The beginning of change
What day is today? Today is Thursday! To be exact, today is 12 January 2012 which means I am into 12 days already in 2012. I did not make any special resolution for this year but what I am really into is to have a healthy and happy balanced life. And that is not very easy. I am thinking seriously, have I had one? I am not sure. But I can try to achieve one. And how do I achieve it. Sitting and thinking does not bring any changes. Obviously, just need to work out your ass.
By the end of 2011, the scale told me I turned officially 129 Kg. With my height, my BMI turned out to be 39.61 (Obese Class 2). The situation is severe. I am not overweight. I am obese. I cannot pretend that I am happy and active. I am dull and tend to immobile often. That's the truth and I do accept it. I am thinking how can I lose and maintain a healthy weight loss. In the beginning of December, I travelled to my friends, had very good food and slept fewer hours a day. I was so happy but on the other hand, I could not neglect the fact that I put on more than 6 Kg after that trip. When I got back to the place where I am working, the online order conventional electric oven was waiting for me at my doorstep and I happily started baking cakes and cookies which added more weight to my body. This is not the end. I went to pick up my boyfriend and enjoyed the most wonderful food in my life in Mae Sot. I am so happy. But I realised that I could not sit properly. I feel pain from my joints. I have been a big boy all life long and I have been trying to lose my weight all my life. I have never been successful. I have so many excuses not to or to skip workout at so many occasions.
I fell down one morning a couple of weeks ago in my room while locking my front door. I twisted my leg and it was so painful. I endured it for more than 3 days seriously. Until this morning, I cannot walk properly in shape because it is still painful at some points. I think there is no other options for me rather than to put aside my excuses and find time to workout properly and get myself back a healthy balanced weight. Shall I say it is one of the resolutions for this year? Of course, I can but I need a realistic target for my weight loss. That's very clear!
I am turning into my 30s. I am yet to do any retirement plan though I started working while I was 19 years old which means more than 10 years ago. I have worked full-time all these years. The only period I was jobless was the month of April 2008 from 1st to 27th. I earned more than an ordinary citizen of my country. But to date, I have saved none for my retirement. I have been a heavy spender again all my life. I have done book-keeping, financial, cost, management accounting training and I even had been an accountant for a short period of time and know how to keep track of my personal finance but I never had a successful plan. I made plans and recording my income and expenses on daily basis but the plan usually failed and it did not last more than 7 days. What was the course of the failure? Dinning-outs! Drinks! Holidays Travels! Home appliances! and buying so many unnecessary cosmetic items end up failing all my plans. I am telling myself. It is not too late. I can start today. I am starting now. I will not start tomorrow because tomorrow does not come. So I am starting NOW.
What else I will change? I will let you know. But I am sure there will be so many :-)
