As I complete the third and last session on Live Well. I’m currently in the ‘contemplation’ stage. Since the previous session I’ve incorporated more greens and fruits into my diet and I feel more energetic as a result. I’ve reduced caffeine intake and started taking a multivitamin for days I feel I do not have adequate nutrients in my food. Finals week is coming up and the juggling school and work has been hectic for me. I’ve been taking 30 minute breathers to reduce stress. After the semester is over I intend to look into fitness trackers so that I can start logging my steps and be more proactive about my health.

Before the semester started I decided that I wanted to become healthier. A part of me was scared because I had visited this avenue several times and always found myself reverting to my old ways. However, this time I wanted to be successful. When I started livewell I was so thrilled because I knew that this program was going to be the jumpstart to my lifestyle change. Not only has Livewell helped me to stay consistent with eating nutritional food that fuel my body but also I’ve found new ways to cope with stress and depression. I now go to the gym four times a week faithfully and the days that I am busy and will not be able to make it to the gym, I workout from home. My perspective has completely changed when it comes to eating healthy, exercising and dealing with stress. I now look forward to going to the gym and blowing off some steam. The way that I conduct myself and react to challenging situations has completely changed for the better.
