On Wavering Yet Again

Para nang sirang plaka ang mga goals ko dito.
I swear to diet...
and I don't.
I swear to work out...
and I do naman...
I have gone back to Jillian's 30 Day Shred after months in the treadmill.
Not that I detest my treadmill ha.
I actually love my treadmill. My treadmill is located at the uppermost floor in our house overlooking the street. I love walking and running (more of walking hehe) while watching the kapitbahays do tsismis, or take their kids to school, or see people running when it starts drizzling, or not seeing anything (I have seen one amazing scene during one treadmill session. Our place was blanketed in fog I swear I can't see beyond the window! (I kid not! I am going to look for a picture that I took to prove it.
So, anyway, I miss my treadmill, but I think only my legs are getting a workout.
And with the way I do it, you would expect me to slim down.
Not.
Epic fail talaga.
Because for every 30 minute session I do, I eat food equivalent to a one day session!
Seryoso!
So to tweak it a little bit, I decided to bring Jillian back to my life again.
Except that the first time I tried it, on the first week of October, I got sick.
I lost my voice and I had a severe upper respiratory infection that lasted till the week after my birthday (first week of November).
O, di ba? It seems like the universe is conspiring for me not to get slim!
I was back on Jillian Michael's 30-Day Shred a week ago, with a firm resolve to complete it without skipping a session, but I missed three! I had a seminar on Friday (about Code of Conduct,etc, but it was a fun seminar.) and my brother came home with Khalil last Saturday.
I went back to my workout yesterday, and included Yoga Meltdown. I actually liked Yoga Meltdown. It is so different from other Yoga workouts. I bet gigil na gigil ang mga yoga masters at Jillian, because she totally turned it around! I will talk about it later.
So, workout is doing great (except that I can't do side planks!), but the eating part is not!
I have a terrible habit of "Ooh, I cooked dinner! I just have to taste it!" And yung taste turns into lamon. Alam mo yun, parang wow, ang galing kong magluto. And feel ko malulugi ako if I don't taste it and get two servings! Tomaa! I need to get a second serving!
And that is what is totally ruining my goal.
Which is making me decide to check in here everyday.
And see if my journey will lead me to the right path...
The path to good health and ...
being a diyosa!
Tingan natin!

Hello, Dot Com!
Hello, DotCom!
Today, or a few hours ago, I am officially www.marieunwired.com.
I have been thinking of getting more domains a few months ago, because seriously, my mind constantly runs with stuff I should (but never hehe) write, and of course, I was thinking of increasing my online opps.
I didn't know why I, after having second thoughts on actually getting a custom domain, finally decided to get one.
Nope. I actually got two.
See, I have been thinking of writing about being forty plus, so I made this blogspot blog named "Fit, Fab and Forty".
Sadly, it has no entry yet. In my inner mind, I must be protesting that I am even around forty!
But I was thinking it would make for great SEO. (Probably. I don't even know how to optimize my site. lol)
Anyway, I have been checking godaddy for the availability of the domain for weeks.
I don't know why I finally got serious awhile ago and actually decided to get that domain.
But something must be pushing me to register it because it only cost me around 3 dollars.
Seriously. Godaddy is having a promo!
Which made me decide to register this, too.
So, that makes two domains at around six dollars.
Laking savings, di ba?
Hope I can make these blogs grow like my first one.
I registered this last, actually, because I cannot seriously think of a rockin', SEO-rich name.
But since this started out as a personal blog anyway, with my old Live Journal posts taking their home here, I decided to just name it www.marieunwired.com.
Seriously, I sort of act unwired. lol.
I did hear a popular mommy blogger talking about branding. And since, I started with unwired, must as well name this one unwired.
Anyway, this will remain as a "my thoughts, unadulterated" blog.
That is, if I do get time to fill it out.
As for the other blog,
Good luck na lang sa akin hehe.
By the way, I should have made a Taxation blog, because it gets plenty of hits.
Hmm, I will think about it.
But in the meantime, that topic will belong to Mommy Unwired.

Diet is Die with a T
Okay, so redundant na yung kauulit ng kapopost ng I will diet, because I have been saying that the whole year (almost the whole year. last quarter na kaya.) Hina ng willpower ko, mga ateng. I think I have tons of issues , first and foremost, money issues? hehehe
About a year ago, ang lola nyo was into south beach diet. Seriously. Sosyal. I got sponsored by Sir Mike of Sunshine and Veniz Hotel. Ang saya cuz I got to eat sosyal na hotel food while losing weight. You should see what I had for SBD. Purely heavenly sosyal food. (although sometimes, peg ko lang ang kambing. Feeling ko I will go "mee" for eating a ton of damo (lettuce, french beans, etc.). I was practically eating the whole day (actually every two hours) and I was losing weight! And ang dessert ha? Heavenly! I don't know how something sinful can make you lose weight.
Sadly, I am twenty pounds heavier than I was a year ago. Daming stress. Papa passed away. Kapos sa pera. Ang daming bayarin. Ang daming pagkain. Ang sarap ng karne. Alam mo yun? Happy ang lola mo, go eat siya. Sad siya. The same, mas matindi nga lang ang kanyang paglafang.
So, anyway, seryosohan na itich and don't look at me that way. Gusto kong seryosohin din ako. Tiwala lang. Kaya, watch out, November 2. Ang owner ng blog na ito ay magiging isang diyosa!

Still On A Rampage

| Source |
I have been running for 3 km four to five days a week.
But nothing changed.
I saw pics of myself at the new annex building's inauguration and heck,
MY FACE IS BIG!
Not that my vow not to eat carbs helped.
Because I always end up eating carbs anyway.
Believe me, I DREAM OF EATING CUPCAKES AND I GAIN WEIGHT!
SERIOUSLY!
I need a change.
And I think my age is not helping. I am in that age where my metabolism is that of a turtle's.
And the warm season is not helping either. It is sooo sooo darn warm I hate sweating. I would slather Driclor all over my face if I could!
And I always dream of sleep, too...
Hayyy...and I need to make a review pa naman of that Revolt website.
I have always talked about accountability, but I need the resolution, the accountability to be hammered inside my cupcake-dreaming brain!
So from now on, I am gonna make an update.
Not an update on how I failed, but on how I lost.
Big!
Target Date to be fab-May 18, 2013.
Watch out!
