So I have actually been sorta succeeding at going to bed on time. Midnight is a very doable goal and I have been doing it 9 am I have managed a few days but not many...BUT I'' up by 10:30am so thats a damn sight better than 1pm  

 I have not done my before bed routine...like at all  It sucks bc like it shouldn't be a struggle to take meds, brush your teeth and shower at night...but it is. I mean I guess I have been showering, just not before bed! lol

I got the logo for my business done today and bought the domain name too! Now I just have to learn photoshop to edit the logo to use for FB and IG  

and I got my hair done!!!

and I made food: Slow Cooker Spinach and Artichoke Chicken

Haha...I never really know how I get them to work, I just keep effing around with it until it does!  

 

Whaaaat?!  What is this nonsense?!  I find cashew milk far superior to almond milk...so rich and creamy.  It does wonders for protein shakes!

hahahaha at least im not alone in not knowing what im doing! 

and I dont like actual cashews so it made sense i wouldnt like the taste of it.

I've never tried cashew milk, I might give it a whirl.

 

It takes a while to develop a routine and even still, something could throw it off. Don't worry about this imperfection, try again and it will come.

Thanks  

Last night was even worse! Went to bed at 3am, got up at 12:30pm. 

The good news is I am submitting a project plan to work with a graphic designer on a company logo for my business! 

I love how this is coming together in my head...

step 1: get a logo (sent proposal)

step 2: get a website (planned for Nov. 1st)

step 3: design website (already have a designer) 

step 4: start social media accounts

after that im not sure what to do, but this is all coming in time and im in no rush to make it happen. 

Hi  This challenge looks great!!! I can't wait to watch your progress! 

Hiiiii  I am interested in your "money diet"! Do you mind sharing more about that?

Maybe I'll play a Chicken Brain card this time around, too.

 

 

Hi I'm new to your thread and love it here. I'm going to stay if you dont mind  I think Chicken Brain is an excellent idea. I handle men like this all the time bc if they think you are dumb, they underestimate you and you can manipulate the situation exactly how you want to. 

I loooooove your mindset for this challenge! Sorry you aren't feeling well but I'' glad you chose to continue your challenge! I look forward to seeing your progress! 

Hiiii  I love the simplicity of your challenge  You don't need to make it fancy to make it happen! I wish you all the best and will be following along. Do you do yoga classrs or dvds? 

hiiiiii  I'' a bit late to the party apparently, but I wanted to show up and say hi! I will now go play in the corner with the dogs while you dance! 

hiiiiiiii  I'm subbing obviously

I'm not counting week 0 but I totally freestyled on my yoga mat yesterday. I put some hip-hop on spotify and improvised a flow, following what my muscles needed. It was a lot of fun. :-)

This is my absolute favorite kind of yoga. I call it intuitive yoga. Freestyle yoga is an excellent name though! I love your challenge. Have you ever heard of Thug Kitchen? They are a group of badass vegan chefs that wrote a cookbook and it is phenomenal! Great resource if you dont know of them  

Good luck on your challenge! 

I'm jumping in entirely during week 0 because I just need to. I need to get myself started being more productive during the day now that I started a business and sleeping till 2pm every day won't accomplish much! 

So I'm failing already. I got up at 11 today, went to bed at 1, but got 2 of 3 for my bedtime routine! 

I guess tbh I shouldnt call that failure, its just not perfect. 1 am is better than 4am and 11am is better than 2pm. So its progress! 

P.S. I fucking hate cashew milk! 

Wow that is an intense situation. I get it though. I got fired from a job bc I never understood the "what everyone actually does" part of work. Some of the things you said remind me of a book I read once called Highly Sensitive Person. 

Some days an early bedtime are just what the doctor would recommend  

Hiiii  Those charts are fantastic and I love them! I'm sorry things have been rough lately! It's funny but sometimes losing something like a favorite pen feels huge

BEKAH!!!!!

 

 

It's good to see you!

How did you get that to post correctly? I tried and it doesnt like me yet! lol

and hiiiiiii  I'm glad to see you too!!! 

I bought this fabric for my business today. That made me smile. 

Plus being back here! I missed you guys 

Hiiiiiiiiiiii  

Visibility and working arms are highly overrated 

OMG I MISSED YOU!!!! (not too much, thank god for Facebook!) 

I'm back too!!!! 

I'm baaaaaaaaack!!!! Did ya miss me??

 I missed you!!!!!! 

Ok so first and foremost...they changed things! I don't know how to make my posts as pretty anymore! 

I have been doing a whole lot of nothing...literally. If Facebook was a sport I'd win the Olympics! Eating like an asshole and not moving basically sums up the last year goalwise! 

I had to give up yoga teacher training and felt like a failure at it and that put me in a serious funk for a good long while! The good news is I AM STABLE MOODWISE!!! New med combo and it works perfectly, other than making me sleep for like 12 hours. I need to force myself to wake up before then, but I just don't and the meds put me out if I let them. 

So goal #1: Wake the fuck up! lol

Get up at 9 am everyday. 

Which starts with going to bed on time. 

So goal #2: Go the fuck to bed. 

Go to sleep by midnight. 

Let's stay with this beftime theme shall we? 

To make going to bed on time easier, a before bed routine is necessary. I will limit it to 3 things...shower, brush teeth, take meds. 

Goal #3: Start a before bed routine. 

Sometime in this challenge (Nov. 4th tentatively) I am getting a nutrition plan and fitness plan from my new personal trainer and will have to incorporate that into my life so I think a bedtime challenge is a perfect complement to that. 

So that's that. I love you guys 

I had a pic but Im away from wifi so cant post it. I got a mandala coloring book, thug kitchen cookbook and energy oracle cards <3333333

Thank you Santa!!!!

I screwed up and made the exchange date the 15th, when I intended that date to be the end date to send gifts. I had intended we open them on or after Xmas (or at least wait to share until then) but if you all have them then no reason not to open them now.

I love you and I appreciate you and I am sorry you are dealing with PT but it looks like you are handling it rather well this week I skipped around too, are you drawing a map?
