Stacia’s personal challenge of the week is sleeping for at least 7 hours a day, or, if not, napping throughout the day, to revive her energy. To see her upcoming challenges, check out her challenge of the week page under the Agenda tab.
So, what a difference a day makes. Especially when you only get to sleep for about 5 hours or so.
Restructuring your blog. And buying a domain.
First off, welcome to my new URL: www.staciapriscilla.com! It’s now fully functioning, and you can type less on the browser now.
Second of all, I overate. Simply said. Well, if you want more devilish details, I ate about 3000 calories today. And you wonder why I stay slim.
The good thing about watching how much sleep you got in relationship with the quantity and quality of what you eat is just fascinating – a week ago, I also ate that much calories, only the bad quality. I think I ate some white bread or such, and there’s really just sweets and tons of binging on almonds. Throughout the week, I actually stocked up on a lot of food in my pantry. Whole wheat tortilla, buckwheat soba, quinoa pasta, fresh pea tips, alfalfa roots, arugula, garlic, onion, low-fat cheese, pure soymilk, TLC and Cheerios cereals, flaxseeds, blueberries and strawberries and blackberries and little apples… And I swear that I’m seeing tons of differences already just by changing what I eat, despite eating that much calories.
The thing is, I don’t require that much.
My day is just full of sitting in front of the computer doing my homework on Adobe Illustrator, plus walking about places to check off my to-do list. And showered twice.
When I got back home, my roommate gave me a piece of strawberry cheesecake made out of the school baking class (my roommate studies in a culinary school) so I think the sugar’s building up the buttercup in me too. But all in all, I think I have only my sleep deprivation to blame. Because self-control is, I believe, unlimited, or limitless – whichever is fine.
So yeah, I think I should sleep earlier today. Just to catch up. Can’t wait for this Sunday’s switch of daylight savings! One extra hour of sleep is as precious as you make of it.
Muchaluva,
Stace
