What are you planning to do with the degree? IT is my trade but not as a developer. I just fix the computers and maintain the server infrastructure.

Yeah absolutely. I think it's just human nature to focus so wholly on the goal, that we disregard the journey. Diets can be extremely challenging because you can't just quit cold turkey. It's a journey of learning new eating habits and shopping habits, learning to cook better, understanding ingredients and how nutrition effects your body.
I'm really good about exercising and working out. Starting to get kinda jacked again even. But my diet has just never been there. I eat more junk food than I should, but I also eat a lot of healthy stuff. Not a picky eater at all. I just really like cheetos lol.
I did have a six pack at one point, I was quite happy with my body. But it just wasn't sustainable because I like cheeseburgers too much. I had to find the balance of looking how I want, having a positive opinion of my self, and enjoying the food that I like without over eating, but not cutting out those easy serotonin booster snacks. I envy those that can do it without having to put that much thought into it.
I'm 6"2' and about 220 now, slowly working my gut down and pretty happy with myself overall, but I did consume a lot of doritos about an hour ago. Oh well, I'll go the gym tomorrow morning and try to stay on track after.
Good luck on your journey!
I tried to learn python once. I followed the book and made a script that would tell you if the minute was odd or even. "This minute seems a little odd". It was fun, but way beyond my ADHD brain's focus constraints.
I do IT for a living and I know that's where all the money is, but I would never be successful. Hope it works out for you!
You'll have to forgive a lot of my ignorance around this topic, but I hope it all goes well for you and you find your happiness at the end of that road.
I think and ideal world would be like a video game character creation menu that you could just access and make changes at will. But I guess that would also take the fun out of the randomness of life. Good luck on your journey!
What kind of things are you interested in?
Hell yeah! Stick with it, it gets easier as it becomes more routine. And don't get disheartened if you slip, just keep on truckin.
One of the things that helped me in the past was telling myself that the junk foods will still be there when I reach my goals. I don't need to eat them now just because they are there.
That's awesome! Any fancy plan for the proposal?
