time for a change

I was at church tonight, walking through the hallway connecting the old to the new part of the church, when I caught a glimpse of my reflection in the window. I was shocked at what I saw. I knew I had put on weight, but I had no clue how much my appearance showed my weight-gain. I cannot say I am surprised, but I can say that I have just ignored it. It is not that I thought it would just go away (in my dreams, perhaps?), just that I was not prepared to deal with the problem.

Yes, I do consider it a problem. It is not a problem just because of my appearance (vanity?), but because of how it is affecting my life. I am so uncomfortable. I feel bloated. I do not recognize myself in the mirror.

So, I am posting this to have some sort of accountability for what I am about to say. I am going to do something about it. I am not sure exactly what, but I must do something. I must take action.

I am going to make two simple goals for the next 7 days:

1. Drink 100 ounces of water each day.
2. Start back with fitday. At this point, I am not sure what my goals will be, but I will start tracking my food each day.

It is most definitely a time for a change.
