I got the first 15 off.
Another 15 would be my goal weight. I don’t know if I can make this – my plateau is somewhere in the midst of this challenge, and I haven’t decided if I want to fight through that yet.
What is an even greater challenge is my career change – I no longer do the physical labor that kept me in shape. I have to find the time, place, and non-monetary related motivation to keep going.
So life without cable has its drawbacks, but I’m surviving it. However, I’m still horribly addicted to tv. How do I break this?
I couldn’t live without the internet. Viva la internet!
I quit my job, so living below my means is technically impossible. But being adrift has only emphasized this goal more to me. The next just I take will provide a paycheck that is devoted to dramatic debt reduction. If I can pay off my car and credit card (which I’m proud to say is less than half of the amount of the average person my age), I will have opened up that money to….start paying off college loans. Argh!
It’s so hard to get ahead, but I’ll figure this out.
