{My Happiness Project} October: Health




It's nearly the end of October and let me tell you... I'm so proud of myself :) Yeah.. So you all know about my quest of wanting to bring sexy back? Well, I've finally done some concrete actions about it. 

So earlier this month, I decided to join the YMCA. I know...I said that I won't join any gym...like ever again (girl meets debt, remember?). But hey, winter is almost here and it's not like I'm going to jog outside, right? I think this membership is good for me. I can cancel anytime I want or I can put it on hold. Plus, I have access to all the classes and even the swimming pool! So, why am I so proud of myself?  I've been going to the gym at least 4 days/week!! (And I even do swim laps, crazy huh?) 

Here's my weekly schedule: 








My other resolution is to get more sleep. Yes, I have trouble getting my zzz's! So here are some things I've been doing for a better night's sleep:

  • Avoid caffeine 4 to 6 hours before bedtime. 
  • Keep a regular sleep schedule - even on weekends. 
  • Try to get at least 7 hours of sleep per night. 
  • Get regular exercise and keep a healthy diet. 
  • Use a sleep tracking device. I use the SleepBot app. It helps you track your sleep. 






I see how only one month in, my little goals are making a huge difference. They've become part of my lifestyle, so I'm not even worried about carrying them over into the upcoming months. 

Stay tuned for November's goal...
