    Pressure is on for me to finish   start on this god forsaken paper that I must do for school. But I don't even want to talk about that. 

    Instead of sharing my irrelevant few days, there is actually something I want to blog about. I don't want to -nor should I- make any excuses for the following statement: I want to be healthy. Sure, loosing weight would be nice too, but first and foremost, I just want to start living a semblance of what we, as humans, are meant to back in our ancestral days. 

    To be honest, I'm quite hesitant to put this thought in writing, because in doing so, I feel as though it's a manifesto with which will hold me responsible. And quite frankly, I am just too damn lazy with no self-discipline. I joke about that, but as I am getting older, I don't think it's acceptable to be joking about a serious matter such as health, and it's about damn time I get my shit together and  practice  learn some self discipline, may that be health, school, financial etc. I need to learn responsibilities, time management and all things adults are supposed to know. 

    Another thing that held - and as a matter of fact, still holding me back- is that I LOVE food and as irrational as it is, I'm afraid that choosing the healthy lifestyle might/will hinder and limit my food choices. Sure, I want less flab and more muscle mass, but I also don't want to be so caught up with being/staying healthy that I've forgotten to live and enjoy the finer things in life. I know; moderation is key, I just have to put it in practice.

     

    To get started, I just downloaded 2 apps on my tablet; one to keep track of my diet, the other to keep track of my exercise. Let's just see how this will turn out.
