That was tough...

Well, trying to maintain an exercise routine while trying to cook healthy meals is definitely not easy. Every morning after hubby left for work I will be thinking, what shall I cook today? N it is made even worse when you don't have a buddy to go through the exercise regime with. N to run 3km everyday in one short, it is starting to tire me out. It was coming to an end even before it started. So I just thought perhaps I can break up my running into 2 more do-able portion - 1.5km in the morning and 1.5km in the evening. N maybe, just maybe I could even do a little bit more than 1.5km every time. We'll see tomorrow.

Today I kind of struggle to finish the 3km but I did. Hope I do much better tomorrow and the day after. Hopefully my effort will produce results and I don't stop half way.

Time for me to prepare dinner for hubby and time for me to get ready for my tuition assignment. I will write again very soon. So soon that you won't even have time to miss me. Heheh...

The Biggest Loser

With more time in hand, I have manage to ccatch the new season of The Biggest Loser and somehow I am kind of motivated. N I decide to start a routine. Wake up early to prepare food for hubby, catch a bit of sleep when he is off to work, go to the market once I wake up, prepare dishes for dinner, do some exercise and then for my tuition assignments.

I am here to talk about my exercise routine. It has been a while since I last exercise. One reason was work. I am always tired after work. The other reason was of course my surgery. After the surgery I was just too lazy to continue with the routine I had done before. However watching the numbers on the weighing scale climbing I was scared and nervous and the TV show kinds of motivate me too.

So starting from 3 days ago, I started eating right (eat smaller portion at regular intervals) and I started exercising. I started my run again... Wait... It was more of a jog/walk. It took me almost 30 minutes to cover 3km = 1.86 miles. Where has my stamina gone to? I have a target. If my menses come as expected, I have about 28 days to lose another 22 pounds. Is that possible? According to the show it is. So we will see. In 3 days I have lost 4 pounds. I will update all of you again by the end of the week.
