Redirection




you get a redirection, you get a redirection everyone gets ...
At this moment I feel stuck. Stuck in this stage of my weight loss. I haven't been gaining or losing any weight. I was so worried about it even to the point that I begin to get discouraged. I was at a point where I thought this was it. Then I remember that every relationship needs constant redirection. Redirection doesn't mean starting over. Redirection doesn't mean that you have stopped, given up, or done something wrong. Redirection simply means you may need to do some readjusting. Often we stick to the same workouts and our body gets used to it. With workouts especially you must constantly evolve and do new things to challenge yourself. Once you do the same things over and over again it becomes easier and you now can do it like its nothing without sweating. With workouts, you always want to constantly challenge yourself. My redirection will consist of me going back to take a look at what I was doing then when I was losing weight compared to now.

When I initially started my journey it was during my undergraduate career. In college, you are so busy like I felt like all I did was run all day. I didn't have a car so I would walk consistently or ride my bike. On top of that, I would go to the gym and I also had alarms to eat. I learned that my body won't lose weight if I don't eat; I lost weight when I ate the most. I know it sounds weird, but eating the most doesn't mean I ate a huge amount of calories. I had three meals and two snacks. I had to set alarms because it was so easy to forget to eat. I rarely ate after 8 pm.

Compared to now after school, my schedule for sleep and eating is all off-kilter. I miss meals sometimes if I don't wake up on time then I try not to eat after 8 pm. I work all day mostly then come home so in summary, I am less active now although I do exercise. My eating schedule and sleep schedule is off. My next steps are to aim to get adequate rest, readjust my eating and working out schedule. I know during life changes you may have to readjust just like me at this moment and that is okay. Just don't give up and remember that this is just apart of the journey. Like I always say it all starts with you.

The Ultimate Green Smoothie

Yes Yes, I know another smoothie in a mason jar. You will come to learn if you do not already know that I love smoothies and I love mason jars. They are both so convenient. This recipe is filled with vegetables and a little fruit. If you do not like vegetables unlike me this may not be the recipe for you or you can simply add more of the fruit and less of the vegetables. I also incorporated vanilla whey protein in this recipe so it can be used as a meal substitute for a busy morning or afternoon. I did try the chocolate whey protein and did not like it at all. In the previous smoothie recipe, I talked about incorporating flax seeds and why they are beneficial. I have added a picture of the flax seeds that I use below. Materials Measuring Cups Spinach Avocados Kale Whey Protein Flax seeds Almond Milk Berry Mix Recipe(1 or 2 Servings)  1/2 cup of spinach 1/2 of a avocado 1/2 cup of kale 1/4 cup of berries 1 scoop of whey protein 1 Tbsp of ground flax seeds 1 ...

CHOOSE PT

MOVEMENT IS MEDICINE When I was a kid I knew of different career, but I had never knew anything about physical therapy. I knew about doctors, nurses, lawyers, fashion designers, and teachers. Due to these things I was presented with or knew about I literally wanted to be all of these things besides a teacher. When I realized these weren't the careers for me, I had to begin exploring other things on my own. During this time I got the chance to watch my family members with physical therapists and it was intriguing to me. It wasn't until the summer before 9th grade that I knew that it was for me. I volunteered at a veterans affair hospital and I worked with a Physical Therapist there and I fell in love. Through years now that I have learned even more about it was confirmation that this is what I want as a career.  Two Favorite Things About PT In physical therapy your number one goal is to do what best for the client and getting them back to their life as best as you can.
