Diet: 

The engine needs fuel, not HotPockets.  We've successfully transitioned the big guy to a semi balanced diet of chicken, brown rice, baby carrots, skim milk, beans, Triskets, Costco assorted frozen stir fry vegetables, bananas, and Gatorade.  Surely a drastic sea change from the previous Administration.  

Because of the high sodium and sugar content of the "thirst quencher", its been decreed that consumption of sports drinks be scaled back.  But hey everyone needs their "electrolytes".      

Exercise: 

For these first two weeks the goal has been to do 30 minutes of running straight.  Mission accomplished.  Now to move onto bigger and better things.    

Next up is to incorporate some core exercises.  Bring on the medicine ball.




Attitude:

Someone won't move for you while jogging on the sidewalk?... Run through them.  Fratboys yelling at you from their Jeep Cherokee as you struggle up a hill?... Chase after them.

Confidence, swagger, anger, whatever... use what you need to get through the wall.
