“I talk… to myself… and I don't listen…”

May 26, 2011 The habit change of June

Activity:

Starting on June 1, or earlier perhaps, I am going to start walking more.  It sounds small to some, sure. You have to understand, though, I’m not that active.

My job is in information systems. This means that I sit in a chair all day with very little activity. I don’t move around at all unless necessary. So ONE of the things that I’m going to work on in June is activity.  This means:

  • I won’t take any elevators.
  • I won’t take escalators.
  • I won’t sit all the time.
  • When I get home I will work on not being stagnant even while doing things that, by nature, are stagnant.

Food:

Here are the dietary changes that I’m going to make.

  • Cut out all carbonated beverages and stick to only water and certain teas.

Now, I’m not quite sure I can carry out these things but I’m going to give it my dead level best.  I’ll journal about it here.
