Ok, day one down of eating better. I also got in a 3 mile run. So far so good. Now while we are at it lets work on attitude. I really love my job, but need to be more concerned about myself as opposed to others and how they do their jobs. I don't really know what I can do to get better, but once again this is something else that I think centers on "awareness". I will begin a practice of awareness and keep my thoughts and emotions in check.

Today I will begin a concerted effort at mindful eating. I haven't been nearly the best lately and I notice the pounds creeping up. I know also that my obsession with this can have just the opposite effect with and anxiety and increased instead of decreased intake. So, mindful eating is my plan of attack. This week I will run Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday. I will run at a minimum of four days a week till the first of the year when I will then run five. Life is too short to barely survive. I am going to thrive and spread good cheer around me.

Well, I have been doing better this year than in a long time with my running mileage, but it is now waneing. In addition I am eating and gaining. I will starting tomorrow get a regular schedule down once again and drop about five pounds by the first of the year and then really kick ass and drop about 10 more.
