Day 1: Complete!

Alright, so day one of 'it's time' is in the books!In the interest of full disclosure, I was about 800 calories over the target that MyFitnessPal suggested.Whoops.But you know what? THAT'S OKAY!Rome wasn't built in a day, right? The important thing, I think, is that I even recorded everything I put in my piehole today. And you know what else? I made a plan for myself tomorrow! Here's my plan:

  • Wake up, make that bed!

  • Coffee, the ambrosia of the gods

  • Exercise! At least 20 minutes!

  • Shower

  • Get dressed

  • Breakfast (log it on The Pal)

  • Get word count in for Camp NaNo (I'm already behind :/ )

  • Lunch (log it on The Pal)

  • Go to work!

  • Brainstorm next blog post

  • Work on a short story for The Golden Nib contest

... and the plan kind of goes on with some more inane things, but you get the picture!I think the important thing to remember here is baby steps. Too much too soon will put me off, and I'll spiral right back where I don't want to be. Baby steps are okay! I want to be sure that I am building healthy habits that will last. I don't know how you're feeling about this, but I'm actually a teensy bit optimistic here. Which is a lot coming from a perpetual pessimist!Alright, time for day two! Let's do this!
