100% Kelly

A lot of people have been discouraging me to go ahead with my diet pills plan, but I so want to push through with it — especially when I see my big self on photos.  I really want to have my old body back!

My big girl has been in the repair shop for almost a month now, and I can’t wait until she comes home.  See, we crashed her into an unsuspecting taxi a month back.  We didn’t notice that the vehicle came to a full stop after it had bumped into another car.  Gats was driving our car at 60kph, and while he tried to avoid collision, it couldn’t be avoided.  Praise God that we weren’t hurt.

I accompanied the little boy to school a couple of weeks back while the yaya was resting due to a really bad case of tonsilitis.  I enjoyed waking up in the mornings to prepare his baon, give him a bath and dress him up.  I enjoyed watching him dance, sing, paint, and play inside the classroom.  While at home, I was happy that I got to feed him, give him a nap, and play with him.  Sure, we got into fights almost everyday , and taking care of him was pretty tiring, but I loved being just with him.  It was during this week that I found myself saying that I could actually enjoy being a stay-at-home-mom

The husband is really into this lomography thing.  He has purchased several cameras online and shows no signs of stopping.  In fact, he surfs the web every day and night for camera finds.  And just last week, he asked permission to attend a lomo event this Friday with a bunch of friends.  He’s never done anything like this before so this hobby must really mean something to him.  I ain’t complaining despite the constant use of my paypal funds :D  His hobby is relatively cheap (well, compared with mine ), makes him happy, and most importantly, doesn’t involve anybody of the opposite sex except me

Here’s one of my favorite lomo pics; taken with holga, film cross-processed(as if i know what this means! )

That’s my weight status according to Xenical’s website

This just confirms that –

1. I am fat (surprise surprise);
2. I have to drag my b*tt to the gym more frequently;
3. I have to do weights even if it bores me to sleep;
4. I have to take the chocolates off my lunch kit;
5. I have to take Xenical even if it means wearing heavy pads (i hear some using adult diapers but not me!  nooooo!   definitely not me!);
6. I have to enroll in Pilates classes to achieve that long and lean look (suntok sa buwan, alam ko).

Went back to the gym yesterday after a three-week hiatus. I am confident that I would have still maintained my weight after almost a month of zero physical activity so when I stepped on the scale last night, I was surprised to see that the numbers have gone up by 5 pounds!

WAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!

I never gained this much in my life (well — except when I was pregnant) in a short period of time! This is a huge wake-up call for me. I guess my body isn’t the way it used to be anymore and I really REALLY REALLY should be moving my b*tt and take the pudding off my diet if I want to go back to my pre-pregnancy weight. At this point, I am seriously considering taking weight loss pills to supplement my exercise and diet program. I’ve already asked my doctor about this and she already gave it a go though I am still hesitant. Aside from the fact that the supplements come with a hefty price tag (why don’t they manufacture cheap diet pills?), I’d have to endure the “physical effects” that come with taking it. Thus for now, I am committing myself to going to the gym religiously (say, twice a week? ok, thrice! ), and watching my diet more closely. The diet supplements will, for now, just have to wait.
