i'm back!

i haven't posted to this blog in like 4 months. i also haven't been taking great care of my health. i still walk all the time going to the store and the bus stops and at school, but a lot of times that is with a bag and although i am working up a sweat, i also may be hurting myself a bit even though i try to carry things in the best manner and switch sides and what not.

i try to stretch everyday and the days i do it first thing, i feel the best. the days i do it in the afternoon or evening is still positive, but usually it is after i feel a kink or something. i would like to wake up and stretch everyday. also, i used my exerbike for an hour yesterday and it felt great! i think i am going to use it tonight as well depending on my school work progress and how late it gets, my only goal is to use it regularly for at least a half hour.

my weight is still way too high but that isn't my big goal, being healthy is. i've been eating OK, but didn't have much money for food so wasn't eating the best or meals really. i just got approved for the Oregon Trail card which allows me to just get food on it from a special account, i plan on going to the store tomorrow. yesterday and today i ate breakfast and it does make a difference. the thing about my weight is that i really haven't lost my figure, i just have a huge gut, where you gain weight from stress because cortisol, a major stress hormone, stays there.

that's what's going on now. i plan to update this much more as being as healthy as i can be is very important to me!
