Was gonna say I don’t think I’ve ever made one. I generally just get that “oh god I’m old” dread then be fine the next day.
Mine have been awesome. I was always pretty strict about exercising and eating healthy, but I moved it up a notch and so far so good.
It's been an awesome year so far!
So far, they are going well. I have a few goals I am working towards.
1st. Working towards significantly reducing my alchohol consumption. Kinda started last year in reducing what I drank. Decided after XMas to do Dry January. After reading a few articles, I decided to keep the streek going.
2nd. I've been wanting to work out more, mostly cardio. Relized, I have been getting winded easily. Started last week doing a regular 3 days of cardio, mostly biking/spin as it's easier on my knees. Plan to keep the streak going going for a few weeks before I try to add another day to the lineup or drastically change my diet.
3rd. A few roles I have been looking at want someone who also knows some programming. I signed up for Python coding classes for data management. I'm still going through the basics. I am lucky, I can spend a few hours each week to work towards getting better at it.
Never had any sooo...good?
Forget New Years Resolutions, how is the New Years Revolution coming along?
Flossing: pretty good. I occasionally forget but most of the time I realize it pretty fast because my teeth feel…thick or something.
Cutting out Diet Coke: quite good. I was super disciplined for about four weeks before I had one, in part to see how bad the cravings would be afterward. It was okay, but at the same time I could tell how easily it would be to become addicted again. Have only had it one other time (yesterday) but I’m sick so I’m giving myself a pass.
