    Eat Breakfast. Think about it like this, when a car needs gas you put gas in the car. Now car now has fuel to drive, well your body is just the same. Your body need food, not those artificial flavor/color foods or high fructose corn syrup. All of that is poison for your body. Try 2 hard boiled eggs and a protein bar/protein shake. You should have at least 20 grams of protein in the first 30 minuets you wake up.

    Drink your water: Drink at least 6-8 8oz. of water a day, you will notice a big difference and feel like 100 bucks. Avoid sodas they contain aspartame which is like drinking rocket fuel. If you have to drink soda avoid diet soda. Its actually a lot worse than you think it is.

    Workout: Every commercial do sit ups, push ups etc. If you really are in the mood to work out, do workout videos at home. (Julian Michaels) If you have a gym membership go to the gym at least 5 times a week. If you feel sore, don't work yourself too hard. You don't want to pull a muscle and end up in the hospital
