Sometimes you've just got to step up make some changes if you want to get where you want to be. And I think today is going to be the day I step up.
It sounds kind of strange to be only 25 and male to boot and already be making these kinds of "lifestyle changes" but I am. It's important for me to realize that these changes are not just about my body and health--- I am hoping to really change my whole attitude---my whole life.
I'm nervous about this, having failed so many times before. I did Atkins for a couple weeks- didn't lose anything and I was tired all the time--- not for me. And then there was my fantastic 9 hour stint on the Slim-Fast plan
My goal is to get down to 180-185 pounds, wherever my body and mind tells me is good. I have no idea what I weigh right now. I'm waiting til tomorrow morning to weigh-in for my starting point.
Basically my plan is a simple one: heathful eating, drinking lots of water, lots of regular exersice and PORTION CONTROL! I am also hoping to kick my rather awful caffine habit... but one thing at a time
I am hoping that by journaling I will be able to hold myself accountable for my progress. While the people out there who may read this I have never met, I won't want to let them down (or myself for that matter.)
I know this was kind of a mouthful, but I'd love to join you all on your respective journeys if you'll have me
Now I've got to go figure out a heathful dinner for tonight.
Ready to start,
Rick
