Count the points

January 5th, 2009 by admin

Today is of particular difficulty. It is the first Monday of a new year. First Monday after the big holidays. So here we are in 2009. The holidays take their toll on a diet plan that is for sure. I mean I think the holidays were invented by chocolate and cake salespersons. Regardless of how we spent 2008; 2009 is here and we have a chance to do something amazing with it.

I woke up this morning with one goal in mind. (my resolution list) I want to lose (5 lbs a month) for the next year. I mean how hard can it be to cut back enough to lose a meager 5lbs? Well, based on my track record…pretty darn hard. So, when I woke up this morning I had a plan. I was going to track my food with a points (weight watchers plan). I have long loved the analytical nature of the WW Points plan. I created an excel spreadsheet to help me keep my points in a visual manner. If you would like a copy of the excel to use for your own journey I will be glad to provide to you via email.

I have been beating around the bush around concerning the reasons for the new found ‘zeal’ to recapture the control of my eating habits. Sometime between Thanksgiving and January 1st I realized I was about to turn 40. (Yes, I said forty). I had such a great Christmas with my daughter this year. It was her first “real” Christmas and I enjoy watching her open her presents so much I realized I wanted to be here for many years to come. So, my resolution was to make 2009 MY YEAR. This is my 40th year alive! I don’t feel old. I don’t act old (well maybe). I don’t look old. So, I have decided to be 40 years young!

I have created a 40th year resolution list. (Similar to a bucket list) Here is my list of 10 things to accomplish this year:

  • Finish my book by May 1st.
  • Go scuba diving in bahamas again.
  • Lose 5 lbs per month for the next year.
  • Pay off debts (credit cards, car, etc)
  • Buy a bicycle to go riding with my daughter
  • Have a great 40th birthday party with my friends.
  • Smile and laugh more.
  • Spend more time with my family (brother, mother, father)
  • Finish my degree (6 more classes)
  • Go dancing more.

    The way I see it…a man that has all those things is both wealthy, loved, and fulfilled. If at the end of the year I have accomplished those things I can say that I have taken control of my life and the ‘out-of-control’ man I was in my youth is gone and I am in my prime of life.

    Friends, family, and lurkers are free to join me on the ride…. it’s 2009… every day counts and there are no points award to those who check out early!
