The Big Bang

It is a just a few weeks before 2009.So how to leave 2008?

I am always looking for some resolution for the new year but as usual ends up with nothing.So I thought I should start with err,perhaps something to do with my physical looks,not that I am saying that I am on the large scale but of course that goes without saying.

Being large is a gift.I am happy with it,still able to parade along with some XXXL pants and overlarge blouses but hey whose complaining!Taken care of my health is what I am more concern off.Take it from me,whose has a string of sick siblings,I better watch my back or rather my body.

So,as I was saying,taking caution of my health..hmm..that is something that I had been doing for the most part of life.I have been walking almost everyday since I was in school till now(every morning to the sundry shop),had been good at sports in school and college,taken up martial arts ,tai-chi along the way but tsk..tsk.. my body weight just seem to heaps up..till I discovered I had Metabolic Syndrome.

Not a nice name to remember and not a nice sight to behold.Anyway,I decide to take up swimming.There I was, with a few friends,laughing all the way to the pool.giggling like some silly oldies once in the cool cool water and we end up not learning to swim,beats me but that's what happen.So bye bye pool,may be next year then.

You see,my hubby,a hunk of a man( I wonder whats make him stays on with me?)is a health freak not in the sense of whooshing down proteins or pills but the kind that does not stay put at home.He will go for swimming,jogging,some martial arts and of course his favourite..cycling.

I cannot cycle,don't laugh,yes, there are friends who does..What? So,what's the big deal?I cannot cycle and that is that but I want to.

Then,I thought,maybe I can get those training wheels,like I got for my kids,many years ago.Hubby got them for me,fix it good to one of our many bikes and I had a go.Hey that's not bad,I can pedal..one two three..whoa,I think the baby wheels gave way.Remember,my body weight!

So,hubby said,No can do..you have to try straight away with the bike,no more baby wheels.My legs are long enough to help balance.No thanks,I said.End of bicycling.

So,I better start my search again for 2009 resolution,some thing that should stick and stick for good.
