behavior Modification
Oct 10, 2006
dont really eat out alot,
i am addicted to sugar, so i will eat dozens of cupcakes, donuts, cake, pie, ice cream
the ice cream is the worst thing i could eat since its pure fat, i havent had it in a month
this weekend i ate 6 carrot cake muffins with frosting on them and a 1/2 loaf of lemon bread from Trader Joes
the main thing though is my unwillingness to just get out of bed and exercise
i spent the past 3 weekends in bed, on the internet
when i get off work everyday i just go home, make dinner and get on the internet in bed, usully I make some kind of microwave meal, last night i had leftover lasagna from trader joes and i made penne pasta with grilled chicken, the problem is that i ate the entire batch of the pasta, which i think was a 4 person serving
i will just eat, eat and eat and eat, then go to sleep after surfing the internet for hours (hous of carters, perezhilton, livejournal, myspace, youtube)
i have bad habits and behaviors and these behaviors are mostly escapisms
escaping being alone and bored
a few weeks ago i had my cable tv and internet connection shut off so that i could spend more time doing other things and go to bed at a decent time each night.
its helped a little, instead of going to bed at 2am i go to bed at like 11pm or midnight. But the reason its still so late is because i discovered that even with my cable internet shut off i still have wireless from a neighbor or something, so i am still on the computer all the time.
so i've decided to give my laptop to my aunt to keep untill i can work on some behavior modification
i would like to get to bed by 9pm every night and get up at 5am every morning to go to the gym. I have a gym membership at my school and i have not gone in like 6 months.
so i think if i have my laptop taken away i will be able to add another few hours to my sleep time and get some things done in my life. I need to get a permanent job, i need to iron all the clothes in my closet, i need to exercise, i need to mop my bathroom floor and kitchen, i need to clean my car and give my grandmother all her magazines, i need to work on getting health insurance, i need to READ the 4 dozen or so magazines that i have subscribed to. When school is in session, i need to spend more time studying and getting A's and passing my classes. I have alot of shit to do that i dont do cause i am always online.
so yea today after work i am going to drop my laptop off to my aunts house and get to making life happen.

Exercise
Oct 10, 2006
1. my living room is not big enough to walk in let alone exercise in
2. i dont do it, i dont get off my ass, so it wouldnt matter what i had, if i dont use it.
the one thing my gym at home doesnt have though is a treadmill and at my size the best thing for me to do is start with walking and getting on the eliptical machines so that i dont hurt myself and put extra stress on my back and knee joints
i mostly need cardio to lose weight for now, i will do a bit of weight training once i am not in so much pain
my plan for now is to get to bed on time so i can get up in the mornings and go to the gym and get on the eliptical for a half hour and the treadmill for a half hour. try to do just that little bit for the next 3-4 months. Change my behavior , get into that habit, then i will add some weight training, yoga, kickboxing
if you look at the photo reeel on the front of my profile i have pictures from when i was much smaller and also pictures from when i was a fitness fanatic and had lost a bunch of weight.
