One of the worst things I do is snack. Whether that's in the evening or at my desk. So the first thing I need to do us stop snacking. Today was the first day of "no snacking". I even told my co-workers that if I was caught snacking or buying things form the vending machine that they needed to stop me. I have no willpower, and sometimes I need a little help along the way.
I also need to give myself a cut off point. So, for example, don't eat after 8pm at night. Give myself a good 10-12 hours overnight without eating. The problem is that from around 8pm I'm not doing anything other than sitting there podcasting, watching TV or reading. So I'm not burning anything off.
So no more snacks late at night!
Of course you still need to treat yourself otherwise you'll go insane. So I won't be banning myself from the odd little treat here and there. It just needs to be in moderation.
I also need to add to the exercising I'm already doing. I have some weights so I'm using them now and one of those sit-up/crunches contraption things. I just need to get into a regular rhythm of doing them and pushing myself. I'm also considering a few other avenues. One of them is going back to swimming again. I was at my fittest around 6-7 years ago when I was swimming, so I want to do that again. I just need to figure out if I can afford the monthly membership. I'm trying to save for my deposit so I need to make sure it doesn't affect that.
There are other possibilities as well which I'm considering.
So yeah. Today is Day 1 of "Get Fit Jim". 😂 I'll track my progress on here. I may even post some stats! We'll see.
I can do this. I know I can!
