I'm an A+...what are you?

A+ baby...and it's the only one I've ever gotten.

A+ means exactly this for me:

In addition to exercise, stress management and eating the right foods, here are some key lifestyle strategies for Type A individuals. (We are talking BLOOD TYPE people)


  • Cultivate creativity and expression in your life (so true, love to craft)
  • Establish a consistent daily schedule (love me a schedule)
  • Go to bed no later than 11:00 PM and sleep for eight hours or more. Don't linger in bed, as soon as you get up, get going! (I try...)
  • Take at least two breaks of twenty minutes each during the work day. Stretch, take a walk, do deep breathing exercises or meditate. (Starting this tomorrow)
  • Don't skip meals (ummmm, does this mean that a peppermint mocha isn't lunch?)
  • Eat more protein at the start of the day, less at the end (does creamer classify as protein)
  • Don't eat when you are anxious (baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahahah)
  • Eat smaller, more frequent meals (I can totally do this)
  • Engage in thirty to forty five minutes of calming exercise at least three times a week (ohhhhhmm)
  • Plan regular screening for heart disease and cancer prevention (on it)
  • Always chew food thoroughly to enhance digestion. Low stomach acid makes digestion more difficult (this one will be hard for me)

It's also suggesting that I become a vegetarian...I'm just going to go with chewing my food thoroughly for now.

haha this posts reminds me of the book that my grandma read called "eating for your blood type" i'm an O (shoot can't remember if positive or negative - that's not good!) and she gives me the hardest time ever because apparently if you're this blood type you should be eating a lot of meat...i'm a vegetarian - so needless to say she thinks i'm going to die.

now i wish i was an A+ :) maybe she wouldn't give me such a hard time!!
