Lose weight (aka stop eating as much junk and actually exercise instead of staying inside my room all day when I have nowhere else to go and nothing else to do)

Keep myself healthy. My future self would thank me for it.

Work out. I've gotten heavier this year because I stopped going to the gym. I need to remember I can work out at home.
