Since this term started about three weeks ago, I'm not doing well. Much less workout and not much wise food choice. I knew it, but I put my shoolwork priority. I stop recording things because I didn't want to spend my time on Internet. Then the result is this. It is exactly the same I did last year. It takes at least a month for me to lose 2 pounds, and I got it back in shorter period. Not only that but also I can feel my stomach is gradually losing tightness.

So this is what I try. 30-minutes workout shouldn't hurt my study schedule. If it really affect to it, I would shorten my sleeping time; it's just 30 minutes. Logging on here for 20 or 30 minutes shouldn't hurt my schedule either. Instead of taking a break or going kitchen and grab something, I log in here and record my food and exercise. I really need to pay attention to what and how much I am eating since I am sitting at the desk almost all day long. I don't have time to watch TV or read books, but I really have to make time to watch my diet. I cannot ruin what I archived here!

Today is day-6 of my body cycle, and this is about the time my weight comes down. This is a good timing to go back to the good life style.

So, I did workout yesterday (25min) and today (40min). Today's DVD was "Pump, Jump 'N Jab", and it was great. My core and legs worked really hard. Total loss time is 1hr 20min while DVD itself was 40min. It tells me that I need additional 30 minutes in order to do workout. Maybe I can manage to shorten to 20min. I'll see. If I do The FIRM DVD's express version, which is often 25 to 35 minutes, I spend one hour away from workout. It may not too bad.

It's almost 11pm. My focus is low, and my study doesn't progress as I want it to. I feel sleepy too. I had been so high and kept going till late night or early morning, but I feel tired today somehow. I am not sure it's due to workout or thyroid. My doctor appo is Thursday, and I can start new dosage from Friday. I'll see how it goes. One more hour, 15 pages more!
