After three years of spending the whole day sitting and eating, I’m back at the gym since yesterday, and I plan on going 5 days a week for a while, lest I have a heart attack.
I’ve thought of doing a diary-like thread to give myself some sort of responsibility tied to exercising, and maybe getting someone else in the mood for joining me.
I’ll post a thread a week, and you can “check-in” with whether or not you did any exercise today.
as much as I hate reddit, I do have to credit the /r/stopdrinking subreddit with REALLY helping me quit drinking… just saying things out loud and keeping track of how many days i’d gone without, and also reading stories of other folks who were struggling or had done it, truly did help me quit once and for all. There is definitely something to what you’re doing here… publicly announcing your intentions and holding yourself accountable. I think you’re doing a good thing!
