Do as I say, not as I do :)

Jet lag is something I've really been getting used to lately!

Flying through 7 time zones is though on your body. Before hand I was really worried about the jetlag I would get when arriving to Finland, I didnät want to spend my Christmas in a blur, so already before hand I decided to do everything in order to get good sleeps and get to the right time quickly. I had read earlier, that working out after reaching your destination will help with jetlag. After arriving to Finland I took a walk in the rain instead of taking a nap like rest of my family. Next morning I went for a slow run to wake up my body. I think those workouts were essential in getting to Finnish time. I didn't really feel tired or blurry at all and I didn't have any headaches.

Getting back to routines: Shakeology for breakfast!

How ever, something happened on our way back, and I just didn't do my workouts the following day of arriving home. Maybe it was because everything had gone so fine going west. And maybe, because I was thinking that I just might wake up a bit earlier in the morning, but that would only allow me to do my workouts early (which would be a good thing). On the first day back home I was active with unpacking and putting things to their own places, but that wasn't enough. At 7 pm I just couldn't keep myself awake and I dozed off on the couch. My whole body felt totally asleep and had trouble trying to get to my bed for a night sleep instead of sleeping on the couch. Luckily I'm a fast learner, so next morning, after waking up at 5 am, I decided to do as I've told others: workout to help with jet lag! So after waking up early, I put on my workout gear and headed down to basement to my fitness area. I did PiYo Sculpt and I've felt much more awake the whole day. And I was able to stay awake until 10 pm! I did wake up again after 5 am on Monday morning, but that was ok. It was anyway time to get back to routines: morning workout with P90X, shower, Shakeology and getting kids ready for school.

Sometimes you just have to do it the hard way in order to get things going the right way :)
