1090 The Beginnings
I was reading Tony's post about his 90 day challenge and felt it was a good idea.

OK, you may be able to note a slight tone of unenthusiasm which is unlike me but I went on to read Ellie's reaction to Tony's post

and then

It was Ellie's post that spurred me on. She sounded enthusiastic and excited at the prospect and I caught the 'bug'.
The Prequel:
I've always been an embarrassingly healthy person. Although I have had some emotionally weak periods in my life, my physical being has been extremely fit, healthy and strong.
A few months ago I realised that something wasn't quite right and strolled off to the docs and sunk home again with a pile of blood tests, scans and x-ray appointments.
The long and the short of this story is I'm not a well person at the moment and have a painful body which quite frankly has been letting me down.
Now, that doesn't mean I'm really, really sick, well, not that anybody has let me know anyway, but it has had an effect on my outlook on life and I'm ashamed to say I've been a bit of a misery.
The Now:
Ellie's post had an effect that I wasn't expecting and I'm up for this challenge.
I'm so fed up with being down-hearted, sad and enthusiastic so from today, and for at least the next 90 days I'm changing my mindset.
Not a day will go by without a laugh or at least a smile I've written my targets for the next ten days. Some of these aren't necessarily business related but they are pertinent to me. So, here we go:
1. Get those fasting blood tests out of the way so I don't have to anticipate them.
2. Swim at least 7 of the next 10 days. Swimming is so good for my body but the getting to the pool takes a bit of effort!
3. Write about my progress for the next 10 days - 1 post a day for 10 days - I can hear you groaning already:)
4. Keep a food diary for the next 10 days. I should have been doing this but... This should show up some habits shouldn't it?
5. Post on my website everyday for the next ten days.
6. Complete the targets on Tony's 90 day challenge list for the next 10 days.
7. And, most important of all Not a day will go by without a laugh or at least a smile. Laughter is the best medicine after all:)
So, I want to thank Tony for the 90 day challenge idea and especially want to thank Ellie for her upbeat enthusiasm.
Any help will be gratefully received especially if it comes in the form of a laugh. And just to get the ball rolling, this made me laugh out loud.
