I am a man of many phases. Every now and then I get the idea to do something new or to do something I know I should be doing. Sometimes these things stick, but it is usually a phase. My prior phase was eating whatever I want. That lasted for over a year and I am much bigger for it. Now I am on a new phase. Ever since I got the shizzle scared out of me by the gastro doc I've decided to be more healthy. So I decided I am going to do cardio for a half hour every day after work and start a new diet. I started back to the gym on Monday. I knew still paying for it was a good idea, even though it has been a year and a half since I have been there. When I walk in I got the feeling that eyes were on me. Maybe they could tell I was a newbie? Some girls were even giving me a once over. I did notice that I was wearing my "give blood" t-shirt I got for giving blood. It kinda looked like I was a doctor. I do know that chicks like doctors, maybe I should come in wearing scrubs and then when they ask me what I do I'll tell em I'm a software architect. That'll confuse em. Working out is not that bad. I even get to watch TV while I do it. All you do is go in, get dressed in the locker room and then go out and get on a treadmill. The whole process lasts 45 minutes. I do it before I arrive home from work. Then I go to Subway and get a sub for dinner. Yup, my new diet is the Subway diet. It is the easiest one for me. I even get some more cardio because I do a 10 minute walk to Subway at lunch. I am not going to refill my refrigerator at home so I will have no snacks to tempt me. It is pretty barren. I just have some OJ for breakfast and will get some bottled water for after the workout. I hope this health kick lasts long enough for me to lose some weight. My real goal is not to lose weight though. It is to get healthy, no gerd or high blood pressure. I can see me losing enough weight in a year that I can wear a Microsoft C# t-shirt and the girls will still swoon.

Austin: "Fat Bastard? But you're not fat anymore?"
Fat Bastard: "I went on the Subway diet. You know, just like Jared. I've lost 180 pounds."
Austin: "Congratulations, baby."
Fat Bastard: "Thank you. I do have a bit of excess skin though.Bit of a problem yeah. And unfortunately my neck does look like a vagina."
