A Real Good Morning
Thursday, April 24, 2008 at 6:26 PM | 0 comments
Everybody tells me how I evolved - from kinda fit to overweight. I used to run every afternoon. But now ran out of reasons why I should. I cannot find a motivating force. I do not have ebough energy to stretch, move and exercise. I do not even have the power to resist the foods served here. Or should I say, my job here mad me just a plain "tamad". Yes, I am so damn tamad to move. I never been this tamad in my whole life. I swear!

Just this morning, I went to the office to give my passport back to the PRO. On my way out of the office, I heard a voice (it was from Rehan, a purchasing officer):

Rehan: Hey!
Me: Hello Sir, Good Morning.
Rehan: Good Morning. How are you Mr. Fitness?
Me: Mr. Fitness? Me? I'm fine thank you. And you?
Rehan: I'm fine. Okay, see you again.

I never heard someone call me Mr. Fitness. Never, not even in my dreams. It was the first time. And it feels good. Finally I got a reason to smile even for a while.

I haven't lost a significant amount of weight since I promised myself to lose some. Now, I promise myself again to shed some pounds next time I see Mr. Rehan. I hope this time, the promise is not made to be broken. Put the pressure on me.

The Race is On

My Pinoy band of brothers and I had just finished our nightly drinking session. Rodjie told me this: “Hindi nga dre, ang laki ng tinaba mo.” I just smiled and said, “O nga e. Ganun talaga!” But I was so alarmed and was so upset.

Actually, it was my issue right after the holiday season. Of course, we still managed to celebrate the Christmas and New Year here. And just like the previous years, losing weight was number one on my New Year’s resolutions list. There were years that I lost a significant amount of weight. But the diet and staying fit was only on my short-term goals. This year, I told myself, I wanna feel and look good. So I have to shed some pounds. I decided to start the diet and to stay fit again for good. But things did not work with me. It seemed that the universe got tired and did not support me in this fight. During the first week of my diet, I got sick. I needed to eat heavy meals three times per day and now that I am stronger as ever, I still do. Then, I was staring at the mirror and find myself so bloated as if two monays are inside my mouth. I am an overweight, stressed bum! And I hate it, I swear to God.

I made the decision to become fit and healthy but I admit I lack action. My life here is so sedentary. I got no motivation. I am running out of reasons, I am losing focus and whenever I go to the dining hall all the sumptuous foods are so tempting and I find the foods so hard to resist. Yes, I cannot resist and I find myself eating all those prawns, steaks, chicken and everything else!

Hay, bakit yung iba, kain ng kain di naman tumataba? Grrr.

This is not just the state of mind thing. I know I have to do some action, start all over again and prove to them that I can lose weight once again. After all, I proved them wrong during my internship year. I know I can lose weight and I will lose weight.

Give me some months and you will see. There is no turning back now. I will lose weight. The race is on for me to become the next biggest loser! Right Lorraine?
