Day 7: Do your parents know you are trying to lose weight? Do they care? Yes, my mom knows I am trying to lose weight and she is a firm supporter. She gets inspired by my efforts too. We shared the fatness from her. Day 8: Your Workout Routine Monday:  Shoulders and Arms Tuesday:  Plyometric Circuit and Legs Wednesday:  Rest or Cardio Thursday:  Back Friday:  Chest and Shoulders Saturday:  High-Intensity Interval Cardio Sunday:  Rest I try to follow the above religiously. I use workout videos mostly now. Day 9: Did people ever make comments about your weight in a negative way Maybe behind my back, but in my presence NO. I am a little stern as a person so I won't hear it and most likely I don't care. Day 10: What was the hardest thing you gave up during this"weight loss"? Big meals and my lazy attitude.

Do you Binge? If yes, explain why you think you do? The question for the day is if I binge. Binge is an eating disorder, a compulsive overeating disorder [well, I don't suffer from any disorder of any kind] Sometimes, when I am anxious about a matter, I may search for sweet stuff to calm me down a bit but not eating as if something is pushing me to do it. Therefore my answer to this question should be a NO, I don't binge.

Why do you really want to lose weight? Are you doing it for you? Yes, I am doing it for myself and my health and to be able to keep up with my family too. I want to lose weight to be fit and healthy.

Question of the Day: Your greatest fear about Weight Loss? Plateau is my greatest fear in weight loss and that is what I am experiencing right now. I have been here for the past 2 years and it's making me really unhappy. Right now with the new style of intensity of HIIT which I have decided on, I know something positive will start happening to me soon and the pounds will surely start to drop.

I have done this before and I am doing this again. I call it a familiarization tour, just my little way of letting you know me. Since today is 3rd, I will start with the 3rd question: A picture of your Thinspiration. What features do you like about this person? I will rather call it Fitspo or Fitspiration, I wish I had any at the moment. What we have all over the media is a photo-shopped bodies of the so-called models etc but... I actually have one aunty [She lives abroad] who I watched shrink in a healthy way in just a year. She was so determined and strong willed, I would like to be like her when I grow old. I am not really fantasized about her physical features but her mind set which is taking her to places health-wise. Find below her sparkpage link... http://www.sparkpeople.com/mypage.asp?id=FEMISLIM
