Resolution

Damn. The year is already 1/3 of the way over and I am heavier and lazier than I have been in years. Enough is enough. In order to hold myself accountable, I'm going to plan my meals, workouts, etc. online in order to track my needed health plan. As it stands, I am 6' tall with a 40" waist and a weight of 255 pounds. My LDL is a little high and my blood work, while technically acceptable, could use some cleaning. I rarely exercise these days and that leads to difficulty in focusing on mental activities and difficulty in sleeping. It is time to change this - way past time.

Here's the general plan - start getting at least 30 minutes of activity daily and eat a responsible diet. The general idea is pretty common sense, but the devil, as always, is in the details.

For diet, I will work with the Diet Doc guidelines given to me when I was partaking in that plan. The plan is approximately 1200 calories with a 40/30/30 food breakdown (protein/carbs/fat). I have sorta half-assed this one before and the times when I followed through with the diet, I didn't get overly hungry and still had energy to workout.

For exercise, it really is a case of putting myself first and getting off my butt more often. It is too easy to sit on the couch and watch America's Next Top Model or Snapped or any of 100 other TV shows. Instead, I need to make moving a priority.

While today is a little late to start this plan, it is on as of tomorrow. Goddess give me strength to be the beautiful warrior I know you intend me to be.
