(no subject)
I had been steadily putting on weight over the past few years, and I maxed out at 78kg sometime towards the end of the June holidays (which is really quite heavy, considering I'm only 1.69m tall - borderline obese, I believe my BMI told me). Alarm bells went off, and I started my usual no-soft-drinks diet. The first 5kg dropped off quite fast, and then it kinda hit a plateau. But maybe it's the soccer or whatever, but yesterday when I weighed myself, the scale read 68kg. Woohooo! :)
--------------------
Yesterday's soccer match went very well from a personal standpoint. I managed to last the entire game without needing to be substituted, which was the first thing that I wanted to achieve, so that was good. I also made a few good tackles, interceptions, etc., so that was good too. But the best part was probably the referee saying to me in broken English at the end of the game, "You, no good ball player, but very hardworking." Well, he meant that as a compliment, even if a little backhanded, so as a compliment I'm going to take it. :D
