October 1, 2010


Today is the start of a new month. I am proud of my progress so far! :) I am feeling stronger and am finally noticing some changes in my body. Gradual changes of course but at least I know all the hard work I've been doing isn't in vain. Above is my latest pic. The first pic was taken right after I started my job here compared with today. I kind of look like that twainese singing sensation Lin Yu Chun! Haha. The shirt I'm wearing in the first pic is made of a really heavy fabric and the one in the second is a stretchy type of fabric so it clings to your body. Although I can still see my troubles areas in the second pic, it doesn't bother me as I thought it would because I know next month I'll post an even better pic. I have never been this confident before in my determination and drive. I run 15 miles this weekend and can't wait! I know it's going to be hard but I know I can do it. My half-marathon run is in 2 weeks as well. :-S I'm nervous and excited about that.
Oh yeah, I met with my trainer a couple of weeks ago and just from cutting out my late night snacks and weekend splurges, I lost 10 lbs! I went from 202 to 192. :) I also lost body fat of course. I also lost some fat in the stomach and chest area. I wonder how I will look at the lower 180s? But I am not concerned right now with how much I weigh but rather how fit I can get. :) I am really getting into weight lifting and exercising. It's a release. It's my vice. I am happy to say I don't miss alcohol or smoking one bit. It has been like 12-13 weeks since I started quitting. I am proud of my self-control in this area and couldn't be happier. Well TGIF. Have a great day ya'll!
