Enough!

I'm getting old. I don' think I'm old, but I feel old some days. I get tired easily, my knees hurt, I can't get enough sleep, walking up the 3 flights of stairs to my apartment leaves me breathing way harder than it should. I have high blood pressure. Doctors won't believe me when I tell them I'm not diabetic (and I have no desire to become diabetic). I'm a mess. Well enough is enough. I'm going mental for the rest of the week chowing down on my favourite junk foods and then the diet starts on Sunday. I bought a wok on the weekend so I can cook up stirfrys and on payday I'm going to go buy a rice cooker and a scale. The following foods will be completely off limits until I lose at least 40 pounds:
  • Fast Food Burgers
  • Pizza
  • Chocolate
  • Potato Chips
  • Soda Pop (including slurpees)
  • Ice Cream
  • Cakes and Pies
  • Coffee
  • Donuts
  • Candy
  • Cinnamon Buns (my breakfast of choice :( )
  • Anything Deep Fried (yes including french fries)
  • Milk (as a drink)

Yep it will be yogurt and stirfrys for me for a few months anyway. I'm also banning myself from using the car to get anywhere closer than 2km from my apartment and will be doing sit ups daily trying to get rid of this giant spare tire I'm carrying around.

Only as a drink, I have nothing against milk as an ingredient in something else.
