My Backpack and I

Today is a market day for me. This is how I look when hiking to the public market. My simple outfit with a backpack is what makes me like a hiker in town. The day is treating us well with the sun shines so bright. Besides, it was high time to have this simple exercise and I need to lose weight. I hope I can do this every day, but it is not possible. By the way, it's my first selfie for this year. Do you do regular exercise? Are you planning to lose weight? Are you fond of doing selfies?

*sigh* Yes, I also have gained weight due to being confined more to my home during Covid. I would love to lose some weight... I walk seven miles (11.2 km) per day at work but that is all the exercise I get right now. Your selfie startled me... I wasn't expecting to see something that scary in one of your discussions.

Even I feel scared of myself.

That's the reason why I need to trim down a bit. Hiking is the only exercise that I can do lately. I do not want to do curl-ups, push-ups, and the like because of laziness.

@DaddyEvil If there is a chance, why not. It is really funny that I am a Physiotherapist and not into weightlifting. In the past, I let my patients use these dumbbells, ankle weights, etc. Perhaps I can do it if I have my own clinic in the future.

@Shavkat When Pretty and I moved last November, we kept all my weight lifting equipment. It hasn't gotten much use this past year... I have been too lazy to use the equipment. If/When you come spend some time, maybe we can talk each other into using it to lose a bit of weight... or, we could just use the weight bench to

spread out more food at mealtimes and see how big we can get.

Which is which?

I am not a selfie person, too. It just happened that I am wearing a face mask and face shield.

I only do this when feeling of doing it.

@May2k8 I guess you have a high metabolism to breakdown the food consumed. What do you think?

@LadyDuck When I went back from Tajikistan, I stopped doing it. Since I am wearing a face mask and face shield, I am fine with it. At least, the people will not see my face that much.

By Rufo @Shavkat So do you feel better wearing the mask and the shield together? I have been on my weight loss journey for over 3 years now and do a workout to stay in shape. I exercise and do not walk like I once did before the corona came along. I do a workout during the week after my 2nd meal. I have only done selfies when I have to but some things cannot do selfies and need someone to take my picture for me.

They are required to be used here now. I don't have a choice. I am planning to have more exercises at home, such as curl-ups, push-ups, and the like. I hope I can do them religiously.

I want to lose some more pounds but how? I love sugary drinks. Can you breathe in that shield?

I think it is fine to use the face shield with a surgical mask like this. If I am using masks made of cloth, I cannot breathe forcefully.

Oh face shield and mask. Those are mandatory, right? I don't do exercise and not planning to lose weight. Sometimes I took selfies but I don't post it anywhere. Those pics will stay in my phone until I decide to delete it.

Well, I do not do vigorous exercise but I do some every day, it's all my body needs right now. I do not plan things, it gets me in trouble. Well, kinda but not so that anyone can actually see me. I like yours by the way.

I am not planning to lose weight because I am slightly underweight, so I must start eating more. I rarely take selfi, this year I haven't. When it comes to exercise, sometimes I do sit-ups, sit-ups, run with the kids and take a walk to keep fit.
