So, since yesterday I have been getting up at 6:15 in the morning. it is hard, because its still dark out, but if I go to bed at 10:30, 11pm, i know i dont need any more sleep than that. i am no more tired at night than when I was getting up at 8:15 in the morning... and I have two more hours to play and/or work with! whoo hoo! i decided to do it because, well, yesterday bc of the interview I had to be there at 10, but did NOT want to miss my workout, so I got up early to get it in. and i liked getting it over with, drying my hair and getting ready for the day as soon as i was done with my shower. i was used to putting my lounge clothes back on and loafing until an hour before i had to leave then rushing to get ready. i LIKED being finished earlier. it has been a great two days. its also been motivating since I am seeing some spectacular results in my body since i started focusing heavier on strength training.
but MAN am I sore today. I really think I'm gonna do that Women's Health workout more often because it goes by SO quick (40 minutes) and it is such a major BURN.
Yesterday was a big fail on one goal, not eating any unnecessary snacks... and i ate some candy. I'm happy that I was able to keep the portions in check, though. and I WAS starving. and most of it WAS dark chocolate :-) good for you, right?
I am about to buy some health insurance. this will make my trips to the dermatologist a LOT cheaper, hopefully allow me to get SOME of what I paid for my chiropractic treatments returned to me, and cover me if something catastrophic happens. it sucks so bad that none of my immediate family is insured!! I am going to pay $100 a month for health insurance to ENsure that if something does happen like I get hurt or get sick, that my savings account isn't GONE in the blink of an eye.
I am also going to do a prepaid dental plan with Blue Cross Blue Shield... i am going to pay $160 or so for one year, and pay a $10 office visit fee each time I go to the dentist... so that is, if I go 2x a year, $180 for my dentistry needs in one year. Normally, ONE visit costs $100, and thats just for the cleaning. its over $300 without insurance for the yearly checkup with xrays. I can't afford that and neither can my family! So I am going to mail that tomorrow, because I NEED to get to the dentist.
