where do i start?

i missed so much of the past months..(chronicling at least)

i lost the will to blog because my family can easily reach me on facebook. but alas, something happened on friday evening on the way back home from work. i wanted to cry that evening, and i know, i normally can thresh out emotions and feelings in this blog. a handy easy tool to pour disturbing emotions in.

i took to my blog, but for the love of me, i could not remember the password. so i did a backtrack just to be able to open it.

but i think i got over the incident now. ( to cut the story short, we ran over a hapless little rabbit accidentally who ran out of the woods from the side, rushed infront of our car, when we couldnt brake soon enough due to snow).

yes, i have stopped thinking of the poor lil rabbit. bless his/her lovely rabbit soul. may it did not suffer. *huhuhu*

the last entry was my birthday..i was going to post the birthday pics, but not yet. will do so, later on.

fastforward to today.

i took pics before we went to the gym;-)



i decided to take a photo of how i look like. i know i'm still overweight but by golly, i have lost so much since my birthday;-)






(i have lost my chest too..it looks extra flat there due to the sports bra, *defensive*)


(eversince i lost some weight, i am more confident in taking pics of myself without make-up. how liberating)

**

from a size 20-22 UK (in september) i am now officially a size 16UK. I havent been a size 16UK since i initially arrived in the country 8 years ago.

i was on a health binge the last few months and i have been very good.

these photos are a testament to my more 'active' lifestyle;-)

You are looking good, Chel! Inspiring! I'm currently size 14 (but would rather buy size 16 for comfort), and I want to go back to size 10 (ambisyosa ko) Hahaha! I'm running/walking lagi, pero I'm also eating a lot! LOL.

But you have inspired me. Thank you for all your encouragement. :)

I think i have been doing that too,Ai;-) ive been buying a size bigger so that i dont need to suck my stomach..i am now size 14 hipwise,but i still buy a 16 so that im more comfy..but my stomach is still a 16 coz its the biggest part of me,haha;-)

i dont think going back to a 10 is a problem with you..because i saw your pics from when you were young, you are naturally a slim and lithe person..esp now, you run...one day, you will wake up and it will just go away..;-)

keep running;-) (imagine us in Bora, running in our bikini's. game?) lol (free ang mangarap! hahaha);-)

if nakaya nako nga all i do, is sit down as soon as i finished eating (washing dishes)...and on weekends, id rather watch tv or stay on the computer, YOU can do it,when you have two boys that are hyperactive and to run after :-)

i am proof that it can be done;-)

WOW, Chel! You did lose some weight! I just have to tell you--while looking at these photos, my husband looked over my shoulder and he said, "bata pa na cya ana?" I said "No! This is her now! I think she lost some weight!" You really do look great! Now you have really inspired me to get back into the treadmill. :-)

Wow! Congrats, Ate Chelo! May your health and fitness journey continue. You look good and now I'm inspired to go back to the gym. Hehe.. I started last January but stopped because it has been quite hectic in med school (excuses, excuses! lol).. Keep it up, Ate Chel! ^_^ (YAN)
