Lack of Sleep

I'm sure this is common with a lot of people.

I've operating on a lack of sleep lately and am just exhausted today. Once I'm out of work, I'll get to the gym and will feel fine and then probably get to bed early...but while at work I feel like I could fall asleep at my desk.

So I'm wondering how people combat this...just lots of coffee? Any other ideas?

an apple or some other fruit. peanuts.

ya, i have a few tangerines w/ me.

peanuts help?

Water, lot's of water. Dehydration can cause fatigue. And too much coffee can cause dehydration.

a handful of peanuts shouldn't be bad. i usually get the nature valley peanut bar. it's just like peanut butter covered in peanuts. tasty and full of energy.

HB,

Another thing that helps is a regular schedule. Going to bed at the same time, getting up at the same time.

I know that when I rarely sleep in on a weekend, I'll be drowsy for hours later, tho I got more than enough sleep.
