Day One

I'm on a new health kick. Yesterday was Day Zero when I killed all my demons (ie I had a bacon bap for breakfast, and slobbed around the house for most of the day). It was a laying to rest of the habits that have brought me down recently.
This is a weight tracker for over the last 6 months or so:

It's obvious where this was heading. And I want to get back to where I was in November.  That felt far more comfortable.

So I've put that out there with the idea it'll shame me (perhaps 'motivate' would put a more positive spin on it...) and hopefully, in a few months time, the curve will be flipped over.

Today's run was a bit of a struggle - perhaps because I ate so much yesterday.

And yet:
5.17km
6m 29s per km - which is surprisingly faster than recently.

And so: day one. This is where new habits start. I'm not going to slob around quite so much; I'm going to do those niggling little jobs that are so easy to ignore. I'm going to take care of myself better, vut right back on the wine, be confident that it's ok to make mistakes.

Watch this space...
