Initiating Changes

We have been laying plans for the commencement of the changes to come in my first life.

The steps we agreed upon to improve my overall physical condition are
- improving dietary intake and eating habits (regular meals, no junk food and no snacks),
- improving my fitness through exercise,
- improving my sleeping habits,
- reducing my cigarette consumption or quitting smoking,
- reducing my weight and
- reducing my absenteeism.

The exact goals to be achieved during the three month period from June through August of 2013 are to be agreed upon by me, a personal trainer and a dietician. The hope is that this kick-start will get me on the right track for keeping it up on my own afterwards.

It will all start already on Tuesday with a complete health examination and an expanded health and lifestyle survey, including a fitness test. If I should wish so along the way I can also receive some counseling or other psychological or motivational support.

In the spirit of "Mens sana in corpore sano" it is also hoped that the physical changes will improve my psychological and emotional condition.

Sounds like quite a plan, huh?

    To fail this plan (or most of it) is not an option, buddy!

    YAY! You will feel so much better, Bock! It takes about six weeks before the workouts will stop feeling like drudgery, so hang in there. I am excited to hear about your progress! wtg, fella!

    I am tempted to take the summer off and catch a flight to Stockholm, but Hunter says ..... RUN, RUN Bock! Save yourself before she gets out her credit card! I am known for taking my workouts very seriously :) I will meditate and envision your success, instead :) OOOOOOOHHHHHHMMMMMM :)

      Haha I would prefer you support me through meditation - I can already feel the positive vibrations!

      Oh why would you catch a flight to Stockholm, Copenhagen is much closer to me you know and it's a wonderful city ;)

      Hugs dear Diana and please give Hunter a slap on his rock hard behind from me...
