cherry garcia's diary

what! are you kidding me that's a LOT of weight loss!
it might not seem like much but what I've learned is that you should find something that weights the 3-4 kilos you've lost and hold it in your hands. it doesn't seem like nothing now, huh?
and that is like an impressive weight loss for one single week. if I manage to drop that in a month I am happy :p
keep it up hun!
 
hey amiba,
thanks girl! as soon as i read your post i went off to look for something that weighs about 4kg to lift....and it felt GREAT to know that even though i can't see the difference in my body when i look in the mirror, that is the amount of WEIGHT LOST from somewhere in my body. From now on i'll only look at everything in a positive light, it makes it so much easier to move forward.

okay, just thought should write this, i'm really proud of myself because today is the first saturday i've eaten right since i started my healthy eating. saturday has always been my cheat day, which many times rolls over to sunday, monday and even lasted for a week not so long ago and ended up putting on half the weight i'd lost the previous week! so i've decided no cheat day for me this week.

second good thing today: resisted two YUMMYLICIOUS cakes :drool5:that my housemate baked (damn him...lol!), but i said NO....and for me, that was really difficult but i thank God that my will power is in the right place right now. I can only hope it keeps getting stronger because i'm on a roll!
 
kick-a$$ day

today was a good day. i ate perfect! and worked out perfect! i've never been to the gym on a sunday but decided to go today since i've only managed to go only 3 times this week due to my right knee misbehaving.

so today did:
-60min treadmill on steep incline
-weights
-45min combat class

i feel sooo ontop of the world. i wish i could be high on life like this every single day because it's such a good feeling.

week 7 of exercise: monday

okay, today was another good day...yippeee! i ate right and did:

-60min treadmill (varying steep incline)
-45min combat class.

i feel great! apart from the fact that it's that time of the month and having some bad cramps....just took painkillers to numb the pain.


So, today at the gym when i was in the changing room, some two kids who looked about 8yrs old start pointing at me and laughing. I wasn't amused and just ignored it and just went on with my workout. I think it shows that i'm starting to develop a thick skin and not let things get to me as much as i used to, if this was 3 months ago before i'd started working on my weight, i most definitely would have started tearing up then and there. That's how low my self-esteem was...but today i was so much stronger because i knew i'm there to make myself healthier and will not let anyone get in the way. If that happens again i'll have a word with them and let them know it's not nice. The gym is my one place of solace and don't need to be made to feel like sh*t for being there, especially not by a bunch of 8yr old brats!

LOL! thanks mike...to be honest, the order in which i would have wanted to handle the situation is:

A) slap them silly or
B) tell them to F*CK OFF
C) or tell them politely it's not nice.

the only reason i will choose option 3 if it happens again is because i still have to go there everyday and don't want to have to deal with any issues in case their mom's are borderline psycho or anything like that...lol!

Nice one on the exercise!! Feels really good to exercise regularly hey?

You know, I read somewhere that regular exercisers get an even higher exercise high than non-exercisers do, cool, huh?

Okay so today was another good day, i ate right and exercised right. But today i was already feeling kinda burnt out since i gave it 100% on sunday and monday....so i'm totally glad tomorrows my rest day. then will continue thur, fri and sat. it's the first week i'm breaking my workout to have a rest day in between, i feel this will be more effective and prevent the burnout i get by the end of the week.

Today did:
-60min treadmill (steep incline but at walking pace).
-45min aerobics class
-free weights.

Tomorrow i get to rest...wooohooo!
