I figured today would be a good time to update. My job is going well, I am still really happy with it. The waking up part is still very difficult for me, hopefully after a few months it will be easier. *crosses fingers* I have to admit that I am not doing so well with the elevator thing… I am really tired when I get in and 4 flights of stairs is really daunting. I realize that is an excuse… but hey, I have been on time every day for 2 weeks, so I have got to pick my battles and appreciate the victories I have. In less than a week, I will be 33. I have not decided how I feel about that yet, aside from the whole double 3 thing being sorta cool when combined with the 3/3 date of my birthday.
Anywho…

My plan to become healthier and lose mass is fairly straight forward. Bring my lunch, eat reasonable a breakfast and dinner and never use the elevator at work.
I will admit, however, that the elevator plan is easier in the evening. Going down stairs is much less taxing. I hope that in time, the morning flights of stairs will become easier.

I am tired, but am looking forward to the day. I hope that I can get enough caffeine in my system to help keep me going today. I am starting to anticipate a really long week. I can definitely see the benefits of arriving at work 2 hours early, however this schedule will take a lot of getting used to. Yesterday, I woke up at 4:45 AM and did not get to sleep until about 10:45 PM. I have been taking melatonin for two weeks now to help regulate my sleep cycle into an earlier schedule. I do think it is helping, but I imagine that a week or two on this schedule will ultimately be what forces my body to accept the new schedule.
I am keeping my word with myself so far that I will take the stairs. I do not think that my arrival at work yesterday counts against this commitment though. One must know Where the stairs are in order to make use of them. Now that I know where they are, I cannot use that excuse.
