Such a serious title for a post huh? But I’m actually just talking about my weight loss ‘journey’.

Anyways, this was the question I asked my Mom when I was looking at our full length mirror, trying to fit my older sister’s shirt. Looking at myself in the mirror, noticing all my ‘excess baggages’ made me think twice if I still have hope to lose weight.

I think I’ve gained so much weight from my 5 months stay here in the Philippines. I didn’t have much exercise except a few seconds walk to and from the rooms and all I could think about was what to have for snacks or midnight snacks. So, what can I expect? More weight and bulges for sure.

But there was a glimmer of hope when my Mom reminded me of my older sis who used to be on the chubby side ( like how I am now) and lost weight after she has done a certain diet for a month. “What if I’ll do that diet and try it our for a month?”, I thought. But I had to shrug off the idea off because I know that what I really lack these days is “will power”. So, what should I do? The answer would be quite simple: Control my food intake and exercise. But, that’s easier said that done. I would have to work on my mindset first and hopefully the rest will follow.
