Sleep

If you have read my blog or know me personally sleep has never been my friend.   And lately it has gotten worst. I feel exhausted all the time especially in the last month.   Over the years I have taken numerous blood tests, gone to a sleep clinics, a chiropractor, naturopath,  acupuncture, tried different diets, read books to improve my sleep quality and nothing has worked.  I am 34 and I feel like I should have way more energy then I do.   I have been having this problem since I was around 12 years old.  One thing I need to start doing is going to bed and waking up at the same time.  But this can be challenging since I work shift work.  But thankfully I work a lot more night shifts then morning.  I am going to really try to focus on this.  But I think it's time to go back to my doctors and discuss other test options?    Some thing is not right and it needs to be fixed stat!   I also believe if I am get this under control it will help with my weightloss.  

I want to start blogging more.   And I am going to bring back my weekly workout updates and weight in.  I also will start giving myself monthly challenges again.  

How is your sleep quality?   Do you wake up and go to bed at the same time?  Even on weekends?

  2. I struggle with sleep, too. I will say that it's gotten a lot better now that I run. Getting up at 4:30am and running 5 miles, then working all day, then hauling kids to hockey, then coming home and going to bed at 9pm...well, that makes one sleep pretty well. ;)

    Good luck!!
