Sleep

This is just a friendly reminder that sleep is your best friend. Not only is it a 100% calorie-free way to get energy, but also it refreshes your appearance (dark circles? UGH). Plus, this extra energy ramps up your self-control, which only makes it easier to stay on Ana's good side :). 

Another good reason to sleep: to burn fat, your body has to go through "gluconeogenesis," a fancy term saying the body has burned up its stored muscle sugar and now must look for something else to burn for energy. However, during gluconeogenesis, your body has a choice of burning antibodies, muscle, or fat. Getting enough rest keeps your immune system (including your antibodies) stronger so you are less likely to get sick- and more likely to burn that fat off instead. 

So, lovelies, stay healthy, stay fit, stay in control- AND GET YOUR FUCKING SLEEP!!
