So as the diet is nearing completion I've started to wonder what I should do next. In May I'm going on a vacation, so at least during that period I'm likely to not worry too much about eating right. I will be trying to run a bit because the half-marathon is going to be a couple weeks later, but even there I'm going to be trying to have fun while running rather than doing it for exercise.
Other than that trip though the point is rapidly approaching where I need to determine what long term goal I hope to achieve. I would not be surprised to discover that I'm going to end up losing 50 pounds during the Challenge. Five months ago just achieving that would have been an end in and of itself. Instead I can now see even more possibilities ahead. In terms of weight, I'm at a point that I likely haven't hit since at least leaving UPS and possibly even before that. In terms of aerobic activity it's very possible that I'm in the best shape of my life...which is just sad, but still an accomplishment.
So at some point soon I need to decide what's next. Any suggestions?
