slow and steady

its been a while since my last post, mostly because of the world cup and wimbledon :) on the weight-front, i'm now 76.1kg, so that's a total of 14kg so far. i'm noticing the weightloss having a more visible effect on my body. can one's tush become bigger with exercise? cos i swear mine's looking- for the lack of a better word-perkier, as of late.

i was just looking through my secondary school's physical fitness test results, and discovered to my surprise that i not only weigh less than i did then, but i also take a shorter time to cover 2.4km! and another plus (depending on how u look at it really) is that most of my clothes are too loose for me, which can only mean one thing; shopping! i'm saving up most of my allowance to splurge when i go to sri lanka. i'm going to try to not go too crazy though cos i've still got about 10 kilos i want to lose, and it'll be pointless having so many clothes in my current size.

oh and i've been noticing my collarbones...not just feeling them but actually SEEING them. incredible. i'd heard about them before but at over 90kg ther're kinda like burried tressure :)

of course there are parts of me i still have major problems with. my stomach for instance, it just won't budge. it might even have got bigger. but as i keep trying to remind myself, i'm not in this for a quick fix but to change the way i live; as opposed to just my body. this weight did not come on overnight. my poor eating habits took years to cultivate. so, as much as i'd like these reversed like yesterday, that's just not gonna happen.

i've just gotta stick with it. every day i feel a little better than the day before. that's a small victory i'll be happy with for now.
