I broke two of my cardinal rules and paid the price.
The two rules I broke are: (1) Go to bed early enough to get plenty of sleep, and (2) don't eat late in the evening.
I had to get up for work at 3:30 AM today, so I should have been in bed no later than 9:30 last night. It was after 10:30 I got in bed, so I got less than five hours sleep.
I didn't eat dinner last night 'til after 8:00 PM. I don't care how healthy the food is, if I eat it late in the evening, my body is likely to store it to use some other day.
So, this morning I weighed 213.2, up 0.9 pounds from yesterday, and 0.4 pounds behind my target schedule. I've put myself in a position of needing to lose 1.0 pounds by tomorrow morning just to be on target.
And today's life responsibilities and weather forecast are not helpful. I'm hoping to be able to do some running or walking this evening, but that's not quite as effective as getting the metabolism going early in the day.
