Exercise five days a week (read all 2 entries…)
Untitled 4 months ago

For now I’m going to count walking to work as my exercise and once that is a habit I’ll add in some weight training. My work has an on-site fitness center and the monthly membership costs less than a week of lattes.

be healthier (read all 6 entries…)
I'm putting all my related goals at the top. 4 months ago

I always make all these grand plans about how I’m going to get in shape and lose weight and be fabulous and nothing ever manifests. I need to start with small stuff.

  • walk to work
  • stop visiting the coffee cart in my building
  • related to the above, have oatmeal and fruit for breakfast instead of a scone and latte
  • pack a lunch instead of eating out

walk to work
I've moved even closer to work 4 months ago

I’m now within walking distance so I’m going to start walking now that the weather is better.
