Healthy Eating and Exercising

It is so easy to list off things that may prevent me from eating healthy and exercising but as I list things it becomes more obvious that there really is not anything preventing me form healthy eating and exercising but myself. I started off my list with things such as lack of time, exhaustion, convenience, laziness, and fatigue. Then I began to think about what I do when I actually do have time and it appears I may be making the wrong choices. Making good choices are sometimes easier said than done. I work two jobs (one of which is for LA County and the other in retail) and attend LASC full time as an online student. Without running down my whole schedule I will just say that I am a very busy person. My daily schedule does not even include day to day friends and family issues that may come up. When I am not working I am attempting to focus in school. With all this said I maintain I am the only thing preventing me from eating healthy and exercising. I say this because I am very on and off when it comes to eating healthy and exercising. I get in the mood where I am going to take charge of my life and health and begin to do all the right things like cooking at home and going to the gym and then I sink back into drive thru dining and succumb to my laziness. I found a gym five minutes from work to help me stay motivated but as soon as I get off job number one I speed home to plop down on the couch and enjoy some good junk food and watch my favorite reality shows (Real Housewives). I do a little homework then I’m off to sleep (only if I don’t get called into job number two).
