I’m happy to
say that now I can run the whole way without needing to stop and catch my
breath. I’m also very happy to lose 4 kilos making my weight a total of 60
kilos. Not bad for 2-3 months of exercising and cutting down on carbs. But it
hasn’t been easy and I didn’t want to tempt myself by looking at all the good
stuff everyone is blogging about, so I kept a very low profile. I want to reach
my goal and bring my weight back to 55 kilos so I still have some losing to do.
I know I can do it, because I manage to do it before, and I want to do it the
right way. Once I reach this weight I just need to maintain it and that’s even
harder than losing it in the first place. I’ve been neglecting my body and I really
need to feel comfortable in it again. Besides I have a wedding in California
next summer and I want to wow everyone there =)
I’m also
thinking about what I want to do, since my work is no longer satisfying. It is
just not the same anymore with all the rules (that can change per day). It used
to be a very good job with all the extra little benefits, but without them, it’s
just a job like no other. It’s a shame because I’ve been working there for 10
years and it’s almost my second home. The week always went by so fast and I never
mind going to work and go that extra mile if needed. Now I just go in, do my
job and go home asap. I miss the good old days, but I’m afraid they are gone
forever. So if I don’t work here, what will I do then? It’s a question I haven’t
been able to answer yet.
So my dear
friends, I haven’t forgotten about you. I’m doing well but just need time to
work on myself and to find something I like to do...
I hope to get
back to blogging soon. I still have some great recipes I want to share. Unfortunately
great recipes are mostly not the healthiest ones!
Well done my friend!! Keep up the good work!! :)
ReplyDeleteTake your time and focus on reducing weight, which is the most importan thing for you right now. There is no such satisfaction than seeing you healthy and fit in front of the mirror. Have a great time and take life as it comes!!
ReplyDeleteHeya Lilly, I've also been MIA from my blog and my posts have been patchy lately. Looks like we're going through the same kind of funk but the good thing is, we are both exercising more. I'll race you to that 55kg, girl! Lol, you're going to wow everyone by the time next summer comes around, I'm sure of it.
ReplyDeleteNow, I want to go through some of your posts to get ideas on Vietnamese food. A friend has requested that I post something Vietnamese but put my own spin on it, and the first person I thought of was you! Take care ok :)
Well done on the new slimmer you! Perhaps when you get back to blogging you could share some of the skinnier low carb dishes you've been enjoying, Lilly.
ReplyDeleteHi Lilly. I've been missing you. Thanks for the update on your whereabouts. I wish I had your determination to exercise and go an a healthy diet. Blogging (and aging) has made me pile on the pounds.
ReplyDeleteI hope you find something that you really want to do. I always say, we only have one life, we might as well make it a happy one. Take care always.
