I am caught up on sleep since the keystones happened, so I would say my sleeping pattern improved. I have stayed hydrated all week still drinking mostly water and orange juice. My nutrition has improved as well. My ability to turn down sugary sweet snacks has greatly improved. I did eat a slice of cake at my work, because I was slowing down and I needed the energy boost. But besides that I've been doing very well. Mentally I feel that I am more focused all-around and physically I am seeing massive improvements. My nightly workouts combined with strength training and eating better, have produced a more muscular and distinguished body everywhere. I tried my best on the Final Farewell workout and impressed myself with my endurance and my score. I'm looking forward to the fitness testing and the final to see how much I improved.

My sleep this week has been about the same. I'm still having dreams most nights and constantly waking up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom.I have been eating healthier, I even went out and bought my own food to put in my lunch. I've been better at resisting unhealthy food. And my hydration continues to be great with only water and orange juice. I'm looking more and more forward to the workouts, because I'm going to the beach next weekend and I'm trying to get in the best shape possible until then. I've also been continuing to do my 100 sit-ups every night and I've already cut my time in half from my first time.

My sleep this week was great. Minus getting up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom, I had at least one good dream every night this week. I have stayed hydrated all this week on just water and orange juice as usual. And I feel like my good eating habits have been slightly dropping lately, but I hope its just a phase and that it ends soon. I used to pack trail mix in my lunches and now I substitute the granola for a healthier granola. I've been substituting a lot of foods lately for healthier alternatives. On Tuesday we did the Surrender workout and on Monday my friend told me that it was the hardest yet. So, on Tuesday I walked in telling myself that I was gonna push myself to new limits. I really impressed myself when I completed 29 rounds. I need to thank Dave for keeping me motivated. But I was ridiculously sore Wednesday night and Thursday wasn't much better. Today I'm still a little sore, but I'm sure I will be 100% recovered tomorrow.

My sleep this week was about the same as last week. Still waking up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom. I also had a lot of dreams. My hydration continues to be excellent just drinking lots of water and a glass of orange juice everyday. My nutrition food wise was good as well. I had a slice of apple pie my mom made, that contained "fake" sugar. It tasted good but if its "fake" I'd imagine it still isn't too good for you. I've also been eating spinach and asparagus because they are good for you even though i'm not a huge fan of the taste. The only new physical changes I've noticed this week is my abs. I started doing 100 sit-ups every night to help with their definition. Mentally I haven't noticed any changes, except that I am understanding things a lot easier in chemistry. This week I was still impressed by me keeping up with Frank, that I've been looking forward to the workouts even more. My friend and I tied on Variety Pack as well, which is an improvement.
