the 70s-virgin territory

well not really but its been such a long time, it was begining to seem like a distant memory. weighed myself today and i'm down to 79.2kg, down 11kg! 14 more to go. took two extra days off this week as my blood pressure was low on thurs and was feeling a wee bit dizzy. din, my trainer, says that my body's trying to adjust to the new vigorous routine i'm putting it through. my cousin's in town for a coupla weeks. was kinda dissapointed cos he didn't comment on the weght loss,(i hate that i'm so needy.have to work on that) he just said i have a long way more to go! that's my family for you, a most encouraging bunch. i can see what he means though. i do look slightly slimmer but having lost 11kg( i'm gonna say it as many times as i can:) ) but i thought that at this point there would be a more dramatic visual effect as weel. but there i go again focussing on the superficial. this is a journey towards health and well-being, more so than a size 10 pair of jeans. three months ago i was morbidly obese and extremely depressed. now i feel strong, am truly happy and can run 1.4km in under 10 minutes! after yesterday's workout i met up with my best bud azira and we went to the esplanade to catch the philharmonics orchestra. the music was not really to my taste but the company more than made up for it and the food (japanese) was fabulous! love the pretty (and dirt cheap) top i'm rocking. one of the plusses of working out has been having the confidence to wear colour and not just boring black.
