♪I think a change would do you good...♪
It's November already. Wow.
I've been thinking a lot today. Since I got to Calgary, it's been the worst I've taken care of myself in a long time. And while it's still my fault, it has to do with my work schedule, and the fact that I don't snack on healthy things all day anymore (like I have in previous work terms & at school) and since I get home at like 10 or 11 at night, I don't cook for myself. Sometimes, I eat leftovers (from when I am home & can cook) and other nights, I eat like crap.
I used to eat at least my 5 servings of fruits & veggies a day - usually like 8. But I'm lucky if I get 3 anymore :S The weird thing is that the one thing that I used to not get enough of is milk, and that I've drank a lot more this term.
I'm also not really exercising much. Other than walking around restaurants...lol. Which I hate, and I don't know how much I'd be able to change that. However, I can at least do situps & such, and on nice days, walk home from the Japanese restaurant.
However, for the rest of my time here, I'm going to try to change this. I bought some lettuce & dressing today, in hopes that if I'm hungry & need a snack, I'll eat salad. Or fruit. And I'm definitely not drinking my water like I used to. But this is all going to start to change. I'm not saying I'm giving up junk completely, but here's to eating the stuff I need! And exercising! :)
