Detixifying program before start of university school year

Hello there, reader! As you probably figured out already from the About page, my name is Mich, and I’m 21 years old. I’m just an ordinary person, with hope that some day I will be a writer. Of course I know this isn’t an easy path but I will keep trying.

But for now, I’m going to write for fun and try to improve my skills as much as I can in as many subjects as I can. I’ll start with the beginning, and try to get my body in a more healthy state.

I have always been a little to relaxed about the well-being of my own body, and I want that to change. Time is passing by and it can’t be reversed for anyone or anything. So I want to feel better every day.

I’m starting with a kind of detoxifying cure. But mainly I am just going to change some things in my diet. And here are the things that with a little effort, can make me feel a lot better:

• I always keep a bottle of 2 liters of fresh water with lemon juice in it, and I try to drink it all in one day.
• I thought of replacing the water  with herbal tea, each day another flavor, so I won’t get sick so soon of them.
• I try to eat in the morning a little, and reduce the quantity of coffee I usually drink. I’m still in a holiday from the university so I can afford less coffee.
• The food I eat is with less fats. If I’m in the mood for meat, I eat chicken or fish. And I also eat lots of cheese. Maybe I should take some vitamins with all this but I can’t afford them…I’m just a poor college student after all.
• I’m also trying to take my meals at a regular time, in anticipation of the school schedule so I won’t be all messed up when it starts.

This little changes should make me feel better and healthier than before. I started all this because I always felt heavy and restless. I have a very bad habit of eating when I’m nervous or sad, or when watching movies & anime or reading manga, so to keep that from happening, I am now writing everything down before I eat.  And when night comes, if I eat too much, when I want to eat again, and I open the notebook, it makes me remember that I have eaten enough for he day, and stops me from going into the kitchen again just because of boredom.

I also started to make some physical exercises but since I stayed so long without doing any sports, I am now rusty and it’s hard to all of a sudden do pretty intense exercises. So every morning I do just how much I can do, without forcing my body after strict numbers. If i can do just 3 or 4 instead of 10, I do them. It’s still better than nothing, and I don’t get bored with them. Sometimes I wish I had an Elliptical but like I already said, I’m too poor to even dream of having one.

The first exercise I do is:

The Hundred — Lie on your back with your knees above your chest and extend your arms at your sides. Now lift your chin and chest slightly, so you’re up on your shoulder blades and raise your legs upward. Lift your arms 6 inches and quickly pump them up and down five times while exhaling . Now inhale, pumping your arms five times. Repeat 10 times to make 100 pumps.

Then I rest for a while, relaxing my muscles.

After that comes a series of  very interesting exercises which I found surfing the net. Of course I can’t do them all, they are intense and even if they look relatively easy, I first need to get slimmer and more resistant to effort. But I do as many as I can and every day, not only once a week as it says in the video. I will do them only once a week when I will be able to do them all correctly.

I still have around three weeks before school starts so I’m going to keep following this set of rules and see how much of a difference it can make. I started only yesterday but even thought I’m experiencing muscle soreness at the moment, I already did my morning exercises and only had a light meal in the morning with a cup of coffee with milk. Tell me what you think of this program, I’ll keep you posted on the results and if I’m feeling any changes.
