Weighed myself in the morning and still 130 pounds but I am very hopeful that there will be subtractions the following days. Though the sleep is not so friendly with me as I was able to doze off around 3 and half hours again... Must be the illy coffee I was drinking for 3 straight days.
The hardest is always the first time... again... being able to pull myself to jog for 45 straight minutes is no joke; it was hard. I wasn't even breaking a sweat but I was already breathing like a thirsty dog. The first few minutes was so gruelling thing that I wanted to stop - tried to think of ways to lose the pounds without having to move; crash diet, starvation, ionamin (uso pa ba yun, or is it still an over the counter drug?) Would I be able to do away with exercise to reach my 115 goal?
Probably but I might have to end up like Karen Carpenter; the part where she died of a heart attack due to yoyo dieting. Then I thought of heart blockage... I imagined how my heart looked inside of me or like, in 3 years time. I saw a pale pink wrapper of a deep red almost purple thing in the midle of my chest. So, that's 'taba' clad heart! At the 20 minute mark I was starting to enjoy the jog; the panting stabilizing not like during the first 5 minutes. I was waiting for my skin to break a profuse sweat but it seemed like oil just came out of my pores! Too much 'tabang lamig' I guess.
I noticed how my arms started to store fat 3 years in progress. I was situated in the coldest part of my office so I guess the temparature had a hand in the 'fatness'. Well, plus the fact that when I started doing office work my life became sedentary.
To encourage myself, I was able to lose a lot of weight after birth - the diet was evil ! The dieting got out of hand that I saw myself forever fat but I tipped the scale at 98 pounds, inay! BUt now, moe than the appearance, I would like to be able to be healthy. As they say, health is wealth. I'm so looking forward to losing a pound :) for starters... Hard but achievable.
