Every now and then I think to myself that I should really start eating better. And quit smoking. And keep up with a program of excercise. And though it feels a teensy bit like closing the barn doors after the horse has escaped, I'm finally motivated to actually do it. Anticipating my own excuses for the eating, I've signed up with a program that delivers healthy pre-made meals (breakfast, lunch and dinner, for the entire week with a delivery on monday and one on thursday) so I have absolutely no excuse not to eat well. This place is all about the veggies and the no red meat and well balanced everything and all that. I'll have to eat fish at least once a week or so. I don't like fish, but it's good for me, I'm told. As is everything else on the menu. No more meaning to eat healthy and then getting overwhelmed by the fact that I, um, suck at cooking, and I can't plan a proper grocery list to save my life. Somewhere down the road when I am in the habit of eating good foods I can work on doing it myself. Right now is all about removing excuses for not.
Quitting smoking I am slightly more worried about. I have a piss poor success rate with this one, and the only excuse is holy fuck, am I ever addicted. I am planning on slapping a patch on the second I get the results of the tests (whatever way it comes out). Hopefully I can manage to slap myself hard when the urge comes around with the reminder of how scary this all has been and that I'd be utterly stupid to do things known to risk putting me right back in a doctor's office waiting to hear stuff. Excercise I am far more optimistic about because the Wii Fit is ten kinds of OMGFUN, and I am pretty sure once I don't feel like such crap working it back into a routine will be a piece of cake. Eating better and not sucking smoke into my lungs should make it easier as well.
I'm tired of treating my body like crap. Sometimes it hits back.
