Day 7
One full week in and 1kg down.
Woke up clear-headed and motivated. No dragging myself today. My body was ready, and my mindset was locked in. I stepped out into that cool morning air and made my way to the gym, already visualizing the effort I was about to put in.
Started off with the treadmill with light jog to get the blood flowing, shake off the sleep, and switch into workout mode.
Then came the main session:
Lat Pulldown Machine — strong, steady pulls to build my upper back and posture
Mountain Climbers on the mat — pure intensity, full-body burn, nonstop movement
Bulgarian Split Squats — still one of the toughest, but I’m getting more stable, more in control
Hip Abduction Machine — focused glute work, burning in the right way
Mat Crunches / Core work — pushing deep into the core zone
And then back to the treadmill — as a post-workout cooldown, slow pace, but steady steps
By the time I walked out, I felt it — not just the sweat, but progress. I’ve officially lost 1kg in the first 7 days, and more than that, I’ve gained consistency, self-respect, and momentum.
No shortcuts. No comfort zones. Just real work, done with real purpose.

Today didn’t begin with the usual rhythm. I was honestly exhausted in the morning, both mentally and physically. My body asked for rest, and instead of pushing against it blindly, I listened. But I made one thing clear to myself: rest is not quitting.
I didn’t go to the gym today. But I didn’t let that become an excuse either. Instead, I gave myself time to recover through the day and shifted my work out to the evening. I stayed committed not to perfection, but to consistency.
Evening rolled in, and instead of sinking into comfort, I got moving. I changed into my gear, tied up my hair, and gave myself that hour of effort I promised at the start of this journey. Was it the most intense session ever? No. But was it done with intention and discipline? Absolutely.
I also went swimming again today. There’s something incredibly calming about ending the day in water. It clears the mind in a way nothing else does. I walked out of the pool feeling like I’d honored my word to myself and that matters more to me than any number on the scale.
This journey is teaching me that showing up looks different on different days. And that’s okay. What matters is that I still showed up.
Quote of the Day
Discipline isn’t doing it when it’s easy. It’s choosing to move even when every part of you wants to rest.
