Day One
Today was day one. Not really, I’ve been looking into these things for my entire life, so there’s really no such thing as a day one, but eating an elephant starts with that first bite.
So today I limited my coffee intake at work. I did feel better than I have felt as a result. I know I have a lot more that I have to limit, change, and begin, but this was my first bite.
In taking that first bite, I chose myself. I chose better outcomes for myself. I chose to take control of the variables that are in my hands. I chose to move forward, because staying stuck isn’t at all my style. (That was a joke. It was funny. IYKYK.)
Today, I made a bonus move of using CBD to help me get through the work day. Tomorrow, I’m going to start doing a lap around the building to increase my motion, and help my body stay aligned during the day.
Over the weekend, I will develop a full plan moving forward, one bite at a time, to improve my nutrition, get my body back in the motion that it needs, and find the answers that Zebras like me need.
In the weeks to come, watch for details on what it takes to actually implement this level of lifestyle change, and you’ll be privy to details about it’s efficacy. You’ll witness my failures, and share in each little win.
Specific To Do Items for this weekend:
- Create list of “Yes Foods” that I have historically felt better when eating.
- Compile the “Yes Lists” for the family. We each have different needs, and I desperately need this to work.
- Create an exercise regimen that will help strengthen my joints and muscles, align my body, and improve my energy level. I will be keeping track of my metrics, but this isn’t about weight. Weight simply changes as a by product of doing what I need to do.
- Create schedule for implementing all of the bites.
I’m heading to bed now. I think I’ve had enough elephant for one night.
