My biggest challenges in exercising daily and eating a healthy diet is time. I am a full time student and I also work long hours daily. It is difficult for me to make time to exercise , cook a healthy meal and do my school assignments daily when I get home from work at 7:30 pm everyday. I try to make time for these things, but many days I am exhausted and more worried about doing my assignments then exercising. I know that I need to exercise and eat healthy, but I have a hard time using the little time I have wisely. I have wanted to join a gym, but that is difficult also because again I have a hard time making time to go as well as paying for the expensive cost. I could at least do better at eating more healthy because I can take a healthy lunch and come home and cook a healthier dinner while doing my assignments. Even though I have more time to eat healthier, I feel like many of the healthier foods are more expensive.
In five years, I can definitely see myself living a healthier lifestyle. I believe that it will be easier and more affordable for me to join a gym. I feel that I will need to be in better shape because I will need to be fit and healthy for my future in nursing. I am going to need to be energized and strong so that I can give the best care to my patients without tiring out too fast. I really believe time will always be an issue with my future in nursing,but I feel that it will definitely be easier than it is now!!!!

I can definitely understand your lack of time and money. However, please remember that many places have recreation centers that are equipped with weight rooms and activities for a low yearly fee. In Carrollton, the recreation center has two gyms, a full sized basketball and volleyball court, weight and fitness rooms, game rooms, and four racquetball courts. Membership is only $50 a year. Most fitness clubs charge at least that much for a month’s membership.
ReplyDeleteTime is also a concern for me. Working full time, taking classes and caring for children leaves precious little time. However, I have been trying to make better snack choices. For example, I snack on sunflower seed kernels and peanuts instead of something packed with sugar. Hopefully, I will start incorporating more exercise in my daily routine when this semester is over.

ReplyDeleteI agree with you because i am a full time student,i work fulltime and i just dont have time to exercise. After work i just want to sleep because i work nights and if am not sleeping am studying. Time is a big factor for me as well. I enrolled in a gym and it is so expensive plus i do not have time to go cause i am at work or in class. In the future i know that i would have been done with school and i would have time to rearrange my life and incorporate physical activities and healthy eating.
