of the exercise program you have
well um i have a a a former exercise program i'm a graduate student and this semester i'll tell you what i it's been almost impossible for me to get you know back to regular exercise
right
um last summer i was a a swim instructor all all summer and and lifeguard so it was really easy for me to get quite a bit of exercise swimming and
um and since i worked at a recreation center i could uh you know use those facilities quite often but
um
well swimming is uh one of the best exercises you can do
oh yeah oh yeah
i mean as far as for uh cardiovascular and
uh-huh and there's and there's no jarring movements
and it's least least least hard on your body i
pardon
it's the least hard on your body as far as uh impact and
exactly yeah um fluid yeah fluid resistance
right right
um-hum how about you
well i do uh
a little aerobics oh three or four times a week but it's not enough to
boy if i go the summer time i try to job jog a couple of miles and uh
oh yeah
i end you know even doing that three or four times a week
when summer hits that's a hard thing to go out and
yeah
and go jogging for uh
um-hum
half hour or so but so i'm not quite getting the level that i need to
um-hum
yeah
do you do you kind of think it's a chore or do you enjoy it
i like it
um-hum
i like it uh
part of my problem is i have small children so
oh to do a whole lot it just requires a lot of
oh coordination as far as scheduling and
um-hum
sure
yeah
that type of uh deal you know uh
when you're in college boy you get a hundred things going on course you're got a little different direction going but uh
uh-huh yeah uh i um i used to uh i i used to weigh uh two hundred fifteen pounds and now i only weigh about one about one seventy five
um so i drastically had to change the way i ate uh when i when i first moved to college and uh i i had started weight lifting quite regularly and
so i got my weight down and it's kind of easy for me to to forget about it now because uh you know when i'm not fat like i used to be uh you know i just don't worry about it you know
right you don't notice as much yeah
um-hum although lately i have noticed you know even if i gain like two pounds i start i start feeling it and
you feel it don't you it's amazing how uh
um-hum
how much uh it changes and i weigh probably about the same i've weighed for
oh i don't know how many years but uh it's changed places and things don't fit just quite exactly
yeah
fit the same
uh-huh
but uh so do you do a uh
in Texas uh
there's a probably quite a few few facilities
yeah there are um i'm living in a dorm right now and so right downstairs there's a facility and i really feel kind of guilty for not working out more than i do because there's a facility right downstairs where all you know all we have to do is
is uh run down there and
do you enjoy it or is it uh
i really do if i have the time to
if you can have find the time it's just the
um-hum yeah i really do because i like to get you know get off alone and just do that for a while but that's hard you know
yeah it is hard it is hard it's uh like anything else whether or not you wanna sacrifice another half hour my problem is i don't wanna wake up another half hour earlier
um-hum
um-hum
exactly
and do more don't get enough sleep as it is right
um-hum
uh-huh yeah yeah
and uh kind of have if you're having the pressures of school and uh everything else it's kind of course it's really you know as soon as you do it it's really a release
oh yeah
you feel invigorated and you feel
um-hum
oh you feel so in a lot better shape just like eating right foods
yeah ready to go another twelve hours yeah
if i eat too very much sugar boy it just does something
yeah
um-hum do you have to watch what you eat pretty regularly um-hum
i do i have to be real careful
um-hum i stopped eating meat about oh uh
must have been eight months ago uh-huh completely i mean any kind of meat or
did you
and i and i really feel a lot better now you that really does
makes a lot of difference well there's a lot of fat in meat
um-hum yeah that's it i mean that's about where almost all of the fat comes from
and and so i found that really helps
right
and unless you really like uh fish
fish is pretty good for you but uh
yeah i eat that i think i've eaten fish like twice since i used to eat a lot of fish too but i just tried to cut it all out for a while and see what happened
kind of see what happens i i've tried to do that with sugar and it
yeah and i like it and i
i i don't know if i'm that brave yet
it's almost impossible everything has sugar in it
i mean if you go your ketchup has sugar in it
uh-huh uh-huh
course and i like sugar too that's
um-hum
that's uh a problem but
anyway well it's uh nice talking to you think we've uh covered all the subject
okay yeah it sounds good
okay
well good luck to you there in Idaho
well you too good luck uh enjoy college while you can let me tell you it's uh
well i'm in graduate school now i i i kind of feel like i wish i could've gone back to undergraduate now yeah
it's a little different uh challenge isn't it
yeah it is well it's good talking pardon i'm studying speech pathology i
where are you going studying
right
