Day Eighteen

My FFF- April 30, 2013 - Wednesday

Goal- Lose at least 15 pounds by July.

I'm ditching tennis today yay, but it's because I have to go to church at around 8 and if I had tennis I would be coming home at 7 so that equals me starting homework at 10 which means me not going to sleep. So. I'm not going to tennis today,

I really didn't do anything oh wait I did

Oh god. I know why I'm slowing down. It's because I became discouraged! This whole project was based off of David So's FFF project for himself, and one of his vlogs talked about the self-esteem that went into the scale and how much you've lost weight since the beginning of the work outs. It's so true. And looking at the scale and checking if you lost any weight from the day before is addicting. You want to compare yourself to the day before. Damn.
I CAN DO THIS
Even though finals week is in a month and we have so many projects due in two weeks and I'm so screwed.
I CAN DO THIS
Woot, I mean the pageviews that I have are proof that I'm not the only one looking at this.

Stressful day today. I applied for the Columbia Science Honors Program and, no judging, but it was really hard. As a freshman. I don't think I passed..... Oh well. After that I took the train home and went to my Korean Traditional Dance Class. Did that for 2 hours. Came home ate KFC (ick) and slept (worst idea ever) and now I'm doing homework. But also my extra exercises. :D

Progress is alright pretty good for now, I've sort of gotten used to portion control.

Today, at korean school (yes, I am Korean-American and I go to korean school fun fun) we took something called the TOPIK, which is something like a Korean proficiency test. 3 hour test, decently hard. After that I had two performances of Korean dance (yes I do Korean traditional dance and drumming, hey! Go look at my learning place: KTMDI. The website is actually really nice) and then I went to church, because it was Easter vigil mass and we had to decorate Easter eggs to sell. It was fun, I was very tired though. I could not stand during mass. My legs were killing me. Anyways. I didn't do much exercise today.
Busy.

I want to try and start doing more portion control. I can't eat on a healthy nutritious perfect diet, but it want to do portion control first, and get into the habit of 1. Taking less and 2. Less starch too.

NO BREAD (which is basically staple breakfast and lunch for me; muffins, bagels, sandwiches.)

Day Two

My FFF - April 14, 2013 - Monday

Goal - Lose at least 15 pounds by July.

Today, I played as a starter on my tennis team!!!! Yes, as a freshman. Normally I'm just a sub. So I got exercise out of that, and recently I've been looking into ankle/wrist weights because I want to work out. But I realized that I have to be in shape first and master the exercises that I do to even attempt to make them harder. So I found some online and I'm doing those. These are just leg strengthening, and because I am a student and I don't have much time to go outside and just run, nor do I have the self-confidence to do so, I prefer to work out at home, and so I do these.

Now my dad wants me to do 3 reps of 200 jump ropes a week.

And I cannot jump rope.

At least it's not hula-hooping. Most I've done was perhaps.... 5? Even with a large one.

Day One

For any of you who follow davidsocomedy, he's been doing something called "Funny, Fat, Fit". For those who don't know, he is a youtube comedian vlogging about him trying to lose weight. I decided to join him and I decided to post a daily log here.

Goal- Lose at least 15 pounds by July

April 13, 2013 - Sunday

Although I have been following davidsocomedy's vlogs for quite a while now, I never really followed his "Funny, Fat, Fit" videos, because 1. I thought it would just be about your progress losing weight, and 2. I thought it didn't relate to me. Of course I was wrong on both accounts, he was always who he was in his vlogs, inspirational, pretty deep, and downright hilarious. I've been wanting to lose weight for a while, and as a highschool freshman I'm still in the "trying to find who I am" and stuff like that.

I know the reason why he's losing weight is for a healthy lifestyle, and I want that too, I'm pretty sure everyone does but not everyone tries to reach it. But as a student, daily exercise and studies are hard to maintain.

When I entered middle school, I was 4'10" and around 100lbs. I was a bit fat, or chubby one might say, and then I was pretty self-concious, but at that time I played tennis 3 times a week an hour to an hour and a half each time. I was averagely healthy and I slept not too late, around 11. Later on there was more work and less time for exercise so I cut down on tennis to once a week and only for an hour and a half of a non-intensive workout. Soon by the time 8th grade came I was sleeping at 12 on average and I wouldn't exercise or necessarily eat healthy. Now as of freshman year, I am 5'3" and 135lbs. A lot of that goes into my self-confidence, and I know it shouldn't but it does, due to media exposure and of course the underlying judging that comes from everyone.

I've been working on starting and finishing my homework earlier by eliminating distractions and I've been sleeping at 11 now. Even at the beginning of freshman year, new school, new people, and all of that stress, I was sleep at 1 to 2 everyday. It was horrible for me. Sleeping at 11 is a big improvement for me. A better sleep cycle, but of course at times I have extra work so I sleep later, or I have an extracurricular that doesn't give me the time I normally have for homework.

After I feel as if I've developed a pretty stable 10-o'clock-done-with-homework-time, I want to start adding exercise into my day. I don't plan on checking my weight again until the end of May, but I will check it tomorrow and keep that for my own personal goals.

I'm trying to keep daily logs on this, and this is a personal experience, so yea you can hate if you want, but just know that, you're just the worse person in this case.

Exercise today- Man Overboard @RYC (good times)
