Today's Been a Good Day

Or at least I tried to make it a good day.

I got up this morning, went on a 2.5 mile walk, got some shopping done and only made it to work a little late ;)

But you I know nothing has changed. Or at least it feels like nothing has changed. I have so much work to do, on myself. But it's hard to dig through all the bullshit I throw in front of it every single day to get anything done.

I know I need to take care of myself. I need to exercise. I need to eat better. I need to be more active. And sometimes I push myself to do that but how do I get back to where it's a habit and not a chore.

I have a goal and not an easy one. Well it actually combines multiple goals.

Next year for DragonCon, I want to cosplay as a Fem 50's Riddler. My idea is a purple pencil skirt with 2 embroidered question marks at the base. Sunglasses with purple rims for the mask. My hair tied up in a green question mark bandana. I'll have the question mark cane and I'm still deciding on the top.

So here's the rub, as the saying goes, pencil skirts are not flattering on someone my size. Plus because of my color choices, I make have to make my outfit, which means I'll be teaching myself to sew.

I need to get back in the habit because my goal is to be 180 pounds by next July (smaller would be nice but I'll say 180). That means I need to lose 60 lbs in 10 months. 6 pounds a month on average, which is totally doable but right now, I just don't know how to do it.

But I've got to figure it out.

And I will.
