I'm sick of seeing pictures of myself looking much pudgier than my mental self-image. I think it's time I finally take some major steps to fix that.
I figure by publicly posting these, it should help me hold to them better:
1) Fast food: no burger/fries type fast food for a month. Exceptions include casual dates, travel, and when I've been out working all day like when I help my parents with projects on the weekends.
2) Exercise: 90 minutes a week minimum. Mostly I plan to get walking on the treadmill. I'll count half of any time I spend working on my house.
3) I'm only holding myself firmly to this for a month, but if I get in the swing of it, plan to continue through the summer.

Good work on the public posting of the goals. If you want any feedback other than that let me know, otherwise I'll keep my mouth shut. :)
I know there's a lot more than this I can do, but my thinking is that if I try too much at once, It'll be hard and I'll give up quickly. We'll start with these couple of habits and move from there.
Jims feedback: ride a bike.
Trust me its his feedback for everything. I asked him what he thought about high yield bonds the other day and he told me to ride a bike.
Jer, I'm looking at doing the same things, but found this article http://well.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/06/24/can-you-get-fit-in-six-minutes-a-week/
and decided, "what can it hurt?" to try and see if I could help jump start things without tons of time needed. Thought you might be interested in reading.
Today I had taken a bag of potato chips out of my cabinet to eat when I saw the slogan "You can't have just one!" plastered on the side of it. I then became determined to prove it wrong. After my first chip, I continued. Potato chip bag: 1. Me: 0.
