Well, good news and bad news. The good news is, I am 1 or 2 lbs shy of my goal, which is 155lbs. I’ve been weighing myself this week and 156 and 157 are the two numbers that show up on the scale. Still proud that I still am soda-less and rice-less for about 3 months now. The bad news, the other guys on the competition decided to extend the contest for another month. Since none of them weren’t really doing anything, they are like, “let’s add another month”. I was really furious when one of them told me about the extension and I’d feel like I’d be a party pooper if I complained. So I just look at it this way, I’ve lost at least 12-13lbs and they’re all just starting. One month is not going to do anything really so I just let it be. Although they have more weight to lose since I’m the lightest of the bunch, there should be no way that they’d lose 10lbs in a month because it’s hard. It’s possible but they’d really be not doing anything else but exercise 5 days a week. Shoot I exercise every other day and I’ve only lost that much and that’s with eating healthy. Having said that, my new goal is now 150. Hope I can do it…

Everybody knows the show right? Well, the lab where I work is holding their version of The Biggest Loser. We weigh in on June 3rd and the more weight you lose in the span of about 3 months, you win the money pot. I am against 5 more guys (because the girls have their own thing) and we pay 50 bucks each. I’m not really in it for the money, I just want to lose some weight. I’ve been trying to lose some weight for some time now but I just don’t have the determination to do it. If I win, that’s great but if I don’t, and lost weight, then I would be a winner myself. To help me with the process, my wife bought me a treadmill, well she bought that for me before the competition anyway. I’ve been trying to use the treadmill for about a week now, and I’ve also been cutting on eating rice. You all know we Filipinos eat rice at least 2x a day! lol And I’ve been cutting down on soda. So I haven’t eaten rice and drank a soda for two weeks now. I also been doing some sit-ups, recommended by a martial artist, Mr Jim. =)
Hopefully I’d get to maintain my diet, or better yet, improve it. I’d like my 171lbs to go down to at least 155. Now that I don’t have much time for tennis, hopefully I’d keep this up. Wish me luck!
