a great monday

had an excellent workout session today.did some new exercises and increased the weight on the old ones. the 1.5kg i put on during my cousin's visit has finally come off. so all in all am feeling pretty psyched.
my mum has decided to go to sri lanka for my dad's 1yr death anniversary. she says that i should leave early and spend aug in sl, learning how to drive. lessons are very cheap, something like $100 for twelve lessons while here each lesson costs $60. i probably won't have enough time to get my license, but i plan to become comfortable behind the wheel so that i'll need fewer lessons in singapore.
the thought of spending more than a month in sl has me worried because i don't know if i can maintain my diet and exercise routine. i forsee the exercise part being harder than the food, because din's not going to be there to make sure i go to the gym when i'm supposed to. i'm afraid that i'll slip back to my old habits.i guess the trip will be my first real test to see whether i can keep myself motivated without din, afterall i can't rely on him forever.
din says he will come up with easy exercises 'll be able to do while i'm away, so i don't have to worry about adjusting unfamiliar gym equipment.he has also set me a target of 70kg before i leave...so that's about 1-1.5kg a week.he says that the weight should start falling off quicker now that he's upped the intensity of our sessions. i'm gonna give it my all these next few weeks...so watch this space!
