A Thousand Miles

I made a promise to myself, again... I know, you may think that I have been writing a lot about resoutions, diets, promises and I have not been able to fulfill most of them. Remember my Master Cleanse? I only lasted for 3 days...

This time, I absolutely have no excuse not to do it. I promise to walk at least 2 miles a day, well not naman everyday, like 3-4 times a week. So let's say 2 miles a day, minimum of 3 days a week.

To help me, I will wear my running shoes the whole day, except of course if I have somewehre to go to, I will definitely wear it even if I'm just in the house. This way, I can just step on the treadmill and exercise. Yes, I am that lazy. Sometimes I don't feel like exercising because I don't want to put my shoes on. Sometimes I feel like I am a hopeless case, pero hindi, I am definitely not.

I have to be realistic, I cannot do it in just 10 days. I cannot kill myself to run an hour or so every single day, I also have a life to live other than worrying to lose weight. I should also not let that life get in the way of being physically fit, baby steps, at least 2 miles a day, no matter what speed for a minimum of 3 times a week.

I have seen people do it, took them 6-8 months or so. I knew there had to be something good with my being gala, this time, I really don't have to go out, I can just use the treadmill here at home. I hope I can fit in that dress from Forever 21 that I have been eyeing for a long time now, my gift to myself? New wardrobe, hopefully, for my new and better figure.

Will it work this time? Let's see. Just like before, let me document my progress every now and then. No more starving myself this time and no more slaving on the treadmill. This time, I will try it at my own pace, at my own convenience. Everytime I feel like procrastinating, iisipin ko na lang na: sayang ang isang araw. Why do tomorrow what you can do for today? Galeng magsalita! Sana gawin na! ;-)

If I may quote something from a blog I read from Ms. Jayjay Viray (Thanks Anne for sharing this):

The 2 rules of Procrastination:

1) Do it today.

2) Tomorrow will be today tomorrow.

Someday is not a day of the week.

Sabi nga ng bestfriend ko, hindi daw ako ito. Sabi ko, ako pa rin ito, mas mataba lang! Chos! Miss you bes! I know what you mean, I need the power back!
