I got a great night's sleep and woke up before the construction on my building began. So I woke up relaxed and refreshed. I haven't slept so well in awhile and I noticed how much better my morning exercises felt.

I began my morning with a glass of water and a vitamin then I began my ab exercises. I actually found a variation of what I do on AOL, here. I use a balance ball for the standard and reverse crunch but when I don't have it with me, it's just as effective. I did 25 of each set. Also, I found the thigh exercises on the site, too! I did 25 of the flowing plie and the side-lying leg rotations. I'm not a fan on the forward lunges for some reason, but I managed to do 15, in three sets of five.

The great thing about these exercises is that you can do them everyday in the comfort of your own room and they're not complicated. I do them in the morning but if I don't, I know I can do them any time of the day.

Next up for me is a bowl of Cheerios and a glass of OJ (no pulp). And I've decided to set myself weekly goals because my diet and fitness is all mental for me. Last week was pushing myself to go to the gym more often. This week will be water in place of caffeine. Both of those things are hard for me, I couldn't imagine doing both in one week! So I've split them in order to focus on one lifestyle per week, and hopefully both will come together naturally.
