the morning test
One test I use for combatting the flake effect is to sleep on an idea and see if it still makes sense in the morning. Yesterday, I had a ton of ideas simply because I couldn't concentrate and my mind kept wandering (because I barely got any sleep the night before). I went to bed early - around 10 or 11 I think and slept all the way to 10 this morning.
Well, I feel great, and oddly enough, I still think my ideas from yesterday are a good ones:
- I'm going to learn esperanto over the next few weeks.
- I'm going to start work on rantelope ASAP
- I'm giong to start doing the meal portion of body for life
on monday (in addition to the mostly-like-BFL workouts
I've been doing)
Also: my weight had been slowly creeping up from 250 to 251 for
the past 4-5 days. This morning I weighed in at 248.8. My diet
wasn't all that great yesterday and I was actually expecting to
weigh closer to 252. Time and time again, the evidence tells me
that I lose more weight the longer I sleep. I wonder why I never
see that in health books?
Maybe I'll publish a self help book on the "Sleep Diet" and make a zillion dollars. Then I can buy a bed. :)
