Fatty Fernando
Monday night, I happened to catch The Biggest Loser on TV. It reminded me of my precarious situation. Eating out 2-3 times a day, exercising very little, and getting little sleep (at least this week–but it was worth the couple of late nights). I was on the verge of joining the 300+ lb. club! I’ve been wondering how many calories I pack in with each meal that I eat (they’re definitely not very healthy).
Having been inspired my “healthy” friends, I decided to modify my daily regime. Normally, I do 200 push-ups and 200 crunches/leg lifts (they combined form) a day. I’m yet to run into a real gym. My last resort (Downtown East) had a “Fitness Center” that was reminiscent of the exercise options found around Santa Margarita Lake.
Needless to say, I really don’t have any way to work out. So, I think I’m going to add another 100 crunches/leg lifts per day and possibly increase the number of push-ups. I guess I could pick up my luggage and military press that (it weights close to 23 kg). There’s always the option of running…Yeah right. Who am I kidding? I don’t run in the US, so why would I run in Asia?! Besides, I justify it by walking all day.
Does anybody have some good home workout routines? I still have 8 days to incorporate it into my schedule.
I’m excited to see you in this new fat state.. it’s so not the Fernando I know..

May 22nd, 2007 at 10:32 pmyou know, i have been known to beat guys at pushup contests, so you’re going to have to get your game on. but seriously, since you don’t have an exercise ball, i’m afraid i can’t help you with your workout routine. I would suggest finding some asians to play soccer with, cuz burning cals is all about the cardio.
Probably more attractive than you with spaghetti all over your face.
Well, I could walk (more like hike) to my hostel, which is literally located on the top of a mountain. Yale wasn’t kidding…
