Day 195: Making changes

I am not one for New Year's Resolutions. I don't like them simply because people make them so flippantly with no intention on keeping them. I have been wanting to start working on making myself healthier. I used to workout and watch what I was eating, and when I was doing that I was feeling better. I felt more energetic and was able to get more done.

Since before moving here, I stopped caring about it all. I stopped exercising and stopped watching what I ate. I have gained 8 pounds and I can feel it. I can feel myself slowing down and not caring about taking care of myself. So, I am getting re-motivated to start taking care of myself again. I took the first step today. I started watching what I ate and I went for a walk with the kids. It is a small step, but a good first step.

Here is to the first steps in making good changes to my life. I am taking it one day at a time both with my own personal health and getting through this deployment. I have said it before and I will say it again. It is the best I can do, and it will get me through this.
