getting ready for summer
Ok, summer is coming up and decided to seriously work out again. I’ve always had a problem with my body image (and still do) and have tried every single diet out in the market and there is nothing else than workout + diet control that can make you healthier and fitter.
For some reason I’ve lost 10 lbs from my heaviest point in a period of 4 weeks, and I’m kind of worried about my health.
I decided to run 45 minutes (remember, your body doesn’t start burning fat until after 20 minutes of running. so if you run 10 minutes everyday, you’re not burning any fat. just the carbs.. so if I ran 45 mins, that just means i burned 25 minutes of fat.. BOO!)
stair steppers 20 mins, some arm exercise and ab workout sets
.. and relax in the jacuzzi at the end of the day..
(or is this a goal larger than life? LOL)
anyway,
I don’t want to get skinny or anything, but I really want to get fit with no flabby love handles hanging out =/
I’ll let you guys know if I have some progress along the road.
(just wanted to post a goal publicly so I could commit to it :p)

I need to start working out again too…I ran pretty religiously last year but stopped cause it was getting boring. I wish I can play tennis everyday.
