It's no secret that ... nope, not gonna start a sentence like that.

I try to eat healthy, really I do, but when I'm faced with not having a lot of money and needing a little more food than average I tend to buy things that are just well BAD...

if its cheap burgers or pies or something I tend to EAT IT, FELL BAD ABOUT IT, THEN FEEL SICK... and that's the worst part... I love eating good healthy food but there are times that I slip and well ... I've been slipping BIG TIME.

Coming from a person who use to eat mostly salad and chicken, drink large amounts of water and go to the gym 5 times a week to now...... where I eat badly, drink a little water, sit most of the day because now I have a job.... and go to the gym (this is the sad part) ONCE FOR THE WEEK)

Now puppies aside I know this is kinda depressing but it's going somewhere, You see it was a great chance for me to test a couple things... and so I did.

I Tested both types of living with my mental health in mind. Now I would like to say that \All these "tests" were done by me and are my experiences I do not claim to be any kind of doctor and I'm not telling anyone else to do this/

I would go to the gym 5 times a week and be eating healthily, I'm talking protein shakes , fruit smoothies, vegetables being 3/4ths of my meal the whole thing. Now my depression or my Feeling of depression was very low to almost nonexistent because while in the gym , I didn't have a job I may not have had money but I had friends gym partners and felt I was connected to something.

Like this guy trying to get them gains.

But currently, I am getting back into the swing of things, moving back into a 5-day gym routine. and I say getting back because for a while I was going to the gym one a week had a job for three days a week along with going to class... it was a bit too much and still is but after 3 months I've  gotten accustomed to it but for a long time I was more depressed than before, being without that gym connection of friends, that movement and exercise made me a little bit more depressed along with work and school ... it was a lot to take in.

After some time tho I get use to whats going on even if it constantly I had a handle on it and I could take time off and get to relax for periods of time that I would have been stressing over everything.

So currently it's about finding balance for me, it's about making time to do what needs to be done getting it done and moving on to the next thing, it's about getting enough sleep, going to the gym, going to class going to work then going home getting school work done and going back to sleep, there will be small recreations there will be things you can do on the weekend but BALANCE.

Peace
