This is getting hard

I've done good on my no fast food kick. However, I have to admit, its starting to get hard.

A few guys at work just went over to Hardee's and I can taste those burgers. I'm a big fan of cheeseburgers, they're great. Fast food, while unhealthy, is delicious. I'm a fan, so to speak. So, while I've done good so far, the temptation is starting to grow.

I'll see if I can hold off though. It'll be tough, but I think I can get through the month. Tempation is setting in though.

In other news, I really need to start running again. I've been lazy. Heat index is supposed to get insane next week, so I may try to run in the mornings and avoid it that way. We'll see how it goes.

Belated Wednesday weigh-in: Actually conducted on Wednesday, but not reported. 206 pounds. Even while lazy, the no fast food has paid off.

The new challenge

So, on Saturday, I promised a new challenge the next day. That would infer Sunday. Its now Tuesday.So, I reckon I should put this up.

The next challenge is not exercise related. Its fitness related though.

I'm going with fast food for a month.

Technically, I'm a week into this challenge, as I posed it to myself for when I got back from my trip to Texas. I stopped at a Hardee's on the way home and had my last fast food in a month last Monday. However, if I can make it to August 22 without eating fast food, then I'll be pleased as well.

There is one exception to this rule: Subway. Those subs are healthy, plus sometimes when I have to go cover a meeting, I need some quick foodage. there's quite a difference between a ham sandwich at subway and, say, a Double Whopper at the Burger King.


I might also allow myself the occasional Blizzard, but not often. Hey, that girl scout cookie one is good...ok, I'll lay off those too.

Will keep you posted,

Alan
