healthy? not me!
(random side note before I start... the more I distance myself from the drug subculture, the more I seem to learn about it...)So! 2 doctor visits later (than the last post), I don't have a sleep disorder but I probably have insomnia, and everything else is in order except I gained WAY too much weight over the summer (30 lbs... can ya tell? :S ) and now I have high blood pressure. But if I lose the weight I gained over the summer (and I need to lose like 2x that anyway), I can get the blood pressure under control. Yay me.
I talked to my mom about it and we agreed that I need to eat more vegetables. I drink lots of water, although I should be drinking more, and I don't eat much salt (I don't even use it as a condiment anymore... PEPPER all the way!) or drink much pop. Now that I've cut out some things, time to add some things... Or not! My mom suggested that I go on a whatever-kinda-healthy-salad-you-want for a month type of diet. She even said I could go to a restaurant and/or fast food place one day a week and order a salad from there to shake things up a bit. *shrug* Heck, I'll try anything twice... provided I'm willing to try it once.
So, after I go back to school on Tuesday and organize the fridge and freezer and see how much stuff I have left to eat that can't last a month (shouldn't be that much) and go to the grocery store, I'll start this diet thing for a month. Along with exercising a LOT more. It's recommended that people exercise 20 minutes 3 days a week, but I'd rather do 15 minutes 4 days a week. Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday sound like good days. Done! And I don't count DDR as exercise, unless I come home and put it on 'calorie count' mode, and even then I usually play 2 or 3 times a day for 10+ minutes at a time. :) Which reminds me, if my clothes are done being washed and dried, I'm going to change and play some DDR.
In conclusion, if anyone would like to give me any crazy, interesting, or bold salad-making tips or breakfast ideas that DON'T include salad, or even just berate me, drop a comment. And if you berate me, karma will come after you biyatch!
