New Benchmark

This might be kind of a bore, but personally, i'm making progress. I'm so much into losing weight, and upping my fitness level now. Just set a new record of doing 3.5 kms in less than 30 mins. Started of with slow jog, upped my pace progressively and maintain a constant speed all the way to 3.3kms and did a 200m warm down slow jog and speed walking. Did some weights just for a while just to get the other muscles working. But i still need to really work my upper body out. Nobody to accompany me to go swimming le. ha ha. Lazy to go alone. For this coming week, i'll just try to maintain a steady 3km / run.
The hardest part is still the dieting. Sit ups alone wont kill the belly fat. Even if i have strong belly muscles it still wont show any sexy abs unless i kill the fat. darn. Did some reading and here's a fact i find very intersting - Belly fats are stored energy. Unused, stored energy. Only way to get killer abs is to have low body fat.. and it comes back to dieting discipline.
My lower back has been giving me problems of late but i'm sure its only because of all the training and running and posture correcting efforts i put into. I'm wearing a back support brace for now, every night to bed.
Work has been good so far. But still, being the type who isnt always easily satisfied with things, i have been looking around browsing the net for better prospects.
75kgs, higher paying job, getting more money, buy new car, etc.. these are some short term goals that i set for myself.
The only thing thats gonna stop myself from achieving these goals is ME.. and i aint no sissy.
Hoohaa..!~
