I'm a planner, I need to have a course of action for all this fun stuff.
I need to come up with a plan for getting my butt into shape.
Some universal truths:
1 - I hate getting up early, but do it on a daily basis
2 - I hate exercising after work more than I hate getting up early
3 - I love food, and refuse to give up enjoying good food
4 - I won't give up enjoying happy hour with my girlfriends or having dessert
5 - I have (reluctanctly) accepted that I will most likely be miserable for the majority of this process, and must find a way to not let it affect my attitude towards my boyfriend, friends, coworkers, and random strangers that are unlucky enough to cross my path before the caffeine kicks in.
