I Want to Be Healthier
Wanting to take a change in life is not the same as doing.
For quite a while I've know I should be making a better attempt to exercise more often and cut down on sweets.
I do admit I have a sweet tooth, or rather sweet teeth. I have never really appreciated dental hygiene and it's costing me now. I have more cavities than I care to admit and I only just had my wisdom teeth out (mainly because they had cavities). I was worried I may have another cavity on the back molar so I went in for a checkup yesterday. Turns out that they can't see if there is or not because if there is, it would be below the gum line. If there really is one, then my back molar isn't salvageable and they would need to remove it and possibly replace with an implant.
Every time something like this happens, I get worried for the following couple days, but then eventually I forget or brush it off and I go back to my habits.
I really don't think I can afford to do that again, but I just know that it's probably gonna turn out that way.
I just don't know how to get myself into a regular routine that I can follow and continue to motivate myself to follow it.
Same thing applies to exercise. I just keep coming up with excuses to avoid it and I notice that I feel weak sometimes. When that happens I resolve to do something about it, but less than a couple minutes later I've already forgotten or brushed it off again.
It's frustrating that I can't even motivate myself to do simple things like this. I don't even know where to begin.
