A very personal blog

Life lately

I feel like my hips are so tight that I need to release them but I don’t know how to do it properly.

✱ Work lately has been uhm, busy. I mean I should be busy but I’m still pretty scared to face most of my projects lol.

✱ I just started doing physical therapy at St. Luke’s BGC. It’s very different from Healthway Shang that’s for sure. For one, it’s a hospital so they have a bigger gym and have more equipment, but it also means the queue is longer for a single appointment. I had to wait a month to get a consult, and another month to start my PT. It’s also much farther, and parking is hell so there’s no way I’m bringing a car next time. Hopefully I get to progress with them.

✱ I just joined a challege I saw online. It’s called 75 Hard Challenge, but I’m working on the “soft” version because it’s much easier. In this challenge you have 6 daily tasks to accomplish,

  1. Workout for 45mins
  2. Read 10 pages of any book
  3. Drink 1.5L of water (custom)
  4. Eat healthy
  5. No alcohol
  6. Take a progress picture

You do that for 75 days straight and you win! It’s more of a mental challenge than anything else. The HARD version requires you to workout 2x a day at 45mins each session, where one should be outdoors. That’s that hardest part of the challenge for sure. At least with the soft version, I can log my PT sessions as workout sessions because I workout in them. Then I can just walk my dog for 45 mins on other days haha.

I have no problem doing 5 and 6 cos they’re easy peasy I don’t drink alcohol and I don’t prep myself for the progress picture I just take a mirror selfie.

Reading 10 pages is hard though. I thought I’d use it as a chance to finally finish A Little Life but it’s proving to be very difficult still. Urgh. I’m trying.

As for #4 as long as I don’t order out, our fridge is mostly filled with healthy food so I can manage. And besides, I’m pretty broke haha.

That’s pretty much it I guess I’ll just ease into this challenge and enjoy the journey. See what comes out of it! 😀

✱ How are you? 😀
