Man-hands!

My hands are HUGE.

Seriously.

According to the internet (which knows everything, let’s not fool ourselves here) I have man-hands. Ack. My hand is 7” from the bottom of the palm to the tip of my middle finger, and my wrist is 6” around. Evidently the avg wrist measurement is 5”. This will So. Not. Work.

Unfortunately I can’t change the length of my hands, but I can work on the wrist measurement.

 

And I’m still 169 after almost a week…ew…

 

On another note, I’ve rediscovered this:

135…………………………169……….185

170. And not moving.

Okay, I’m DONE playing around.

Screw this.

Why the HELL can’t I break that 170lbs barrier?

Well ya know what? It’s coming off. Oh yes…it WILL come off. Even if someone has to die for it. I’m tired of this crap.

D&E – July 2008

[current weight: 178lbs]

 

This exercise thing is killing me. Srsly.

 

I feel bloody dizzy all day! It’s so….weird….

I walk/jog for 30-45 mins a day. I guess it’s too early to say I do it regularly since I’ve only done it twice, but the diet part has been pretty much successful (haven’t lost any weight yet, but I’ve got used to cutting down) so it’s time to integrate the exercise.

 

I was talking to this guy that lives on the building who’s also slimmed down and looks pretty cute now, and he says swimming is the way to go. I personally was leaning more to the yoga side of things, but I guess swimming will irritate me less if I do it regularly. So! Starting tomorrow morning, swimming as well! Because walking doesn’t really tire me (though my leg muscles ache), it’s just that I get too dizzy and my chest hurts too much for me to do more than 45mins…

 

I don’t know how I’m going to manage this exercise bit though, my head feels really, really weird…

D&E day 1

Diet & Exercise day 1: Trying to cut weight, I’m just gonna put it all here so I can review and keep track of myself. Today was a horrible failure in the lose-30-lbs campaign, btw… -_-

Breakfast:  corned beef and crackers (simple and inexpensive! )

Lunch: split-peas soup, ice-cream (ate wayyy too much of both, too)

Dinner: 1/4 of a fried fish,  1 bammy (steamed, not fried), some sardines

Exercise: NADA!!

(oh lord someone help me…I WOULD exercise, but the elliptical thingy is in mum’s room and she just went to bed…heh…maybe I should have tried earlier, instead of playing on the stupid ps2 x_x )

on Diets and Exercise

So.

I STILL haven’t started my exercise regimen. I’m the laziest bum ever. So lazy in fact, that I’m guilty of considering eating disorders…yes, unhealthy, blah. Sue me. I don’t know though, I think this weight loss thing is just gonna go reeeeeeeeeeeeally slowly. Here are my problems with eating disorders:

1 – Honestly, I can’t deal with bulimia. I don’t LIKE barfing. It feels horrible, and even though you feel marginally better after you do it…that good feeling is dimmed by the general messed-up-ness and stomach pain that goes along with a good ole round o’ puking. Not to mention the fact that over time it dissolves the enamel on your teeth…ew, not pretty.

2 – Anorexia….well…ana and I are NOT friends. Foooooood….I love food…fries, burgers, milkshakes, bammy, breadfruit, saltfish, potato chips, fried fish, ham, cheesecake, black forest cake, ALCOHOL….I can’t NOT eat, it’ll drive me crazy.

But exercise….it just irritates me….I NEED an mp3 player…desperately…without music, boredom overtakes me and I can’t do anything cuz I’m so bloody irritated…
