So today is February 1st, and it's four months until my favourite convention of the year: ANIME NORTH! I'm really looking forward to this year, as I'm doing not one but two cosplays in a weekend, which is a first for me! I'm also planning on participating in some panels, and I might even be running a workshop! More details to come on that though ;)
Speaking of cosplay, I received the first of my two wigs yesterday, for my Melty cosplay! If you follow me on Tumblr or have liked my fan page, you probably have seen the picture I took of it! If not, I'll actually blog about them once I have both wigs in my possession as to not clog my blog with wig posts :3 Hoping for the second wig to arrive sometime this week!
And now, in relation to the title of this post! I decided a while ago that I wanted to actually get into better shape for this Anime North, but wanted to wait until after the Holiday season (- w - ) harhar... So I decided, February 1st, I'm beginning my "Let's Look Good for Cosplay" training! :D Although it really isn't training...
I'm not going to lie, I have pretty terrible eating habits, and don't exercise as often as I probably should. So I've decided to make some goals for myself to look better for Anime North! I'm not really aiming to lose any weight since I'm perfectly okay with where I am weight-wise, but I could 100% use some toning up =____=;; So here are a few of the things I plan to do to reach my goals!
- Drink 8 glasses of water a day (optimally ice cold!)
- Stop eating past 9 PM (SO BAD, I AM EATING LASAGNA RIGHT NOW :| AND IT IS ALMOST 1 AM)
- Cut out all junk foods and sodas from my diet (I'm so addicted... T___T)
- Drink more tea
- Eat more regular meals (I'm notorious for skipping breakfast... and lunch ; ^ ;)
- Cut out all unnecessary sugars from my diet (that's going to be so hard...)
- Do regular toning exercises (at least five times a week)
- Spend less time on computer/video games (; ^ ;)
- Stretch everyday before dance classes (I'm losing my flexibility!)
It's not much, but it's a start! :D The hardest part is going to be adjusting my eating habits. Especially eating regular meals. I'm always late for school, so I rarely every eat breakfast, and I never have time to make lunch and I don't really like my school's food... ^^;; I know, excuses, excuses. But I'm going to try to at least get breakfast every day! And cutting sodas... I drink so much Coke, it's ridiculous. Like, people shouldn't be allowed to drink this much Coke. So I'm only going to allow myself one a week, if I really am craving it that badly!
Exercise won't be a problem for me since I have dance class everyday anyways, now I'll just add some toning exercises when I get home! :) But spending less time on the computer... oi... That's gonna be a hard one! But hopefully toning exercises will fill up that time xD Plus I'm going to be rehearsing and performing in Phantom of the Opera almost everyday in February, so that's at least one month where I'll be less computer active xD
I'm also aiming to improve my overall skin health so that I can look good in photos too! :D I plan on going to Lush and getting a new skin care regime going, since I've run out of toner and moisturizer and have been too busy to go get new ones ; ^ ;. I'm hoping to order some cotton masks as well that I can use. I've used them before and really liked them! Do any of you guys have a mask that you really like? I've tried the My Beauty Diary ones before, but no others! I'm definitely looking for recommendations! :D
So starting today, I will be trying to get healthier and look better! :D Wish me luck on this journey, haha!
