I had a vague thought today. I thought of years past when my life was more structured and 'point-blank.' Granted, my life has always been a basquet case of sorts, but at one point in time, when i was about 18, I feel like despite my ED, drug addiction and black hole depression....something was diffrent; better. Then I remember a favorite task I used to do that kept my grounded through all the crap. Lists. Making Lists. Everyday for everything. I stuck to my lists. I accomplished things. I FELT accomplished. An OCD task? Yes. But did it work? YES. Today I have decided to me a 'Must Do' List for myself. This will be a list of activities that I need to complete everyday, thus giving me back a small speck of structure and POSSIBLY, hopefully, keeping my on my diet track and getting my fat ass to loose a few pounds. Here goes...
1. Excercise for at least 30 minutes
2. Stay below 200 calories
3. Read for a least an hour from a book of choice
4. Clean Something, Anything in apartment
5. Blog
6. Check and Respond to Emails
7. Give a Compliment to Someone
8. Check in with Buddies
9. Write a Letter to Ryan
10. Pick Out Clothes for Following Day
I'll Stop here. After I keep this going for a while, I will add more.
Well I'm off to start tasking. I'll let you know how it goes tomorrow.
