Adventures in Polyphasic Sleep: Day 2/3

Sorry, I didn't get around to posting yesterday's update, so I'll do a joint day 2/3 post.

I'm starting to feel tired. I think that for the first day and a half, my body was just thinking I was staying up late. So far though, it hasn't been horrible. I have found that eating a snack and a bit of exersize after I wake up helps with waking up.

Day two I slept through my morning alarm (I think I turn it off in my sleep as I can reach my clock from bed), so I ended up getting more sleep than I planned. I think it is safe to say I'll be moving my clock soon ;D. Even though I have been starting to see some rough spots, I am planning on sticking with this 'adventure' for at least a month.

Cheers all and I'll try to keep everyone over at the BC updated.

keep it up!

That's good to hear that you are sticking with it and plan on trying it out for a month. I'm sure the first couple weeks are going to be rought, but once you get yourself on a routine your body should adjust.

Good thinking about eating a snack and exercise. Eating helps wakeup the brain and exercise helps wake up your body. I should listen to my own advice because I'm horrible about eating breakfast and exercising regularly (if ever!) unless you count running about a 1.5 year old all day exercise :)

Keep it up! The first few days are the true test.

Oh, I hope you don't mind that I added a link to your previous post at the end of this post. I thought it would be neat for newcomers to see your previous progress.

Thanks!

The link that you added is very much welcome :D.

I would like to also add that I have been drinking more water (I read it's a good way to boost energy) and it has been helping along with the snack/exersize.

Here's a link where the idea of polyphasic sleep had first hit me (I wonder if Jason can guess):
