FUN

These past few weeks have been a struggle of balancing time, but I have really been working on eating a lot cleaner. My goal is to try to stay as organic as possible because lately energy is something that I need. I have found that eating organic foods rather than artificial foods gives me that extra push that I need to perform at the best of my abilities. I will be honest in saying that I have had a major sweet tooth lately (which isn't unusual for this little piggy), but I find that upping my fruit intake makes me think less about other chocolate delights. Don't let it fool you though, fruit does have sugar but it is a good kind of sugar that your body needs in order to function.

My newest commitment to myself is to get more sleep. I really need to work on getting to bed earlier everynight. I tend to have a lot going on during the day, so at night I stay up late to get things like homework done, and also to squeeze in a little me time which is always nice. Sleep seems to be something that I am usually lacking and this definitely stunts my performance when working out and such. I think that going to bed earlier will also allow me to do my workouts in the mornings before I get busy. This is the time when I prefer working out because if you just get up and do it you can't make up excuses throughout the day of why you shouldn't workout. I'm usually not a morning person, but I think that it will benifit be quite a bit.

Life has been pretty crazy lately with golf and UIL, but there is been success in both so I would say the hard work is worth it. I am really looking forward to Regional UIL and golf (if we move on), but I know that it will take super dedication to keep my diet healthy while traveling so much. Though it will be tough, I know that I can fight the temptations.
