Went to the gym last night (I think I'm going to start telling my extended family I'm dating "gym" so they'll leave me alone about being, *GASP* 25 and single - I am totally happy with it) and had a great workout. Did my 3K of rowing that I like to warm up with, and then ran/walked fast on the treadmill for 30 minutes. It felt really good, I slept well and I feel more in control.
It seems when I work out, I need to sleep less - I still sleep a lot - but less than if I don't work out. When I was younger I wanted to be one of those people who got by on 4 hours of sleep. Well, that just isn't going to work. Even when I work out, I need 8 good hours of sleep to be useful the next day. And when I don't work out, I like 9-10 hours of sleep. And naps. Oh, naps are heavenly. I must remember this great feeling of accomplishment and control and power that eating right and working out gives me. Maybe I should take it up a notch from just dating "gym" to making him my boyfriend.
