Let's Get Healthy!


First of all I deeply apologize for not posting for the last few weeks. I have been working on an upcoming play, and will explain the other part of it in the story below.


So I have been trying to live a healthier lifestyle, because it's about time for it to change. I will come home and sit down at my computer with a bowl of food and watch TV all day or just lie there thinking of how I have no self control.
I am tired of looking at myself and saying, "Today we will be healthy. But I will give that up once I see cookies." Then there will some how magically be cookies in my oven that night.




I want to stop being lazy and gain some control over myself. I would try to workout for a few minutes, then give up, because I didn't like the feeling. I needed some encouragement, and confidence that I can succeed with my plan of living a healthier lifestyle. So I went on YouTube, and found some videos that were just full of confidence, and had tips of how to get healthy.



I made a plan to exercise for at least 30 minutes a day, and try to eat as many fruits and vegetables as possible. Since my family does not want to try to be healthier with me, I am limited to my options of food, but I'm making it work.
 I am not trying to lose weight, but just maintain a healthy one. I'm at the suggested weight for my age and height, so I'm good.
Since I'm a mess with exercising, I have been doing workout plans/challenges. I'm starting a 30 day one on Monday, and I'm excited for that.

*TIPS/IDEAS*

  • Don't drink your calories
  • Try to get a 20+ minute workout in 4-5 times a week
  • Go jogging a few times a week!
  • Fruits and veggies over candy (it's a sacrifice we must be willing to make)
  • Drink lots of water!
  • Try whole wheat instead of white
  • Do some exercises while watching TV!
  • Put motivational quotes everywhere!
So maybe now you might consider trying to get a little healthier now. Hope you join me on my little fitness journey!
