Disturbed Sleep Patterns

[Midnight-Sparkles]

I started CD 790 yesterday and had a reletively easy first day. Felt absolutely shattered about 8pm and went to bed at 9pm. I expected to be asleep as soon as my head hit the pillow. Who was I kidding...lol, I never got to sleep until 1.30am. I was absolutely buzzing and felt hyper and couldn't sleep, my body felt exhausted and yet my mind was active. I just lay there for hours wanting to drop off. Just what is in those CD packs? I normally fall asleep within ten minutes of closing my eyes. I woke up at 6.30am so have only had five hours.

Does anyone else find that when they are on a VLCD that their sleep patterns are affected, or am I just a freak

Still on a positive note I am 2lbs down on yesterday.

Ive also found that I dont need as much sleep as before starting the diet, although the first two days I had an afternoon nap to keep me out of the fridge.

I used to go to bed real early, about 10.30 but now getting nearer to midnight, and am always up early.

Its good to know I am not the only one! I guess without all that stodgy food inside of us we are a lot more energetic and probably on a natural high from the fact that we know that we are finally in control and losing our excess baggage. I dunno? lol. On a negative note, TOTM just turned up, so maybe that was the problem
