working out

Starting this semester, I have been on a health streak. I still mess up a lot and eat bad but for the most part it is like night and day. I joined the YMCA and starting working out almost every single night since I've joined. I just realised at semester that I needed to make a change. I had done it. I had gained the freshman fifteen. Before I had joined the YMCA, I just would drive all the way to my friends apartment across Springfield just to run on the treadmile or I would try to squeeze in a work out after my classes and before work. I would go to work sweaty and gross but I didn't care because I knew I was doing better for my body. Not only was I doing better by exercising but also my diet was much better. I no longer went out and drank every night. We didn't go to Cheddars every day of the week. Well, actually I havn't went out to eat at all this semester except for when my family comes to see me in Springfield. I quit eating junk like chocolate. I stopped getting fast food. The closest thing to fast food that I get is Subway and I get that on wheat bread with vegetables. I eat so much fiber. I did a cleanse which helped me a lot. After my cleanse, I started eatin the fiber. I buy fruits and vegetables every time that I work at MaMa Jean's. I don't drink any soday what so ever. I also don't drink the juices that are full of fructose corn syrup and what not. I have already lost six pounds. Six pounds has taken a while to come off but it is worth it to do it the healthy way. I start meeting with my personal trainer on Tuesday so that will be another step. I just want to look better for summer. I want to feel healthy. I want to keep this up and cut down a little less on the crap I eat. It's just hard to change my diet. The exercising isn't much of a problem.
