Weight Loss Chart
I droped about 5 pounds for July. I believe it was from starting a 2 meals a day, at 9:30 and about 1:00 with no snacks. Don’t eat many carbs and want to cut down on the amount.

Hourly Sleep Chart
At the beginning of the month I was traveling and towards the end started visiting coffee shops to get a little work in early in the morning.
Goals For August
Cut down on the coffee, set up a nightly routine including exercise, meditation and turning out the lights at 10:30.
There is some New research studying the correlation between sleep, health and the balance of hormones. Initial studies show wetend to wake up with high levels of cortisol and insulin. So this maybe not a good time to start the day with carbs like a bagel, but maybe some quick exercise and protein & healthy fats for breakfast maybe a faster way to balance.
My awake time is still below normal and think that’s a good thing. However the REM or dream time is way too low. I think that has to do with too much caffeine.
Heart Rate at Rest for July 2019
Resting heart rate is still in the same range 55 to 62. Started the month off pretty good and then changed the morning routines to include coffee shops towards the end of the month. I have a couple of new books on meditation that include meditation exercises that will keep me busy long enough to strengthen a good morning practice.
