What's worse than swine flu?

....looking like a swine.


Man, I need to start exercising.

I used to exercise 4 times a week – volleyball, dance, circuit training, etc. I was really good.

Emphasis on “was”.

I need to make a change NOW. I can’t use volleyball as an excuse anymore since the league officially ended on Monday!

I want to change.

I’m tired of thinking of what to wear in the morning. And it’s not because I have too many clothes. Well I do, but most of them barely fit me anymore! A simple solution would be to buy clothes that fit (aka. embrace the body I have today) BUT, I just don’t have the money to burn.


Sadly, I have a C.urves membership that I haven't been taking advantage of at all. In fact, I am wasting my money away since I haven’t been to the gym since early February!

What’s my excuse? I didn’t feel the need to go as The Hubby had asked me to join boot camp with him for 6 weeks from February to March (twice a week) and that I did. In addition, we were playing in volleyball league. I just didn’t want to overwork my body.

After boot camp ended, I should have returned to C.urves but I just didn’t. I was burnt out and I was enjoying the free evenings I had. What should have been a break ended up being my lifestyle. For the past month, I have felt unmotivated, lethargic and worse, unhappy with myself. So in a way, I’m glad it took me 5 tries to put an on outfit this morning. As frustrating as it was, I feel liberated right now. I want a change. I’m ready for the change.

So tonight, I WILL go to C.urves. I just called them and they said that since I’ve been registered for a year now, I can cancel anytime – just give them a 30-day notice. So I will go tonight. I’m not ready to cancel plus, I really like the gym. I haven’t been there for four months yet the lady who answered the phone remembered me. Lots of nice ladies there.


It’s June 4th today. I’ve already eaten a lot of crap this week so I will make June 8th the first week of eating healthy and exercising. I’ll still go to the gym tonight as a pre-start.

This month I will eat healthy and exercise 3-4 times a week. My goal is to stick to the plan.

I haven’t weighed myself yet but I think I’m back to my original weight when I started my C.urves membership: 127lbs.

I am 5 ft. 2” so technically I have a healthy weight. I would like to lose 10lbs and maintain that weight. I think 115-117lbs is realistic. When I first met Brent (3 years ago), I weighed about 115lbs and I remember feeling so great.

I want that feeling back.
