SLEEP!!!
Yes i'm well aware of the importance of sleep especially during a prep but when it's your own body you think your okay and you have a good handle on everything, that is until you hit a brick wall like I did on Sunday.
Today was my regular visit with Jon Davie, I spoke to him about my drained body and negative thoughts two days ago and he even said I still looked drained. We assessed everything (nutrition etc) but he already knew it was my lack of sleep that was causing all this. We did discuss this previously but now I have no choice but to take it very seriously if I want to see results. I actually managed to squeeze in a 45 minute sleep after seeing him, my god it was one of those deep, deep sleeps that I must have needed. I'm feeling better already but I know I need more and will make sure I get it when ever I can.
After my regular visit with JD I have my regular phone call to Lia, she has been my wonderful supporter since day one and knows me better then I know me ;-) As soon as she hears my voice she knows whats up with me lol. So another peep talk from her had me heading straight for the bed for that awesome nap I had today. Sometimes you just need someone to tell you what you need to do, just hearing it come from someone else other then yourself makes a HUGE difference as to whether you take action or not. So thank you once again sweetheart :-)
As for the results today, they were good but could have been better, but I am happy as I am still dropping and that is all that matters right now. Once I start getting more sleep my body will be able to respond alot better and I should see some great improvements.

There's no need to thank me. Depositting sleep into your sleep bank is all the thanks I need. I'm glad it helped, a couple more days like today and you'll be firing on all cylinders again Deb. ;o) xxx
