Gym teacher at school (he is a 5am runner) and he said that given time and a lot of motivation its easy and your body will adjust. So my plan is over the next week or so to try to get up a half hour earlier (to do at least half a p90x workout).
This is going to be a big challenge as I am NOT a morning person, but it will be my best shot at actually getting in some work.
I can do this.
So I guess I should go to bed if I am going to be an earlier riser.
Lots of love

I hear ya with the morning exercise. I used to go to the gym immediately after work and I would literally stare at the treadmill with angst and trepidation. And I only worked a normal 9-5 day. I've read a bunch of articles that say if you exercise in the morning, you're more likely to have more energy throughout the day. And I agree with the gym teacher, it's all about setting up a routine. Sort of like waking up at the same time every day for an extended period of time; after a while, you don't need an alarm clock.
