Admit it. We are not getting any younger. That’s why we need to care of ourselves. Health is the primary investment. That’s why I gave up smoking… again. Besides, I don’t need it anymore since I already have an outlet to release my stress. Jogging and staying fit is one of my options. Exercise helps joint pain relief. Sometimes I fell more alive after every exercise. I plan to participate in a run marathon next month. I know it’ll take my motivation up to another level. Run for fitness.

Sleep is not constant for me because of what I do for a living. I work in a call center and they require us to go to work in the wee hours of the night. Of course, at first it was difficult but I got used to it. But sometimes I can’t help but feel restless sometimes. That’s when those dark eye circle came. I guess it’s natural because my sleep is constant. Sometimes, I’m thinking of getting a normal shift job so I can be normal again.

I remembered when I gave birth, I was so fat that it made me miserable and frustrated every time I looked at the mirror. I thought I want to change what I see and be the person I want to be. So I started to take alli diet pill. It was hard at first because of the adjustment period. Myself trying to cope up with what I want to do. It was hard, very hard but I know it’s all worth it.

“The first thing which I can record concerning myself is, that
I was born. These are wonderful words. This life, to which
neither time nor eternity can bring diminution — this
everlasting living soul, began. My mind loses itself in these depths.”

– Groucho Marx

I noticed the hubby is getting bigger. I asked him to exercise and watch what he eats to reduce belly fat. Every morning I spend time jogging at the memorial near our home. Even though I can’t do more lapse, at least I’m sweating. I’m also doing ab exercise every morning and night. But it all boils down on what you eat. I advised the hubby to eat less and less so he can trim down faster. Good luck to us.

I sometimes dream of a house full of mirrors. Just like in the movies within the house looked more spacious  because if it. Even at my parent’s house, my mom install mirrors on our living room and now it looked wide and spacious, plus we can fix our hair without fighting over a small bathroom mirror. I also saw some convex mirrors installed in the supermarket where they use to see all corners of the place.

I’ve been having some problems with my hair again. It had grown already couple of inches and now my bangs is covering my eyes. I remembered when I was arguing with my sister because she was forcing me to get bangs and now I can’t believe that I have them and lovin’ it. I still have the same dry and frizzy problems with my hair. I wonder if I get hair supplements this time. It might help a little bit to ease up my tangled hair.

“Envy consists in seeing things never in themselves,
but only in their relations. If you desire glory, you may envy
Napoleon, but Napoleon envied Caesar, Caesar envied Alexander,
and Alexander, I daresay, envied Hercules, who never existed.”

– Bertrand Russell

I’ve been thinking of re-decorating the house for change because it’s been like that ever since I got here. This is actually the hubby’s house and it’s like this when I moved here approximately 4 years ago. The house is looking good already when we had re-painted before the holidays. But I think it’ll look better if we re-arrange the furniture, replace some old stuff and obviously, re-decorate the rooms. I might move a few furnitures later to start the process. I will suggest that we get wood blinds for the bedroom because the room will look smashing especially when the sun rises in the morning. I saw that on the Internet by the way.

I’m proud to say that I’m one of those with weight loss success stories. With my heaviest of 180 pounds from post pregnancy, I managed to trim it down to 145 pounds now. I know I still have a long way to go, but I know 120 pounds is not impossible. And now that summer is fast approaching, I need to double time. I hope I can take off 10 more pounds more in 3 months. We’ll see.
