Self-Improvement

I started my long-procrastinated self improvement as of this week. I finally went to the dermatologist, and she prescribed me Retin A Micro at .1%, a 4% hydroquinon cream and BenzaClin (a 5% benzoyl peroxide gel with an added topical antibiotic). Three days later I am already peeling. My forehead broke out a little, also. I am looking forward to the results. She also prescribed me something for my eczema, including this great moisturizer and it looks tons better already.

I also plan to start working out. It has been suggested to me to spend 30 minutes on the bike per day. I'll try to do that. I'm also going to buy batteries so I can start back on my elliptical. I'll say I'll do the 300 calorie workout every day for now. We'll see... Maybe I can do the bike in the morning and the elliptical in the evenings. I don't know how much I can trust myself to do that, but regardless, I plan on getting a physical evaluation soon so I can develop a real workout plan.

What I think I may do is do the bike and elliptical for the rest of the month and start tracking my food in hopes I can reduce my weight by about 5 - 10 pounds. At that point, I'll start weight training.

I WILL be fine as hell by December.
