Progress pics?!

Haha this morning I decided to flex a little in front of the mirror just for fun. Hey.. seems like the pullups, chin ups and dips are working (still doing assisted ones)

I kind of convinced myself that since I gain weight quickly, like when I look at a picture of a glazed donut I gain 5 lbs, I must also be able to lose weight and gain muscles well too. Definitely optimistic thinking and I have no idea if it's true or reasonable. However, I haven't been able to workout in a week and half since I was ill, therefore this process is so random to me. Nevertheless, it planted a seed of more motivation and glee at the proof of process. And I need that.

The past couple of weeks, I have been sick with a sore throat, congested nose, slight fever, and muffled-ears. It was frustrating because I felt like speaking was difficult and hearing was impaired, my senses were all so muddled. My eyes were hot from fever and my head was dull with congestion and I had a seemingly-dense headache. Add in a little bit of life's hardship to the timing as well.. 

All in all, what I derived from that is that health is always taken for granted but fitness is the only thing that I can truly work on 100% and it will go in the direction I want to go in without fail (everything else in life has its tribulations and even though hard work is always the best policy, sometimes there can be unexpected outcomes). And add in again my optimistic thinking: when one aspect of your life is successful, everything else will follow suit. I don't want to take fitness for granted, I want it to be expected.

hehh, I know this isn't much to write anyone home about, but hey it's a process and I accept myself and my body. What any human being can accomplish is magnificent and unfathomable. And what our bodies can accomplish and battle is truly amazing. I'm just trying to write my own story and hope to revel in what I will accomplish
