I’m concerned about my health. I’m full of the flu, with the headaches, aching limbs, sore throat and the list goes on.
But the flu isn’t my main concern just now. What is my main concern is that I’ve fallen foul of the flu more times in the past two years than the preceeding twenty-seven I’ve had on this planet.
I know I’m not really looking after myself. I’m overweight, I don’t really eat all that healthily and I get next to no exercise. And I have to admit I’m starting to get a bit worried that whenever Ruth and I have children, that I won’t be around to see much of their growing up.
Maybe I’m looking too much into this but my priorities have to change. I’m a married man now and one day I’m going to be a father. I owe it to my future family to change my habits so that I don’t have to worry about checking out anytime soon.
Easier said than done. One of the barriers holding me back for the new slim BigAl is willpower. Or the alarming lack of it. I have to remind myself all the time that junk food (apart from being bad for me) just doesn’t taste all that good.
Still, I’ll have to start somewhere. So, for those of you who know me, when you see me about to tuck in to a can of fizzy, chocolate, fast food or anything else that just ain’t good, you’re going to have to stop me.
Good Luck.
BigAl
What is would you consider reasonable methods of stopping you eating and drinking crap? Shouting and screaming, thus causing much embarrassment in public eatieres? How about a big-ass mech that very much like ED-209 but not so much that we get sued? Everytime you pick up a burger it says, “Please put down the burger, you have 20 seconds to compy.” Failure to do so will result in vast amounts of lead being pumped into your body.
Man, now I’m gay for Robocop.
Not lead – lead is even heavier than fat. How about a specially adapted mech that forcibly sucks fat out of your body if you fail to comply?
Ah, now if it sucked the fat out my body I wouldn’t have to worry about dieting…
You know I feel like that sometimes………and when I do some exercise it helps……..but for the life of me even tho I know it will help can I motivate myself…………my wife swears by echinasia….she takes it everytime a bug comes on…….not sure about that but it might help .
