Midyear Resolution

I am not a fan of New Year's Resolution because I end up breaking them anyways. Let me try if changing "new" to "mid" would make a difference. So here goes: I, Princhecha Fiona, resolve to live a more active lifestyle.

I know I am a little bit overweight. I have been since I started working. Currently, I am carrying 42 lbs of fat, of which mostly are concentrated in my mid section. I used to not care. Heck, I still don't care that much. But I am beginning to care a little.

I enrolled in a fitness center last week. No, I don't have a ridiculous plan of growing my muscles bouncer big (I have nothing against muscledmen though, my Jimboi has a gymbod, I just don't see me having that!). What I'm aiming for is that I won't live a sedentary lifestyle anymore. And I want to lose my now-big-soon-flat tummy! Hopefully in 12 weeks time, I'll be in my ideal weight already, one pound a week is not that bad!

By signing up in the gym, I am facing my fear of getting the what-is-she-doing-in-the-men's-locker look. But I'm trying to ignore all those and just do my thing. Let the chauvinist pigs think what they want to think, all I know is that I would just want to use the gym facilities for my fitness. I am not there for any other hankypanky business. I woudn't even want to look at their parading naked asses and bulging, ehem, muscles for crying out loud. I'd rather look at my Jimboi noh! :p

Now, I also have to discipline myself not to always take a cab to and from the office. I figured that I'd cut my transpo budget to pay for my gym fee.

Also, I now have to be conscious of what I eat. Hard as it may sound to a sweet tooth as me, I'd have to figure a way to lessen my "unhealthy" food intake. I wouldn't want to put to nothing what I lost in the gym to only gain it back in the table. I'm starting with chocolates, junk food and candies and with my upsized drink habit!

The trainer at the gym asked me, after 6 months of going to the gym, how do you see yourself? My answer: if I don't see this tummy, then I'm happy!

It's not that hard a target right? Wish Fiona luck but I know she can do this! :p

I can already see a healthier me! See you all at the gym!
