There were both positives and negatives this week. I talked myself out of night workouts one to many times. My alarm is now set for early mornings all next week. That way I won’t have the ability to say no. It will already be done before my day started. 

I let my diet go crazy this week. With the stress comes more snacking and drinking for me. I am going to cut that all this week. I think I have finally hit the limit of feeling bad and need to get control of my diet. This is especially important so I don’t get sick while moving! 

I am going to also experiment with cutting down on caffeine. Having a small cup of decaf in the morning instead of the two cups of full caffeine that I have fallen into the routine of having. The experiment is to see if cutting caffeine and changing my diet lowers my anxiety levels. I’m starting to think my blood sugar levels and caffeine intake might be causing (or not helping) my anxiety and stress levels.
