Kicking Zombie Ass, but No Sleep!

So last night I couldn’t sleep. Started the CPAP machine at 9:00 p.m. By 12:00 I was still wide awake, so I yanked off the face mask and shut off the machine. The man had the living room television loud, so he could hear it when he came to bed. There he was, snoring up a storm and I was awake. So at 1:00 a.m. I got up and shut it off. I finally fell asleep, only to dream of some kind of zombie experiment gone awry and having to save my kitty. Woke up about 2 a.m. and stayed that way till the alarm went off.

Wondered how I was going to do on the stair machine, but once I put on my workout music, the ½ hour went by fast! I made a new playlist with fast rocking women and I love it. Made me feel like a butt-kicking femme fatale! At least I finally feel like I have a routine in place. I don’t like working out at 3:15 a.m., but I accept that I need to…damn the bad luck!

Everyone has advice on what I should eat and what I shouldn’t. I’ve told everyone at work that I’m on a lifestyle change, which I am, not a DIET! I’ve been bringing my healthy lunches, etc. Can you imagine if I even entertained the idea of bariatric surgery with most of my co-workers? The comments I would get. Not so sure I’m ready for all of that.

Got home and got on the machine and you'd never believe it. I was on it for 61 minutes at level 2. Not that I intended to do that but when I finally opened my eyes to look at the minutes, I was at 47 minutes. Then I thought..."Hell, I can do 3 minutes more". Once I got there I figured I was too close to an hour not to do it. Got to 61 minutes. Damn, I hope to hell it makes me sleep like the dead!
