why im not giving up

last week,i took a few days off work so Adrian and i could go to our city house to clear it ready to have it rented..i was physically exhausted moving furnitures, packing cartons and moving stuff. that was my exercise for 5 days when i was off the gym.

sadly, it has taken a toll on my energy to go back to the gym. but on tuesday night this week, i came back to the gym, filled with remorse, cholesterol and a few pounds heavier (im sure! because i felt like i was carrying another person when i was on the crosstrainer).

this week, in one of our shopping trips for food,we popped by a store which sells clothes. i was curious if i went back up one more size.

i took a size 16 dress that i like. voila! it was loose.


so i wore this size 14 version of it.


and guess what i found;-)





do not mind the jeans and shoes..i didnt bother to take it off because i was just measuring myself..


imagine this dress with heels on.

i was quite astonished,and amazed. i was expecting to have climbed up or stayed on my size 16 size,but obviously, i was one size down now.

i am so happy, i will continue. and bloody hell, my skin never felt this good without make-up. (if u look at my very haggard face, that is after 8 hours of long slogging work in the hospital,but my skin is clear as ever) ;-)

goes to show how my circulation has improved so well.

see you in the gym,folks!

PS. i am in no way stating i am skinny now,haha, but a size 14 compared to the size 22 that i was on September 26 2010, is no mean feat.. i congratulate myself;-)

so you,out there, who missed your gym a few days because you were tired, or were busy or just felt blah. get the courage to get back there as soon as your body and mind is healed. you'll find out that your body has been loyal even if you abandoned it for a few days. no need to give up. who says we can't rest?
