losing weight

Today needs a little celebration, that after at least 2 years sitting comfortably in my wardrobe, survived 3 times clothes clearing for the needy..., I can wear my khaki-colored pants again today! ... yup, I was that fat, and for that long...

I bought the pants nearly 3 years ago, loved it so much - as it was a nice change from my regular jeans. At the time, I was on the skinny mood that i had it made smaller on the hip about 6 months after I bought it...
But things changed pretty fast..., I met this beautiful guy - whom I cooked for and adores whatever I cook - that I gained so much weight, I can not wear this pants anymore. Not that I am blaming on him... but, man..., all the good food just begged to be tasted..

I thought it was rather annoying considering that I just had it fixed. So I kept it in my closet, aired it regularly with a silent pray that one day I will wear it again. .. well, it was not the only pants or clothings that I silently pray for.. amongst my stack of clothings, I have about 5 or more clothings with the same fate.

In December 2006, reality kicked... I was so big, I can't wear most of my clothing. I vowed I will do something about it... so in January I signed up a three-month membership at a hotel 45 minutes from my home so I can swim regularly. Which I did... by now I lost 3kg in just 1 month of 3 times a week swimming.

I realised I feel happier, healthier and prettier now.. even though I am still about 7 or 8kg from my ideal weight. I guess exercise does makes you feel better...

Now, i am eyeing on a fade-blue, straight-legged jeans I have kept for so long in the closet, I almost forgot when I bought it. It should have been sometimes around 1997. That was ten years ago!

I'll work out so hard I will wear that jeans again... Yess! And when it happens, I will definitely write that on this blog! that would be a day to celebrate!
