Persevering through Failure (from Sparkpeople.com)

If you become discouraged during your weight loss journey or find your financial aspirations out of reach, keep trying! Some of life's most rewarding experiences make you sweat and persevere through hard times, only to emerge on the other side victorious and wiser for having worked so hard.

the plan :)

yes, my never-ending plan. 

i realized i get overwhelmed with too many things in my 'action plan' list so today, i decided to do it one at a time. starting today, i will just be working on my rice intake. the goal is so simple (but for a big rice eater like me, it's a very challenging one). i should strictly go on a no-rice breakfast. this shouldn't be a problem because i am used to just eating cereals or oatmeal or fruits. the challenge is at dinnertime when i tend to eat lots of rice. so, related to the rice-intake goal, i will also cut down my rice for dinner.

this is no grand plan for someone who needs to lose 50 pounds but allow me to see some result from this simple plan. :)

" Before and After "

i always wanted to lose some weight before my 40th birthday. unfortunately, i never got to do it. i wish i had the same determination and discipline i had back then! now that i'm 40, i feel the need to seriously do something about my obesity before anything really bad happens.

let me post this photo of me and the hubby taken on my 40th birthday as our "before" picture. yes, the athletic and active hub's belly has also grown big! medjo patas na mi. haha.

makalilisang na akong kadako! ):

 

New Beginning

after i turned 4 decades old yesterday, i decided to create another site for my never-ending journey to fitness and health. i guess it's only right to start it the day after your 40th birthday.

i wish to see positive progress this time. so help me God. :)
