I got tired of looking fat, feeling fat, and basically being fat! So I got my fat ass out of the dorm and out for a jog. All I can say is that my non-exercise since coming to Japan took a toll on my fitness; The slopes were absolutely killing me. It didn't help that the wind was still chilly, which resulted in my ears hurting after a while. On top of that, my stomach started feeling queasy, so I ended my run earlier than the intended 40minutes to an hour, and headed back to my room. Since I was feeling diligent, I brought out my skipping rope and aimed to skip a 1000 times. Sadly, far short of the target, my psycho-motor skills went kapoot and I kept tripping over the rope. -.- I think my muscles were tired after the run! Putting the skipping rope aside, I then worked on calf raises, squats, bicep curls, triceps, dips and pushups. First time in ages that I perspired, and my muscles were actually all warmed up! Obviously I had to make full use of the opportunity, so I got on my floor to do some stretching, and hey presto! I could slide into a split less painfully and more successfully than any other time in the last few months! :D
All in all I'm feeling pretty pleased with myself today, especially since I did my laundry so soon after returning, and had very little food intake. With any luck (and perseverance), I'll bring my weight back down to a number that'll make me smile. Even better, I'll have muscles! Reminds me, I need to do crunches and leg lifts to tone those abs. *nods* (At least I'm still hard under the fats, proof that my muscles are merely in hiding.)
Away with you, inertia!
