Thoughts:
Throughout time as a torture technique people have used sleep deprivation. Lack of sleep has the same effect as being drunk and impairs the body worse than alcohol does.
From my experience when I have been losing weight in the past, a good night's sleep is key to losing weight. Researching this in depth, sleep is when your body does it's repairs after a workout.
Well, last night, I got fuck all sleep. At first I couldn't get comfortable in bed. I was too hot, then I couldn't get my pillows positioned right. I usually sleep on my tummy and that didn't even feel comfortable.
Then to compound the problem, the boyfriend started snoring. And I mean snoring. It was so loud that I could hear it even though I was wearing ear plugs. It sounded like a car that is stuck in the mud trying to get out. I then thought, do I bludgeon him to death with the lamp on my bedside cabinet or put a plastic bag over his face?...hmmmmmm...I then thought nah, regulation prison orange doesn't compliment my skin tone and hair colour...so I decided it was best that I got up and went to sleep on couch.
That was twice as uncomfortable. No support for my back. I attempted to get to sleep but after 2 hours, I got back up and went back to bed. At least I was somewhat comfortable. So I put my sleep mask on and tried to salvage some sleep. So I pussied out of a workout because I tried to get sleep even though I was wide awake and could have gone.
So today I felt bad. I ate well, I think. But the fact that I didn't get a workout in because I thought that I could choose sleep has bothered me all day.
But I have found one thing. If you have a bad day, don't spoil it even more by eating crap. That's what I would have done in the past. But I kept with the plan, I ate well and I know that I most likely will sleep well tonight so I can get up and work my chest and back tomorrow.
Tomorrow is a new day, a new start and so I intend on making the most of it.
