#DDPaDay Day 2/31

• Oct 2nd #DDPaDay day 2/31:
  
  As noted yesterday, there won’t be much to these blogs…at least not much planned and they are just as much for me as they are for my dozen followers. One thing DDP—and a lot of other motivational speakers say to be honest—is that if you write your goal down, you are a lot more likely to achieve it. There’s something about writing it down that makes you concentrate and focus on what you want to do. With food it’s especially true for me because by years of bad habits, I “forget” what I’m trying to accomplish. This and the breathing techniques that DDP teaches are what I think separates his program from a lot of the other ones I’ve tried.

  I really don’t like keeping a food diary as such, I find it too tedious, but I do want to list any questionable activities I engage in. For day one I didn’t eat or drink any of the no-nos, but I did eat too many mixed nuts while watching movies.
  
  October 2 workouts:
  
  Wake Up
  Sweating and Swearing—this was a recent live YouTube event that was like an hour long. Good stuff. Probably more intense than what I’m ready for, but I did it anyway.
  
  Diet:
  
  The day is far from over, but if there are any more goofs, I’ll talk about them tomorrow. Today my wife put cheese in my omelette—just from habit. I’m not the annoying type to say no or to eat around the cheese, so I ate it. On the plus side, it wasn’t very much and I could get away with it if I wasn’t experimenting with eating no dairy this month.
  
  While on that subject and in closing, I’m not going to turn down anything that may be offered to me throughout the month. One piece of candy or cake doesn’t hurt anything. I won’t be buying anything like that for myself though.
