So, today being the first day of the rest of my life and all, I tried to make some changes. Nothing major, but a nice day overall. Tomorrow I will have to post about my eating habits, they are without a doubt my biggest issue. My brain still wants to eat like the 20 year old athlete I was, rather than the 40 year old I want to be. The 40 year old I am can't call himself an athlete and changing that is my goal.
As for today I did ok. I drank less Diet Pepsi than usual (none at lunch) and I went home for lunch instead of fast food. However my light lunch kind of fell apart because Taco Bell called to me on the way back to work and I added 400 calories to my day with a Chicken Burrito Supreme. I guess it could have been worse, I used to always get a Chicken Stuffed Burrito, which is 650 calories....small victories.
On the exercise front, I went and hit tennis balls with my kids for 30 minutes after work. I really like tennis and I hope they learn to play. It was pretty low key, but my knees complained anyway, very frustrating, and I know my weight is a big part of the issue. I'll wrap up today's exercise with a dog walk after my wife gets home from the store. Not very cardio challenging but at least I'm moving again, and with the kids is a bonus. Hopefully a little more vigorous tomorrow, and a triathlon plan to start soon... That is all, "before" pics coming soon and I should weigh myself I suppose.
