2. Change diet. Eat CLEAN. Only one bad meal per week.

STEP NINE
GET A SPONSOR

Natalie, Josh, Mom, Joshua, Kandice, and Josh have all offered to run with me.
I am going to ask the Bishop to help me track my progress. One meeting per month.
Every Saturday I am going to take my physical measurements, and record them on the calendar.
Every day I am going to keep a food and exercise journal, and review it at night.
I am going to track my scripture reading on the chart.
I am going to make a daily, weekly, and monthly checklist.
Kallee and Fred are competing with me against sweets until July.
I still need to find a sponsor though. Should I make Josh my sponsor?

STEP TEN
HELP SOMEONE ELSE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM

Any volunteers? Lol. I probably should not do it secretly because it wouldn't work very well. Plus, I would probably find a way to cheat. How do you confront someone without an AA meeting? Haha. Addicts Anonymous. Jk. Umm... I need someone that I can consult with constantly. I'll have to work on this one...


Alright, so it's not exactly 12 steps, but it's still a plan. I can do this. I will do this. I start today.
