Best I've Felt In Quite Awhile!

So I've been having trouble sleeping for quite awhile lately. I think it's a combination of stress, the lack of sleeping hours that comes with working two jobs, and everything else involved. Last night I finally broke down and bought some Melatonin. One thing is, I hate taking pills. I don't like the feeling of dependency on medication at all. But by this point I was desperate for some relief from my waking spells all night long. I woke up this morning with the clearest head I've had in quite awhile. I woke up not feeling like I immediately wanted to go back to sleep, and that's amazing. I don't remember waking up at all last night.

I'm sure the fact that I only have one job now and don't have to wake up early anymore helps. And probably eating a little healthier and working out more consistently factors in as well. But whatever it is, it's making me feel 100x better!

The funny thing is, I feel like I might be developing a little cold. And yet, even with that, I still feel amazing. So that speaks for itself. I just made this all natural cold remedy and it's actually working pretty well! If you wanna try it, it is: 3 cups of water, 2 teaspoons of apple cider vinegar, 2 teaspoons of lemon juice and 2 teaspoons of honey. It doesn't taste too bad at all! I just boiled it on the stove. It says to drink periodically throughout the day, but I'll probably just drink it slowly all at once.

Because I felt so awesome waking up, the first thing I did this morning was workout. Today focused on legs, which is my weak spot, as I've mentioned before. I had to stop a couple of times during the workout because it hurt so much. Hopefully my muscles develop there fairly fast. Maybe I'll throw in another session or two next week.

I ate some plain Greek yogurt mixed with a fresh chopped up green apple, some granola, two teaspoons of honey, and a few raisins. I wanted something savory, so I ate about a 1/2 cup of the black beans I had leftover from yesterday.

For lunch, I plan on eating the rest of my leftover green beans from yesterday, the rest of the black beans, and maybe a can of light tuna. It depends on how hungry I am.

But I'm going to say goodbye now! I've got a list of productive things to do today, like FINALLY updating my resume, shopping for my brother's birthday gift, and applying to a few jobs online.
