maniac Posted January 13, 2013 Posted January 13, 2013 Ok Guys, The Aging on ICF thread gave me this idea....You can wish to participate if you want. So let us make individual targets and track our progress on this thread. So Please feel free to use this thread to track progress of your goals... I mean it could be anything like.... Example 1;Quit smoking-tracking progress-Who knows you could find yourself a nice support group Example 2Completing education-Who knows with the amount of nerds here, you could find yourself some nice resources. I will be the first to start I want to run a Marathon,but with the current running shape I am in and also the Knee pain i suffered last year....there is no way possible for me to achieve this goal this year. So my realistic target is to build up my health for next Summer. I will start my Journal below
maniac Posted January 13, 2013 Author Posted January 13, 2013 I found an indoor track right next to my house and have started running Last week...Today for the first time I could continuously run for 1 mile but at a very slow pace...haven't timed myself yet...will start doing that
Magneto Posted January 13, 2013 Posted January 13, 2013 1) Quitting smoking should be easy. Make your smoking patterns haywire, never smoke after meals, find an alternative (chewing-gum types) and after a while your body may not demand nicotine anymore. From a packet a day I have gone down to a cigarette in a fortnight.

Was so hard for me to quit it in the first place...Looks easy now in when I look back..but to be honest was very difficult....never going back to it.. Glad you could kick the habit :two_thumbs_up:

From a packet a day I have gone down to a cigarette in a fortnight. :two_thumbs_up: I quit late last year around August. This happened after after pretty much waking up for months at end with a horrible cough and a headache, not to mention disturbed sleep because of my blocked nose.Just had to quit. Threw out my pack and then had my longest spell without a cig from Aug to Sept. Went home to Goa in Sept. Smoked up with mates. Left Goa first week of Oct. Haven't touched a cig since then. This was after a good 8-9 years of smoking. The thought of cigs simply disgusts me now. To make up for not smoking promised myself 1 trip to Amsterdam for a stoner vacation That said I was more of a social smoker and smoked at best 3 cigs or less on most days fr teh past 2-3 years. Prior to that was in college and God alone knows how much I damaged my system then. Resolutions for next few months, 1) More Sex 2) Run a mile between 5-6 mins 3) Get that six pack (really close) 4) Start Kitesurfing
