Day 5

Hectic hectic hectic day. Rushing.
Day 5- Good!
Leg pain- Gone.
Jumping jacks- Check.
Squats- Check!

Well, at least it started well.
May miss tomorrow.

bye!

Day 4

Wow, I'm actually proud of myself as I write this. Four days, not bad, eh?
Leg pain is much better. Did some jumping jacks today. Got terribly late for college today, so didn't spend much time working out.

And I wore pink pants to college today. Hot pink. :D

PS: A lot of things happened "today", it seems.

Day 3

Third time's the charm? I think I agree.

I was smart enough to not do those stupid squats today. Actually, I couldn't. So I focused on the upper body, and it was nice. Youtube does help. Anyhow, I wouldn't want to bore you with what I did and what I skipped. I'd rather bore you with other (un)interesting details of my life, but probably some other time. 10pm is my bedtime, you see. Have a good night. :)

PS. Mr. Senior Stalker, happy now? ;)

Day 2

I realised this doesn't need hashtags. :)

So Day 2 was bad. I'm not going to use nicer words to make it sound better than it was. It was horrible!
Sunday morning and my body refused, that's right- just REFUSED- to get out of bed. I literally had to drag it out.

Anyhow, I couldn't do much leg exercises because my legs refused to acknowledge they are mine. But rest of it was good. Sweating in winters owing to workouts is the BEST FEELING EVER! I'm now looking for better stuff on youtube so that I get a better idea of what I am doing.

It's true that I took twice as long to get down the stairs, and probably thrice as long to climb back up, but the pain is that "sweet pain" that I have heard other people talking about. And hell yes, it is sweet!

This thing is not as bad as I thought it was when I started writing this.

Oh yeah

Bye!

#100WorkoutDays #Day1

Firstly, I feel like an idiot for disappearing, again! After all that gyaan I gave here, and to myself, in October, I still didn't find time to come back to this.
Secondly, it's both a shame (because I'm blogging because I have to) and a good thing that now I will HAVE TO post everyday, since I have taken up the #100WorkoutDays Challenge. It's not really a challenge per se, more of something I'd been wanting to start since a really long time, and today was as good any other. I hope I survive the challenge. :)

#Day1

07.00am Trrrrrrrrng! (Alarm)

Damn, it's February 1!

And finally after days, weeks and months of postponing, I started working out. First day was good, I finally started! I did not do much, mostly tried to get my muscles to warm up for what's coming. 100 squats, some more warm up, some jumping jack, and I was set. Except, I wasn't.

So the worst part about today was the long flight of stairs I had to take while exiting IP Metro Station. For those of you who travel by metro, you may have an idea of what I am talking about. Anyway, the point is that my muscles were so stiff by the time I left for college that I could hardly move.The worse was coming down the stairs. At one point, it seemed almost impossible!

I have somehow got through the first day, and will hopefully rise and shine early tomorrow as well. However, I do feel stupid about starting on a weekend. Bye bye late Sundays, hello early morning workouts! And the tummy ache since yesterday evening isn't helping either. But, if I don't continue with this tomorrow, I know I will slack again.

So wish me luck, and hope that I can pull this off. I'm not expecting a very major before and after difference (considering I don't have much weight to lose; I'm 46kgs), but I will post a #Day100 picture, for sure. :D

Goodnight.

Hello, Stranger!

...is what I feel like saying every time I look at the mirror.
I am mostly the same person that started writing this blog in 2008, but my priorities have gone for a toss. I just went through my older posts and I realised that I miss blogging. I miss it a lot. It's funny how the least important things in life consume so much of your time that you have no time left for the things you love to do. And before you know, you have forgotten all about that part of you that loved to do those little things. I have stopped writing, blogging, drawing, playing badminton and a lot of other things (Wow! There's a whole list, now that I'm thinking about it!) and been too pre-occupied with irrelevant things.

But thanks to CRD, who happened to leave a comment on my previous post, I took out time and read and re-read everything that I have written. Thank you so much, whoever you are. You ended up helping me reconnect with my 'old self'.

Such Sweet Nothing!

It's a good good day.
I have never waited so impatiently for life to 'start'. College will be over in a few months and I will finally be able to do the things I have always wanted to do. There is a very fresh excitement in the air, the kind that I last felt sometime in 2008. Seems like the beginning of a new end.

It feels good. Really good.
Don't know how else to put it.

Kissing the world with fingers crossed.
