Handicap: Insufficient and/or Broken Sleep
I have two kids. One is pretty much sleeping through the night but still wakes and needs Mommy on occasion. The other is still an infant and going through growth spurts so it isn’t uncommon for me to have to get up anywhere from two to four times a night just for him. Very rarely do I get a full eight hours sleep and that is definitely a handicap for me. I know from past experience that weight loss and low carb dieting are much easier for me if I’m getting eight hours of sleep out of twenty-four.
I will have to try to take naps and use relaxation techniques daily in order to accommodate for this handicap.
