JULY
First week of July is just the worst aaarrrrrrgggggggghhh!! Now between going to work and deciding on gym you really feel like you have no choice but to choose one and it is work. You got to work even though you don’t want to, the comfort food really is comforting and warm especially when you use your mom’s “all fat” soup recipe. You are thinking that this year’s winter is worse that all the other years, which you are either right or trying to find the right excuses to use when you gym partner calls you and checks if you are okay. You end up going to gym a week later only because you feel guilty after eating a whole box of chocolates that king bought you to say sorry for the fight you had. You get on the scale at the end of the month only to find you lost 2 kgs. It’s a working progress right? Lets move on…
AUGUST
Waking up to the almost dusty streets makes you realise that you have only 4 months left till you show up at the Christmas part in that dress you bought a few months earlier that’s two sizes less than you are right now. Back to gym we go. The cold front is slowly and surely warming up and your days at the gym are increasing bit by bit. With the dress as your motive ii mean what could go wrong or possibly make you quit? Another 2 kgs lost. Let move on..
SEPTEMBER
Three months left and the zip of that dress keeps getting higher and higher each time you fit it on. Confidence levels are up on the confidence radar and your jeans are starting to fit proper with no bulge hanging out the side. The diet that you got on the internet is working like a charm. Its spring and the floral dresses you bought for your birthday look so good on you and everyone at work it complimenting you. Even the jealous Mary that always looks good in anything and gets all the compliments and looks from everyone.” Well look at me now Mary, the bump in my dress that you saw a few months ago and embarrassed me in front of everyone at work by shouting “Congratulations on the new baby on the way” is now gone. The natural glow is now getting harder and harder for people not to notice. Your energy levels are high and you feel happier. Going to gym now is just for maintenance and loosing just 1kg for the zip of the Christmas dress to go all the way baby. Lets move on
OCTOBER
Life is a breeze. You know what to eat and not to eat. And when you go visit your mom you know how to say no to her all fattening meals without offending her. You told yourself that you are not going to fit on the dress this month, you want to surprise yourself. Lovely month indeed. Work is well, kids are studying for their exams with no hustle from you; king spoils you every now an then more than before. Lovely month it is indeed… lets move on…
NOVEMBER
OMG!!! It fits! Fits perfectly at that. Oh happy day, or should I say month… you can’t wait now for the Christmas party. And with all the confidence that you are feeling you’ve decided to finally go with king to his work Christmas party that you had been postponing for five consecutive years due to the bump on your stomach that was real, sometimes. You and your gym partner go out to celebrate and life is gooooooood… moving on…
DECEMBER
You go to gym almost every day for a week trying to make sure that everything is in place for the party and many more that are going to come up after that one. It’s the night of the party and my word… the eyes are liked glued on you, confidence level off the radar!!! You are feeling so good you decide to spoil yourself that evening by eating everything in sight. You worked for that body and it also has worked with you so its time to reward it too with some goodies. The following day you go to king’s work party, wearing the same oh so fab dress. Same reaction as yesterday and king’s ego got a major boost meaning the night will be much more fun for you later…oooohhhhhh…
You go visit family showing off your new body and telling your jealous cousins and every one in your family that it wasn’t much of a hustle for you to get the weight off when they ask you wont you gain it all back by eating all that you are eating now. The guilt pass is waaaaay under the bed at home when you go to parties, lunches and dinners by your friends’ places. End of the month….wow what a lovely December you had… it’s the 31st of December and you haven’t been to gym in three weeks, been eating yourself silly and now lets hop on the scale. What in the world!!????!!! Gained what? Yep you gained 4 kgs!! In three weeks? But how is that possible? I have been eating right and doing exercises and everything??? Ahhhh no you haven’t. Am I going to go into the New Year with all this weight? Depression mode…January….weight gets gained back… askies but the year is over…..
