This week on my blog I am going to talk about how I am trying to stay in shape during my first year of college and not gain the freshmen 15. It is super hard when you go to the cafe twice a day and they have the same things to offer everyday like pizza, hamburger or cheeseburgers, grilled cheese, pasta and more. Especially if you are a picky eater like me your choices are even more limited. It does help that Western is a bunch of hills and just to get to my dorm in Valley 1 I have to walk up a hill and then 4 flights of stairs. My roommate and I try to go to the gym everyday or every other day to stay in shape. Sometimes it is scary when all the guys are lifting weights and you don't really know how to work the machines. Also walking to every class helps too. I try to switch up my food everyday but I don't think eating pizza 3 times a week is good for you. I guess I just need to try new things and quit being so picky if I want to stay healthy. Also I tried the Zumba class at the rec the other day and it was really fun! Also it's free as a freshmen to go to the classes so that is another way I am going to stay in shape. Next I really want to try to go to a yoga class if I can find time. My favorite time to go is the 8:45 class. Going to the gym with your friends I also think helps you because they can hep push you!
