After our morning jog last Saturday, Mike kept on giving me "tips" on how to make me lose weight faster. Well, I am normally appreciative of these "tips." But there is such a thing as boiling point, you see.

Anyways, just like what I kept on telling my mom, who happens to ask me everyday, I told Mike I wasn't trying to lose weight. I just wanted to be fit -- and losing weight is not the end goal but just a result of what I wanted to do.

But who would believe that? Sometimes, I don't believe it myself.

Why?

The next thing I asked Mike is if he thinks I'm losing weight. And he said no -- at least he doesn't see any improvement. I don't see it to.

I'm sad and confused on what my priorities should be. Now that more and more people are aware that I'm "into" (if you could say that) healthy lifestyle, they expect me to lose weight. And fast. They all want to see improvements in an instant.

Are they expecting me to be 'Belofied' after just almost a month of running? I hope not. But the pressure is mounting and I don't know when it's going to burst. If it does, I'm not sure if I can handle it.

Anyway, here's some good news to all the people asking if I lost weight already.

Today I went to Cy's new place in Makati. I used their digital bathroom scale and I found out that I'm now only 140.2 lbs. If the weighing scale I used the last time is accurate, then that means that I have already lost nearly 5 lbs. NOT BAD for my first month.

Wish me luck for the coming months. Task completed.
