Journal of a Beginning Sailor Senshi

It takes a long time and many challenges for a regular girl to realise that she has the power take her destiny into her own hands and make of her life whatever she wants it to be. To understand that with regular practice, dedication and faith, she can be strong some day, strong enough to defeat powerful enemies.

Five days into the Battle Log. Pretty bad all around fitness-wise.

I've eaten A LOT and not healthy (where are the veggies? I don't see them... oh wait here is one onion, a couple of garlic cloves... yep, I think that's it).

I've also walked less than the weeks before. I have been seriously slacking off!

 

Lazy Princess Halation!!

Ahem. Took measurements again today...

 

18/04/15

Body fat: 26%

Weight: ?

Arms: 25cm

Chest: 69cm

Waist: 65cm

Hips: 98cm

Thighs: 54cm

 

 

So I'm basically bigger and fatter than two months ago. Damn thyroid!

tumblr_mpqlp2CJ3C1rxui9eo1_500.gif

Gosh, I've used it so many times now... xD

 

It doesn't show much, but I definitely put on my usual 4kg, like clockwork, when my thyroid activity decreases I go from 50kg to 54kg.

Good news is that according to the measurement my body put those 4 extra kilos everywhere except my waist, which is pretty nice ^_^

 

I'm still feeling tired and generally meh. Muscles get tired at any kind of exertion and I feel the need to nap constantly, everyday is pretty much like those Sundays after partying too late and drinking too much.

To a point that I'm thinking I might have something on top of my Hashimoto (something like a little iron deficiency...). More on that after I see my doctor (potentially in another life with the waiting lists they have at my GP clinic).

 

------------

 

Enough on the ranting!

I need to help my body, it's struggling right now, so it's time to stop comfort eating and clean up my lifestyle a bit.

tumblr_mitrqnoNDn1rwg5boo1_500.gif

 

I don't feel up for it AT ALL, but it is necessary if I ever want to have my energy back. BECAUSE IT IS SPRING, DAMN IT! and Spring is the best season in Scotland, it's now or never to enjoy the sun and the long days, in three months it'll be over (summer is rain season here <_<).

 

Sooooooooo, I am going to do a challenge after all!

So why am I here and what do I really want?

 

 

I have decided to work on figuring out what my deep motivations and drives are for being on Nerd Fitness. And I've decided to use my battle log to make sure I make time for that inner dialogue to happen.

So it's not really inner, and whoever might be reading this, it will probably get super boring (and ridiculous) so, yep, don't feel bad for not reading through ^_^

 

 

--------------------------------------------------

 

 

The dreams.

 

Part of me wants to be Super Strong. Like breaking a thick wooden shelf with my foot and doing pull-ups like it's nothing kinda strong.

 

Part of me wants to be thin. Really, really thin. The super thin that makes high waisted pants or knee high socks - or pretty much any piece of rag - look great.

 

Part of me wants to be healthy. Physically and mentally. Be radiant with health and feel energetic all day, every day.

 

Part of me wants to be a dancer. Others want me to be a singer, an actress, a Kung Fu master, a stunt woman, a superhero, a good friend, a good daughter, a good girlfriend, a good mother(?) ...

 

And yeah, part of me wishes I was a supermodel. Or a genius. Or an award winning performer. Or a badass Kung Fu fighter.

 

 

 

Looking good.

Feeling good.

Being actually strong.

Being able to defend myself.

 

Having Power over my own body. in a positive and loving way. Like being able to do the splits or a high kick.

Why I joined NF.

 

I guess that the major drive was this hope that maybe I can actually be fit.

I always thought that I just wasn't a sporty person and that being pretty weak was just me.

 

Then I also went through a cycle of health issues that made me properly weak, both physically and psychologically. Discovering NF coincided with treating my hypothyroidism and feeling some energy come back. So being energetic and just, normal, seemed possible again.

 

I think I feel normal again, and I know I can be fit and healthy now. I'm almost like an average person just with super sensitive gut and skin.

That's pretty good after a year after all.

Let's find a title.

 

 

So, I like how Tez has her trials towards that same goal of feline greatness and geeky Amazonian wonder.

I need something like that. I need a title that will carry my challenges over the long term, so that I can look ahead and be constantly reminded of where my goals will take me if I follow them.

 

I think I might need help with coming up with cool ideas. Is anyone still reading?  xD

To beauty, strength, health and Kung Fu. #1

 

Sing, dance, act and fight. Episode 1.

 

I dunno, it all sounds dumb xD

 

 

It's seriously time to sleep anyways. Hopefully my new challenge will be up soon!

New measurements will come, but it's almost menstruation time so I'll wait for that to be over. (or should i just measure all the time and see...)

I'm reading!  I'm here reading a long! 

Hehe when it came to my title, I thought about jaguars (as I talked about) which are found in the Amazon and also are my favorite cats.  I think associating a favorite thing (animal, art, maybe like Kung Fu to your goal of being a super woman).  Hmmm maybe "A Kung Fu Master Who Has it All must..." or something like that.

 

Associating something you love with a long term interest or goal helps carry that on for a while.  I dunno if my title will ever change, but life evolves so my interests may shift too.

 

Can't wait for your new challenge!  :D

Thank you!! You are always amazing! :D

I've been thinking for a while, and here's what I like best "Finding the Great Senshi within. Chapter 1."

It's great to get a sailor senshi theme going, and it kind of encompasses all the stuff I dream of ^_^
