i'm falling apart, i'm barely breathing

the last few months i've been a bit of a mess, and sadly, i know it's not going to get better in the next 14 months. so i decided i need a true intervention, a life change. i need a routine. this routine will be rooted around sleeping hours of 11:30 to 5:30 and go from there. i've gained 10-15 lbs in the last year, and for the first time in my life, i don't feel good about my body. every single one of my health metrics are great, except my body fat percentage is at moderate risk. i need to get rid of this excess weight as soon as possible, and definitely before the spring. to establish a routine, it takes something like three months of commitment, so here are the things i'm committing to work on until i feel like i have some sense of normalcy back in my life. we'll see if this works. i hope so. i need it to.

work:
in by 8:30, leave by 6:30 (4-5 days per week)
be on time to meetings (90% of the time)
limit e-mails and multi-tasking (80% of the time)

school:
at least all homework for 1 class done on sundays (every week)

health:
bed by 11:30, up by 5:30 (every week day)
limit calories to 1500 (6-7 days per week)
lose 10-15 pounds (by april)
drink 1 liter of water (everyday)
floss (everyday)

exercise:
at least 30 min of running/biking (3x per week)
100 crunches, 100 jump ropes, 10 push-ups (2x per day)

so whoever may be reading this, if any of you actually know me or see me on a daily basis, hold me to this routine. make sure that i don't stray. i need your help.

on another note, to knock off two of the items on my 100 things to do before i die, i'm starting my "learn something new everyday" list (theyanger06daily.blogspot.com) and i'm committing to becoming a consciously safer driver since i'm buying a new car. between chicago and being late for everything, this will be tough, but it's important.
