I feel like I almost didn’t eat enough calories today. It wasn’t terribly healthy :) I went realized I was pretty hungry when I went to bed but I was too tired to think much about it.
So the video said to drink lots of water before eating anything and before you start your day. 1 to 2 liters. Now I don’t know about you, but 2 liters is a looott and before I even drink that to get to breakfast it will be 3 in the afternoon.
So, I will drink a lot of water, maybe half a liter and start there, then take a vitamin or two and begin the day.

Feeling drowsier during the day because you didn’t catch enough ZZZs at night may make it easier for you to give in to temptation, suggests a preliminary study to be presented at the 2011 meeting of the Associated Professional Sleep Societies.

When you don’t get the rest you need, “you might not have the ability to say no to that extra cookie or dessert,” points out Killgore, and you’re a little more likely to take in a few extra calories a day.
