Seven Days, Seven Posts

Well it's been seven days and I've made seven posts. I guess I'm on my way to making this blogging thing a habit. I've also been walking everyday so hopefully that is going to become a habit too. I still haven't weighed myself again, I'm going to hold off until Saturday as that will be seven days since I last did and it will be like the Biggest Loser weekly weigh in or something, although I won't drag out standing on a set of scales into an hour long blog or anything.
I haven't told my wife about the blog yet and I want to hold off as she'll want to read it. It kind of helps that I feel that I'm writing this for myself and I like the thought of the anonymous people on the internet who may find this blog and decide that they want to read about my adventures in bettering myself. If I'm typing away on the keyboard I always have an ear out in case someone is coming to see what I'm up to. I don't want to have to explain it to my kids just yet and my wife would always want to know if and what I was writing about her.
I've avoided most of the bad food in the pantry at home and haven't had a beer since Saturday night, but I'll probably have a couple tomorrow night. I've also been having wraps and sandwiches instead of hot food for lunch at work. My water intake is getting better too but still needs improvement.
I need to talk to my wife some more about getting a camera and what my plans are. I don't want to scare her and make her think I'm wanting to run off camping every weekend or that I'm not going to have time to help around the house. I need to make sure that she realises that although I need a hobby to occupy my mind, I also want to try and have a serious go at making us some extra money whilst I'm at it.
I've been doing more research and I think that using Patreon may also help. I could still release videos on YouTube but put the raw 360 footage up on Patreon for a small subscription fee or something. So many ideas, but it does feel good to be writing them down instead of just thinking about them.
I'm not sure if I'll continue to post each day but for now I think I'll try to keep it up, that may change when I actually get out camping or have video to edit in my spare time. I also don't know if I'll have enough to talk about each day as more and more of my ideas are getting written down and hopefully things will start coming together.
