52.1kg, meaning I gained like 0.5kg from my vacation and my ice cream binge ytd.
hmmm, not too bad..? though I didn’t lose any. I’m sure if not for my binge ytd, the weight would not have changed, cuz like I mentioned I don’t think I gained much, if any, from my vacation.
going shopping with my friend later~~ one more workout video and I’m gonna go get ready! :)
though yes, I’m disappointed I’m still in the 52 region
ate ice cream, ate cookies, went for a run
Losing weight is 80% diet, 20% exercise.
You can’t out-exercise a bad diet.
these quotes were all with me, believe me. today is just…terribly down for me. I wanted to go to school earlier to finally start on my research after my vacation but I turned back home after reaching the bus stop. other than not having much to school to warrant a trip to school, I just…don’t wanna go, you know? sloth? maybe. I just felt as if the holiday has not officially started as I was just spending days of uncomfortable closeness with my family previously. I had yet to enjoy MY solitude, MY idea of a holiday.
this cannot go on though. I know, I know. my diet, my life… so I finally got up from bed in the evening after finishing a mystery book in peace and tidied my room. unpacked everything officially and swept and mop it, the whole thing. by then I was stinking like a rotting cow and I figured what other better time to go for a run? might as well making it a rotting mama cow eh?
so I ran.
my friends say take a break this week, and get back on track the next. part of me knows that getting back on track depends on my action, not mere elusive “motivation”. but oh, the beauty of pure simple doing-nothing-but-rot (or read in peace) lures me…
in other news, a friend of my mum came to visit and would be staying for a few days. we’ve been have SO MANY house visits and stays recently I lose track *roll eyes* Guess it was smart of me to squeeze whatever tranquil solitude I had this afternoon huh. I hate people invading into my space!!
have a good Friday/Saturday, you
my thoughts on my vacation
First off, let’s get the facts out of the way: I went to Taiwan with my family to visit my mum’s close friend. Let’s call her G. We stayed at her house in Taoyuan, which is considered more of a small town compared to Taipei, the city. We spent 8 days there in all, and met a few of her colleagues and relatives. Out of the 8 days, we spent 3 days at a quaint hostel up on the mountains, and it was a refreshing change from the hustle of the city.
Well… this is a weight loss tumblr, but I don’t wanna bore everyone with Just The Food. So I shall try my best to write what is relevant and interesting (hopefully) instead of elaborating the whole trip.
And I apologize for the lack of photos. Most of them are with my sis and we didn’t take a lot of them either. Instead, we enjoyed the scenery as it was, not through the digital display on the camera. Pretty nice actually ;)
Bought a lacy top like this on my recent trip. Have the same denim shorts. Can’t wait to look this way too
just went for a run. been 8 days since I last worked out. didn’t feel like dying, but I had some peanut butter this afternoon (slept the whole morning away) and felt kinda disgusted when running. planning to weigh myself this Sunday.
part of me wants to work off the vacation weight*. part of me can’t wait to eat all the yummy goodies we bought back from Taiwan (yes, that is where we went).
(>________<|||)
*I’m really unsure if I gained any weight at all. Looking at my little pooch, it looks the same. I don’t think I really gained much but then again, the scale is the judge. I did ate a bit more than usual, though I didn’t gorge myself or ate to the point of uncomfortably full (except for one time when we had ice dessert. it was the ice, I’m sure)
finally back from vacation!!
finally, finally. I love traveling but I love my bed more ;)
have not weighed myself yet, maybe a few days later after losing all this water weight. I don’t know how much I gained. wore the same jeans I wore to vacation today - it has always been a tight fitting jeans (good old trick to keep myself in check) - and today it feels a tad tighter :-/ but I can still squeeze into it though…
actl I don’t think I ate my fav foods during this vacation cuz my choices were limited by the places my relatives brought us. so while I ate quite a bit, I don’t feel satisfied… before leaving today, I insisted on my favorite dessert. yeah, I can get it here too, but it tastes better *there*. and we drank quite a bit these days.
gonna give my liver a rest (I typed “lover” instead of “liver” at first hahaha). lots of text posts coming up. you’re warned ;)
