I totally understand that you have put on some weight and feel like a couch potato. But it’s (1) h t you started doing something. Otherwise it will be too late! For a start, you (2) s get active. Don’t take the bus, take your bike or walk. Or (3) w d you take the stairs instead of the lift? (4) D watch too much football at the weekends, but play it actively. (5) W a meeting your friends for regular football training? I started swimming with friends last year, and although I didn’t like it at first, I really enjoy it now. (6) I I w y , I’d also change my eating habits. You (7) m eat all that junk and fast food. You (8) c start eating something filling in the mornings. I normally eat cereals or wholewheat bread. It helps me get active. If I feel hungry between meals, I eat some fruit instead of chocolate. (9) W d y t ? I’ve been eating more healthily for some time now, and I really feel a lot better. And it helps me study better as well! I hope this helps. Let me know about your fitness plan!
