Guest post written by my buddy Fidel Hernandez

I found some great Dish TV promotions a few months back and I got myself all the extra channels I’d been hearing about – now I can’t tear myself away from this darn TV! I knew there was a reason I hadn’t gotten cable before and it’s that I have a really addictive personality so now I spend hours and hours watching TV at my house. I love living alone and having the TV on makes it feel less like I’m by myself and more like I’m interacting so I guess it’s not that big of a deal.

I don’t know that you can call watching the boob tube a hobby though so I still need to make sure I’m getting outside and moving around more than I have been recently. I can tell a difference in the way my clothes fit because I’ve become more sedentary and that’s not what I’m going for. The fat, TV watching nurse isn’t what I want people around my neighborhood to start referring to me as!
