I spent my whole morning on my bed thinking about what I want to accomplish for this upcoming week. I feel like I need to really get started on tackling some struggles that I've been having, such as the way I think and feel about food, and my commitment to exercise.

A New Mind!
I think about food more times than I'd like to admit, and well.. I'm quite an emotional eater. I'm really tired of this, so I did some research online and I came across Paul McKenna's book: I can make you thin. I have heard about him before, but never really took it serious. I really want to be more open-minded and check this book out, so I've been reading some reviews, and most were positive. (If anyone else have this book and would like to share some information with me on this, I would be grateful). I really need some sort of solution to help me with how I feel and think about food. I need some sort of control over myself, this has been holding me back over the years! Tomorrow I'm going to seek out buying this book.

Get Up & Walk!
The next thing I struggle with is exercise. I have a few tools like workout videos and a few dumbbells at home, and I attend the the gym at my school (although I have neglected it now that classes are over), but this week I want to set a challenge for myself. The sun is shining everyday now, so I want to challenge myself to get my lazy butt up and take a walk everyday this week. The fresh air would do me some good and I would be burning some calories. And the thing is, I have a vitamin D deficiency, which explains quite a bit for why my body feels tired, so you can tell I don't go out much. I even neglect to take my vitamins! But, if I can do this, I'm hoping this could a be a new habit, even if I can't commit to going to the gym and doing a workout video.

So what now?
I like ranting at myself; writing this entry made me think, why wait until tomorrow to start? You're already mad at yourself for not doing the things you want to do. Why not change that now? I think.. No, I AM going to take a walk today.
