So it’s easier to just eat out.” Do you eat breakfast regularly? “I never really ate breakfast even when I was young, just a small bowl of cereal or oatmeal. But I always drink my coffee every day, I function without it.” Do you have a regular exercise patterns? “Only when you kids keep me going to the gym. When we go together it makes it easier to keep a schedule.” How has your exercise patterns change in early adulthood? “I was very active as teen. I played volleyball, danced, and loved to stay active. After starting my own family I lost my drive to, I focused more on you kids and the activities you guys did rather than my own activities.”
Have you experience more colds or illness? “I don’t get sick very often. Only when you guys bring something home and smother me in your sickness.”
Have you experienced any aches, pains, and body changes? “Well yeah. My back is horrible my feet hurt all the time and my legs hurt if I stand too long. It’s a part of getting older.”
