| Well the heart rate monitor will have to wait until at least August 1st when i get paid. I am a graduate student currently and we get paid enough to live on and if really frugal, enough to save a little each month. Next time I go on a jog I will try to slow down or maybe even just powerwalk. I already feel like I'm jogging too slow and that any slower might as well be walking.
The tips on foods is great. I feel like I need to take in more fiber. I guess my next step is to plan a healthy shopping list, luckily there is a good post on that in nutrition I can look at. |
