The Food We Eat Does Makes a Differance
Ways To Solve This Problem
-to get outside. Get up and exercise, go for a walk, walk the dog, anything. Just get up and stay active. Another way to stay committed to this can be to make a schedule planning on what you'll be doing on different days
-try eating healthier. Like we said before, try a whole food diet, you don't know how good it can be if you don't try
-cut down the amount of time you spend watching TV for example. If you normally watch TV for 2 hours, try cutting it down to 2 shows per day so you don't spend as much time staring at a screen all day
-if you take the bus everyday, try walking to school or if you live farther away, ride your bike. This way you're not standing around waiting for the bus and then sitting down the whole ride there
