slipping....

Its been a week and half since I started my workout, and I've only lost one pound.  Maybe its not realistic to see significant results after such a short period, but I'm definitely feeling the frustration.  I try hard every workout and I do my best...but these damn calories are so hard to shed!!

I know I must stay focused and not think negatively, but its not easy.  Its a struggle and I'm taking baby steps.  I need to amp it up more and I want to see decent results!  I read before that 2 pounds a week is a realistic goal...in that case, I'm not making much progress.

Housekeeping is a little bit easier, it only took half a day to get everything clean and in order, and so far I'm maintaining it.  I guess that's one positive thing...but I really would rather lose more weight than lose more dirt (at home) !

I must keep my focus...I must keep my focus.

Wedding Craze

I've just revisited Dale and Yeng's wedding blog and it made me even more excited to get things rolling for ours!  Dale and Yeng got engaged last December and their having their wedding at a resort I heard about 2 years ago...when it was still under construction.  Its fun reading about what they're going through and comparing it with what Allan and I have / are going through ourselves.  Makes me think that I'll miss planning a wedding when its all over ..but all the more reason to make sure we execute the ideas we like.  We only get one chance, and we have to make it right...without breaking the bank.

Other friends have also gotten engaged last December, Nobs and Tots, Marlon and Jackie, Joel and Tinay...is it me or are people suddenly getting married?!?  Yes, its probably also because we're at that age...but its just more heartwarming to think its because everyone's happy.

So to all my engaged friends, happy wedding planning!  Don't forget to send me your invites and I promise I'll do my best to attend (budget and time allowing) :)

Day 1 Complete.

I knew eating healthy and following this workout plan would not be easy.  Even then, I was not prepared to watch a group of extremely fit people showing you workout moves where they themselves look like they're having a hard time.  How was I supposed to do all of those??

90 Minutes of workout for 90 days.  If you've heard this before, then you know what I'm attempting to follow.  Before Day 1 I was excited to lose weight.  Now, well, I'm more apprehensive.  I don't know if I can keep doing this everyday for the next three months....A few minutes ago I just told myself  "Day 1's over, now you have 89 days left".  Yes, that was me being motivational.

The diet plan on the other hand doesnt seem so bad food-wise.  I'm a little concerned with the amount of preparation required.  I've bought tools to make it all fun (new kitchen gadgets!)....but its definitely not Rachel Ray's 30 Minute Meals.

Day 1 down, 89 more days to go!
