I don’t understand why people always draw apples with like, beads of water rolling down on them.
Like all wet and stuff, and they’re on teachers walls and it’s weird.
I feel like it’s almost sensual. Like someone thought it’d be funny to slap a few sweat beads on an apple, like some creepy apple porn
Like ooooh yeah hot and heavy apple oh yeah look at leaf
HAHAHA I was searching for apple pictures but this is so much better
also the tags are not mine
The Five Steps to a Healthier August
once upon a time, I decided it was time to make Good Habits™, because I am 22 and if I don’t start now, I’ll never actually do it.
2. Maybe its because I’m a wimp and haven’t done the walk in a while, but you should come walk with me sometime to Trader Joe’s/Cafe Fiore. From home it’s an ASS KICKING walk. 🙂
4. Yeeeeep. I hear you there. Especially the consistently eating thing…I try to keep trail mix with me so I can have a snack if I get hungry. If I don’t have (healthy) snacks during the day then by dinner time I am a starving crazy person who will eat ANYTHING. I’m also trying to stop snacking after dinner and eating it before 6….or if I have to snack, try to drink tea, drink milk or eat a little fruit or veggies.
5. Dude I just bought these vites that are Women’s Petites, they are a bit bigger than an Advil—take two and you are good to go. Pretty awesome, I got them because I’m deficient in vitamin D, and they satisfy an entire day’s requirement.
2. I’ve done that walk quite a bit in the past! just not recently (because now I pretty much live in a four-car apartment, hahaha). I could totes be down with that.
4. healthy snacks are hard for me to keep around. generally I like fruits and vegetables for said snacks, but then at the grocery store I’m like “WHERE’M I GONNA STORE THIS J/K I LIKE THESE CRACKERS” so I don’t even buy them.
5. hmmmm. are they aspensive?
one of the stars of my sitcom
isn’t she pressssssshhhhh. and fantastically smart and talented. I’m really excited to actually get to work with her (she was going to be a star of my zombie show, but when that fell through, we found out just how much she and her mom want to work with me. faaaantastic).
trust me, she’ll be famous one day, and I’ll get to say she started with me.

Ha yes! I need to start doing the water thing, I don’t drink nearly enough. I just signed up at a rock climbing gym, to do the physical shit, bike to and from work, and just ordered a pull-up/sit-up bar. And I try to eat vaguely healthy things…
rock climbing! awww, I used to do that. also, not for nothing, but multi-vitamins really are the shit. and apple season is nearly upon us, and it will be nice and cheap to eat fruit every day…

SO. here’s what I’ve begun to do:
1. Drink More Water. more specifically, I consume about 64 oz of water a day. my handy dandy Starbucks water bottle (courtesy of Boyfriend) is 16 oz, so I just drink three of those during the day at work and then consume some water through the night (I know I drink at least 16 oz if not more). this has helped a lot, actually – I’m much more alert than I used to be, and I think during the winter, it’ll be easier to drag my lazy ass out of bed.
2. Do Physical Shit. yup, I’ve put myself on an exercise plan. it’s super easy and light, because I’ve maintained my body weight at a healthy level for five years without doing anything special, but it still gets me moving. that means that some days I come home from work and bike and do pushups/pullups, while other days I go for a 30-minute run. let me tell you, running is death. I’m glad I’m starting now before the air gets waaaay too cold to start this habit.
3. Go Bananas. I Mean, Eat More Fruit. (OH GOD NO BAD PUNS) I’ve rarely gotten enough fruit in my diet, which is a Porcelain Throne Problem, if you know what I’m sayin’. I’m now trying to eat fruit with either breakfast or lunch, if not both, and get in juice when I’ve got time in the mornings to stop by 7-11. (expensive, I know.)
4. Portion Control. this is the WORST. even worse than running. I’m used to being able to nom however much of whatever I want, when I make it or when it’s set in front of me, but recently I’ve determined that those 4-5 pounds I gained are probably the result of…ummmmm, we’ll call it “eating while hyper-aware.” ahem. but yeah. I’m actually watching my calorie intake, though certainly not obsessively, and trying to eat consistently. that was another problem – I’d not consume enough calories during the week, and then sit around and nom on the weekends. whoops.
5. Muuuultivitamin. you know how they call big pills “horse pills”? well. my multi-vitamin pill is more like an elephant pill. it’s huge and gross and heavy, and I’m sure it contains more than I need, but it sure beats having to nibble my way through a 30-supplement collection in the morning. I take one of these and a lysine and call it good.
UGH BEING ADULT SUCKS. you actually have to take care of your own shit.
