Those who have radically changed their hair know it is not always a simple and fast process. It may take hours to reach the desired colour. Some times even a simple retouch takes a long time too.

I’d been a redhead for about 5 or 6 years. I started dyeing my hair at home with professional products I bought at a salon supply store (who hasn’t, right?) and mixing them to reach the colour I wanted. Facebook groups area great source of recipes for that. #not

Sempre tive preguiça de malhar. Quando eu era bem criança, fazia aulas de tênis e até era bem ativa. Mas depois de mudar para um local em que não tinha como treinar mais, passei apenas a assitir e nunca mais joguei de verdade.

Bom, a vida foi passando e eu fui engordando. Há um ano cheguei ao meu auge: 85kg. Não dava mais para ignorar o problema e decidi emagrecer de vez. Perdi quase 20kg de gordura e hoje trabalho para mudar minha composição corporal. Mas os detalhes deste emagrecimento ficam para outro post. Agora quero falar de atividade física.

I’ve always dreaded working out. When I was a child, I used to take tennis lessons and was actually pretty active. But once I moved to a place where I couldn’t train anymore, I became a mere spectator and never really played again.

Well, life went on and I gained a lot of weight. A year ago I reached my highest weight ever: 85kg. I couldn’t ignore it anymore so I decided to seriously diet. I lost close to 20kg of fat and now I am working on changing my body composition. But I’ll go into detail about my diet some other time. This post is about physical activity.

I’ve flirted with the idea of writing a blog many times. I would start it and then soon after I’d give up. Sometimes due to lack of time, other times not enough interesting things to say. They were always very specific and even I would get tired of the subject matter.

But lately, a lot of people suggested I wrote a blog. Not about one specific subject I’ve mastered, but just so I could more efficiently share the tips I already gave in the corridors of the office, or during a lunch break or even on Instagram.

Já flertei com a ideia de ter um blog várias vezes. Começava a escrever, mas logo desistia. Faltava tempo ou, às vezes, assunto. Eram sempre empreitadas muito específicas e eu mesma cansava daquilo.

Mas de uns tempos para cá um monte de gente começou a sugerir que eu escrevesse um blog. Não sobre um assunto que eu domine, mas só para compartilhar de uma forma mais estruturada as dicas que eu distribuía nos corredores da empresa, num bate papo no almoço ou no Instagram.
