I have this boxed set of Winsor Pilates DVDs from years and years ago. Sad to say they’ve barely been used.

Last week, I decided to give it a try once again. Hooboy, I had no idea I was this out of shape. I was practically in tears by the 15th minute. It was torture! That scared me. I used to be extremely flexible and now I can barely do the basic pilates movements. This motivated me to do it again, and again.

I’m going to try this for one month and see what happens. I’m really trying to delay having to buy the best diet pills out there. I would rather go the natural route first. Even if that route hurts like hell

I don’t know why trips stress me out but they just do. We have an upcoming Cebu Trip with Andrea in August and I am already stressed out right now. I already know I can’t bring my sterilizer so I have been looking at disposable Avent bottles (Avent Tempo looks really good) now my problem is how do I sterilize the nipples? I know there are sterilizing tablets out there but I really feel uncomfortable about having Andrea use nipples which have been soaked in a tablet filled with chemicals…I don’t care whatever chemicals those are.

How do people travel with babies? What do you feed the kids? Are they going to be eating at fast food places all week? Am I supposed to bring mineral water with me? I know Cebu has groceries and all but what if we don’t get to go during the first day or so?

All these decisions just for a 5-day cebu trip. Can you imagine how I’d be if I were planning month-long Orlando vacations? I’d probably have to be institutionlized already!

“Don’t act the way you feel, act the way you want to feel!”

I came across that wonderful saying in one of the blogs I stalk (hehehe, I have stalking tendencies) and I completely agree with it…in theory. I tried practising that last weekend and I was successful for the most part. My weekend was 90% wonderful because of it.

It’s a lot easier said that done though. I found myself lying in bed pissed and trying so hard to tell myself…act the way you want to feel, act the way you want to feel. I was able to calm down a bit but it took me a full night’s sleep before I got over it completely.
