So, I've lived my life kinda by the "day at a time" line of thinking, but, in doing so, I've become out of shape, lots of bad habits and a fair amount of debt considering. I spent last year thinking about what I want to do/be, without any of the actual doing.
A little background, I used to be in fairly decent shape, playing weekly sports all through high school and college, and stayed with it for a good 10 years there after, but then life got in the way, made some large changes, numerous times and the sports fell by the way-side. That's probably where my decline started, health-wise. Also due to no small amount of a DrPepper Addiction, and I mean like, 1+ 2L/day, along with not an active lifestyle. So, needless to say, I've gained a good 30 pounds of fluff that I'm not super proud of.
Up until this morning really, I was starting my workday with an energy drink, maybe a liter of water during the day, and a 750ml DrPepper, then, I'd either go to the bar after work with friends, or, I'd head home and sit in front of my computer and drink another 2L of DrPepper....
So, yesterday I ran out of all soft drinks, and I've decided I'm not going to buy any more for as long as possible. So, this morning, no energy drink, and no DrPepper all day long. I nearly caved at lunch when I went out for lunch from work, but, went with a Lrg Hot Chocolate instead of Pepsi, not the most healthy of choices, but, not terrible, it'll be a long slow process.
And, once I go a week without my main addiction, I'm going to see if I can start waking up, maybe doing a small workout before work, and see how that goes. Getting in a daily workout routine is a goal of mine that I've never successfully executed for more than a two week time period, so hopefully I can start this now and by the time the warm weather gets here, I'll be less self conscience about my sweet dad bod...
Thats all for now. I don't make nearly enough entries here, and, I actually deleted a draft I had in here from like, 6 months ago, which means I havn't even tried to make one in that time, even though I'm on the site daily. I guess I just feel I don't have much worth sharing, and, I want to do more, but, I'll make no promises at this time.
But, I need to get to bed, waking up for work in 4 hrs.... Also a bad habit....
