I undoubtedly wasn’t so sure that I could go a week without a beer. That’s sort of where I came to before I made some giant changes in the way I live our life. I entirely thought that if I had to go a full month without a beer, I’d do not like life. But as with all change, while it can be strenuous and a challenge, the results are often quite unexpectedly positive. That’s for sure the case as I no longer spend all afternoon sitting in some sort of a/c. Seriously, I went from sitting all afternoon inside the zone controlled HVAC of our office to sitting all evening inside our own a/c. That’s the undoubtedly definition of a sedentary life. As far as exercise, there was just zero amounts of that. Instead, it was eating an all processed foods diet and drinking far too much. Food and drink were reward not fuel for our body. That had to change as I was getting to an age where if I didn’t do something about it, I never would. Or I might just keel over dead as well. That happens to big, fat guys in their 50’s all the time. So I got real about it by starting with going outside of the a/c for a walk everyday. From there it progressed to more structured exercise and a pressing diet change. Additionally, I had the HVAC professionals install a whole condo air purification component inside the HVAC equipment. Now I have the best air quality to add to all the other enjoyable things I’m doing for myself. And by the way, I haven’t had a beer in more than a year.
