Pinay WAHM

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ To lose weight! If you saw me 10+ years ago you wouldn't think I would have this 'quest' now. As a matter of fact, my quest then was quite the opposite...to gain weight. I was told by my older co-teachers then that I just need to wait [read: get older] and I won't be wishing for me to gain weight. Boy are they ever right. I don't need to lose a ton of weight. I only want to lose 10+ lbs and be able to maintain it. Yes, I want to look better but the main reason for my 'quest' is my health. Lately, I've been experiencing 'shortness of breath'. The husband doesn't know so...shhh! I'm guessing it has something to do with my 'excess' pounds. Besides, I have diabetes in my genes so it will be better for me if I can stay in shape. I'm afraid that if I don't do something about it now, I will end up looking for the best cholesterol medications out there since high cholesterol seems to go hand in hand with...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ One of the downside of being a WAHM is the limited mobility. Unlike when I was still teaching where I had to walk from one classroom to another at least 5x a day, I now barely move from my chair. If I didn't have the little one calling me every chance she gets, I'd probably be glued to my chair already. As a result, I've been gaining weight slowly but surely. I tried exercising but my motivation usually wanes after a couple of weeks. Diet? That's something I have yet to try. I don't eat much actually but with me being stationary most of the time, even if I only eat once a day, I'd still gain some weight. Do I need to resort to fat burners like Leptorexin to help me get rid of my unwanted fats? Why not? But only after I've done my research on its pros and cons. Why does it have to be this hard to get rid of unwanted pounds when it wasn't that hard to put it all on?

Finally, the candies that we bought for Halloween [and the ones we got from the T&T] are all gone. We didn't know how 'busy' Halloween would be around our new neighborhood so the husband got 2 bags of candies to hand out just in case kids come knocking our door. Guess what? No kids! That meant all the candies were for our own consumption....and consume them was what we did every chance we got. Lovely! Well, the candies are all gone now and I'm happy they are. My 'make-believe diet' has been in jeopardy for those couple of weeks because I could hear the candies calling me every 5 seconds. So now I am on a hunt for the best diet pill out there to help me get rid of the 'candy fat' I put on in the last 2 weeks ...err the last 6 years. Even the husband said that we have to go on a diet now since we obviously look a little 'thicker'....hmmmm.
