Getting Back on Track

I can't believe its only been about two weeks since I got back from my trip! I feel like I have done so much in such a short span of time. I've been getting back on track with the food plan. Getting back on track with work. Getting back on track with the singing and clarinet lessons. Getting back on track with the Brunei Speakers' Club. And now, it's time to get back on track with the physical activities! 

When I was in the States, I managed 4 walks, all one hour each. And it felt so good to be able to do that and appreciate the scenery at the same time. I felt it certainly helped me not put on weight while I was in the land of so much food I could eat!

I went for a walk with Elaine this morning at Bukit Shahbandar and I felt I have made so much progress compared to the previous few times we have been together. Not having the excess weight certainly helps! I don't feel that I have to carry such a burden anymore. And Elaine shared with me that she has discovered this little aerobics place in Kiulap in front of Lilli Lingerie. It's worth checking out so we have agreed on Monday at 7pm we'll do one class together.

Balancing exercise, work, family time, social time and me time is now important to me. I still remember myself 1 year ago when we were "assessing" where do we spend parts of our life and under health, in terms of percentage, it was a ZERO. At that point in time, yes I cared about my health but I was not willing to do anything about it. Wow, it sure has changed big time! And I'm really grateful I had that wake up call amongst other wake up calls.

So starting next week, exercise three times a week. Aerobics on Monday, Dance Lessons on Wednesday and Walks on Sunday! 

Life is GOOD!
