I need a pedicure, and I'm not ashamed to admit it. And I need highlights in my hair. And I need to color the gray out of my goatee. And I need a tan.
I need lots of that stuff, but chances are I will only do....none of them. Pedicures aren't really recommended for us diabetic types, but I hear they're pretty awesome. As long as there's no coloring or painted flowers involved, it shouldn't be more of a challenge to my manhood than I could handle. But really it's all a part of my life re-boot. I mentioned yesterday that I needed to change a lot of things; the most important of those things being eating right, exercising more, and being in better general health.
The second part to starting again is having a better self-image. Right now I think I am a fat, sloppy pile of doo that loses his breath walking up the stairs and can hardly tie his shoes. That's really bad, and the problem is that it's reality. I've decided that rather than beginning with walking, I am going to go straight to running. Tomorrow after work, I'll get in the truck and measure a mile, and then two. A guy I work with used to be pretty heavy, and he started out by just running and going for it. And it worked! So tomorrow morning the weights begin, and tomorrow night the running begins.
My life reboot involves some other things, but let's see if I can't tackle these things first. Besides, I need you people coming back for more.

Shame you're not still here...I could have breathed on you and given you this flu!...I have lost SEVEN pounds in three days!
ReplyDeleteI don't recommend it! haha.
(oh, and I'm no Lydia, but I would start with walking first and build up to running...if you can't breath to tie your shoes...well...what are your favorite flowers just in case hahahaha.)
Funny how we aren't so motivated until we feel totally gross. Good luck getting back to where you want to be! I started back in January after nearly a year of skipping excercise, did GREAT for 2 months then chose to sleep in instead. Back to now, getting back into it.....time for me is the factor, as I am sure it is for everyone. WE WILL GET THERE!!! SUMMER IS COMING!!
