stretching
~13 minutes on treadmill (1.1 mile)
16.30 minutes on arc trainer (1 mile)
17 minutes on bike (4 miles)
triceps press 30lbx20 (3 sets)

I have work tomorrow and saturday so no gym time, I should probably do 30 day shred one of those days….. it feels so weird. Even if I don’t like going I make myself go and because this whole week from Sunday till now I’ve done some sort of exercising it’s wired to think I will be able to rest for one day.

Before 2012 ends I want to get down to 110 pounds.

Thu, 02 Aug 2012 15:37:49 -0400

I’ve realized unlike other people I haven’t really made goals for myself with my weight loss or I have but I’ve never written them down which I feel like maybe the main reason why I am not at the place I want to be yet.

But I guess because for me to be where I want myself to but at physical is to go down a good 20/30 pounds which for others would only be the beginning of their journey. Or maybe I am making excuses for myself because I know once I get down to the weight and body I want that won’t be the end, I’ll still have to exercise to maintain that wait and be healthy. Which is the way it should be. I told myself from the start ” You’re not only doing this to be skinny, but to live healthy. “

This journey started on May 7, 12. 5 day after my 15 birthday, I didn’t want to be the fat Asian girl anymore, I was sick of my thighs touching, I was sick of having a double chin and big calfs, I was sick of looking at myself in the mirror and seeing not what I thought was good looking. It will be 4 months in 5 days since I started this lifestyle. I know looking back then and now I am in better shape.

Even tho I did exercise a bit in the months coming up to May I wasn’t determine, heck I still am not. But the fact that I know that it is possible for me makes it easier for me to see the path ahead of me clearer. Sure I still have a stomach, sure my thighs still touch, sure I’ve only gone down 10 pounds. But that is 10 pounds less, the most weight I have ever lost in my life so far. And on top of that I knew if I had kept on with my old life style I would had probably gain instead of lost 10 pounds from these months. All I did was cut pretty much all fast food and try exercising whenever I had the chance.

I started being around 133 of May 12’. The highest weight I’ve ever had, I remember it was back in March 12’ I got a weigh in for a physical and I was 127. As of right now whenever I think of my heighest I always say to myself I was 127/128 because it just seems so unreal that I got myself up to 133 pounds. As of right now I flicker around 122,123, 124 & 125. In the morning I would be 122 lbs and by the night I would be 125lbs. Why it is like this idk. I hope by next week it doesn’t fluctuate as much.

But like I said before, by the end of August I hope I can go down to 120. Which can and can not happen because right now my weight is confusing me. And by the time 2012 ends I hope to go down to 110. In 3 months to lose ten pounds might be much seeing but I’m hoping that with me joining the swim team I am able to lose a good amount of weight.

My head is in a million places right now.

52 minutes on arc trainer ( 3 miles )

I actually sweated this time on the arc trainer! I think because this time I actually tried to maintain 6/7 bars then the last two weeks I just went with whatever I got and letting it rise and fall.

Every time I wanted to stop I just went faster or put the speed higher so I could get to my target distance. LOL. I really didn’t want to go but a voice in my head put guilt on me and said that if I really want to get it this time I have to go the whole way.

Woke up so sore from yesterday. It feels good because I know it means I did something but at the same time I am s tired.

I should probably do more pop pilates video but I’m just to lazy too. Bad but I’ll try and do so tomorrow.

I am trying my best right now, actually I am not but it’s a much improvement then what I have been doing the last few weeks. I didn’t do this just so I could give up midway. I still have a month or so of summer left to get in shape and on top of that swim which I could probably lose a good 5-10 lbs. 20 lbs tops but that would only be in my dreams and would put my at a very unhealthy weight tho.

I want to be happy, and to lose weight and to be healthy.

I want to lose 5 pounds before schools starts. My weight has been weird because I am just about to finish my period but it says 125. I need it to go down to 120. I can only cross my fingers that I can go down to 117. I would love to be back in the teens for weight. Jfc. But I’m not saying 115 because I feel like if I put that into my head I will never get the weight off.
