It's been some time since I last posted anything, but I do still exist. Thriving and doing well, actually. I haven't written anything on here because I haven't felt like there has been anything to write. Well, that's not true entirely; I've just been pretty lazy. I haven't written anything on here, or in my diary, or anywhere else; and I'm starting to slack on my school work... It's the last leg of my senior year! It's hard to stay focused and care.
My workouts and exercise with Alexis is going well. We can both work longer periods without tiring than we could when we started, and it hurts less. I've actually used some weight machines, to help add a little muscle, or I think some might call, definition, right? Alexis and I both have more strength in our legs, though; our arms, hers more than mine, were pretty pathetic. Though I am bigger/fatter/whatever, and, as one would normally assume, should be more out of shape, I am able to persevere and stick with things a lot better than she.
One of the difficult problems we've been trying to solve is the problem of eating: Sometimes we can go workout immediately after school, but sometimes we both feel famished after not eating anything since lunch and therefore lacking energy. So, sometimes we eat before hand, but that can make us feel sluggish. If we're not hungry beforehand that is, of course, no problem: we either go out to eat together afterwards or go home to dinner. I think we need to work towards having a snack after school, so that we have energy to exercise, and then having dinner later. Lol, our problem is that both of us are the type of person that cannot easily settle for just a little snack. Oh well, we're starting to get things under control. However, as I might have said before, we're not dieting; so no limitations of food, or eating only special foods. As a result we are put into funny situations. We will just have finished working hard and sweating our asses off, but will soon afterwards find ourselves at Sonic eating a cheeseburger, mozzarella sticks, and a milkshake. Ha, I sit there silently laughing inside at how counter-productive it is to our exercise.
