Goal: Exercise Regularly

If I want to be someone like I talked about in my last post, someone who doesn't obsess over food and how much of it she's eating, then I need to exercise regularly. I need to burn some calories in order to keep a balance going on. I can eat normally and not have to worry about it. In addition, we all know exercise is good for us. And I do feel better when I exercise.

I also have some guidelines when it comes to exercising. I don't want to spend my life in a gym or training for marathons or anything of that nature. I just want to be fit an healthy. So my guideline is at least one half-hour run a day. It's short but good. I usually get more than that but there are days it's all I can fit in. I'm lucky enough to have a job that allows me to take an hour out of my work day for fitness. I try to fit my run and some weights into a workout.

I also have a long term goal when it comes to exercising: I want to be fit when I'm old. I see some people when they're old, they've gained weight, they can't move fast or need a walker. I want to keep up a level of fitness that will move me away from that. I know, I'm only 24, chill out. But that's the time when you have to think about these things. The same as if you are saving for retirement.

So keep fit and have fun!
