I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps.
I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting back.
Walking greatly improves my mental health too. I'm feeling less irritable and depressed after walking.
I want this to be a support thread for people who exercise and eat healthy so if you do any of that post here!

I haven't been into exercise too much lately, or healthy eating since I'm currently in-between jobs at the moment, but except for right now (when I probably need it the most, I know), I usually have "green" smoothies twice a day and a regular meal. I have a sweet tooth too, a bad one! I know when I started my smoothies, they seemed to help curb the sweet tooth. I don't make regular green smoothies though. I use Soy, Coconut or Almond milk, greens of some kind, and berries/fruits all mixed together. My son who's 13 has now become "addicted" to our smoothies. There's no recipe, we just take what's in the fridge/freezer, throw it in and mix it up. I've had more servings of fruits/veggies in the past 6 month than I've probably had in the past 2+ years.

I tend to eat a lot of sweets but also healthy food. I was depressed yesterday and didn't walk but walked 2 miles in the rain today.

I walked 2 miles in the rain again. At least it's good for fighting the fires in the midwest.

Here is my new brother, copper :) He's so tiny! Moo and Tuck were ok with him on first meeting. Rocket due to his severe aggression will never meet Cooper.
