How it was.... how it is going to be

I started thinking what could be changed in my daily routine that could help me with my weight. I guess my major problem would be lack of physical activities, i.e. sports... I do an office job which basically means 9 hours of just simply sitting in front on PC. I do not smoke, so I get only a short lunch break, which also means digging into very unhealthy food. I usually eat out, and the nearest place for me is pizza place, so you can easily add it all together and figure out what I eat. Even if it was 10 minute walk to the pizza place, I usually drive... so that's another negative thing. At work to clear my head I drink coffee....lots of coffee.... 5 to 7 cups a day. Naturally, coffee comes with sugar and cream, so that's a HUGE portion of calories that can be reduced. Now I get a better picture where do these 105 kgs come from....
Some physical activities would be exactly what I need, but I hate working out. I hate weight lifting, and I can't really do it because of my injured back. I also hate all the aerobics and other crap, as I cannot stand looking at myself in the mirror next to all these super model looking girls... I hate yoga, it's too slow for me... I need some action.... jogging maybe? But I would run out of breath in 5 mins... I will have to think it all over about the sports thing...
So for a start my plan is:
  • skip coffee breaks - drink water instead;
  • substitute sugar with honey;
  • drink at least two liters of water per day;
  • use shorts breaks to talk to the colleagues (that would mean climbing the stairs to the second floor);
  • bring lunch from home (something healthy);
Is there anything else to add? I guess I will have to get back to this list sometime soon... till then....

Cheers!
