Time for Tips

Just a quick tip before I head to bed for the night: go to sleep! Seriously! I was always made fun of as the old lady in her twenties. All of my friends think I'm a grandma because I go to bed so early. But I can't emphasize enough how important sleep is for your health!

So many good things happen while you sleep. Your metabolism breaks down fat, your muscles rest up, your brain gets everything in order.

And, sleep is also so important because often, when we don't get enough sleep, we wind up snacking endlessly to try to get the energy we could have had by getting to bed a bit earlier. Has that ever happened to you? It's one of those days where coffee just isn't doing it, so you grab a chocolate bar for the sugar, and then load up on carbs... and before you know it, you've eaten about 800+ more calories than you normally would.

So make a pact with yourself right now. Doesn't everyone want to sleep a little more?
