So Monday I had to get new tires, went to the shop and had to wait a long time. So what did I do? I walked to get some food down the street. Then when I got home around 6ish, I walked the dog around the block once. It was frigid, I don't think I have ever exercised in so much clothing. I thought that with the walking to dinner and the once around the block it was almost equal (I know it isn't but its better than nothing). Yesterday I didn't walk because I fell asleep on the couch. When I woke up, it was time for me to go back to school for the Christmas performance, which was actually pretty good, and after it was to late (by late I mean it was 7ish and freezing outside). Today I knocked out a nice 2 laps and went to the grocery store (yeah again, I don't like to buy a lot when I go because I end up wasting it). I got some Lean Cuisines that I think I will like. If I can find a few that I like then I will be good, I can mix them in throughout the week and hopefully move into a better diet over a few weeks or so.
I will say that I feel a lot better, less tired, less hungry, sleep better. I still haven't had a coke, which at this point is starting to get to me, I really want some Mr. Pibb (those of you who know me well, know that this is preferred over Dr. Pepper. I am also aware that "dude didn't even get his degree"(Mitch Hedberg fans will laugh at that)) I know one every once in a while won't hurt, but I would rather just not have the temptation because after one, I will want another.
Things I need to do:
1.Get some sort of cold weather gear, the warm up pants don't cut it when its almost freezing outside.
2. Look for more healthy foods to eat that are easy to make (Already have some people willing to help me out with this, a big thanks goes out to them)
Funny story for today, had a student say something very not nice in class today. So I sent them to O.R. (the "opportunity room" which is like I.S.S. for those that don't know). I call the mother's cell phone to let her know, because I didn't even want to write what they said down on the note home. Her "ringback" song was something by Gucci Mane that dropped the "f" word, the "n" word and numerous drug references. I wonder where the kid heard it from.....
You looked all bundled up when I saw you walking today!
ReplyDeleteYou are doing better than me. I had a diet coke and didn't walk.
As you continue to deprive yourself of college drop-out Pibb, your toleration to the sugar will start to drop. I can't handle more than one of those things any more.
ReplyDeleteOpportunity Room... that is priceless, sir.
