[quote=Anonymous]For those of you PPs who really like TV: if you have a treadmill or eliptical or whatever in your house, and you haven't done this already, I would recommend looking into getting a whole house DVR. I have a TM in the basement and we put a small tv down there, but I still didn't feel like using it in the morning b/c all that's on that early in the morning is CNN or infomercials, and neither one will hold my attention. then we got the whole-home DVR which has killed two birds with one stone: I go to bed earlier because I don't feel like I'm missing anything, and I'm more motivated to get on the TM early in the morning (5:30) because I can use that time to catch up on all that mindless Real Housewives crap that I watch. I feel less crappy watching it if I'm busting ass on the treadmill at the same time. But OP, I hear ya on the struggle to get enough sleep. For me it's a good night if I am in bed by 11, and the only nights that I really force myself to do that are the nights before my 6:30 a.m. spinning class that requires me to be up at 5:50. Otherwise I might not get to bed until midnight. I know that they say that you need 7 hours of sleep to avoid those two hormones that make you want to eat more (gherelin and another whose name I cant' remember) but there's just so much to do at night. And on nights when there's not a lot to do, I end up vegging on the couch which makes it so hard to get up and get ready for bed.[/quote]
