Starting to see results now!

I'm so proud of myself :D

I've been dieting and exercising for a week and boy.. I can see the difference already.

Cellulite's almost completely gone, tummy looking more shapely and more toned. I can't seem to grab as much "muffin" as before. My shoulders! looking angular again.

Best part is.... my chin's been up higher too :)

I used to exercise a lot harder than this but never saw as much results.

I think I know why. It's all the vegetables I've been eating! On my holidays back in Malaysia, I never do the groceries. So even if I wanted to change my diet, it was out of my control. I still ate highly processed foods, meats and carbs. I'd try to cut down portions but still.. this is the biggest physical change I've seen in such a short period of time. It's definitely the vegetables!

Also... what I did..

This year (summer anyway), I'm making sure there are no carbohydrates in my dinners. BUT, I can eat whatever I want for my breakfast and lunch. Breakfast the largest meal and lunch smaller. I've been munching on vegetables as snacks (Refer to previous post about brussells sprouts).

I'm allowed a dessert if I want, but it was to be in the early afternoon. No later than 4pm.

I've been taking fibre supplements to help cleanse out the toxins in my body (I think that also complimented the vegetables and training).

Ginger and garlic in my food.

No oil. Steamed microwaved or roasted.

And, I just recently starting taking honey and cinnamon before going to bed and first thing in the morning.

Apparently it helps? (I just started this 2 days ago so I don't think any of the changes were due to honey + cinnamon)

I'm gonna keep looking for changes sooo we'll see!

By the way, kg wise, in the number sense, there is not much difference. Maybe 1 or 0.5?

But shape of the body, definitely. Which was what I was aiming for anyway. Numbers don't mean anything if you still look flabby!

I'm gonna go for Christmas on the Beach with Sam's grandma and auntie now. Merry Christmas people!

Bye

ZOMG

I ate too much brussels sprouts :s

I'm.

SOOOO FULL!

Looking on the bright side

My focus on missing Sam should stop!

So here's what I've been forcing myself to think to keep myself smiling:
  • I passed my thesis
  • Canadian Visa application's been approved
  • I've been working out
  • I've been watching my diet
  • I'm getting a new car (a nice one - T. Yaris)
  • Note* NEW. Not used.
  • I'm on holiday
  • I've been working on my holiday (which I like, because I love earning moolah)
  • I've been getting night shifts - even though I earn money by doing nothing for the last 5 hours of the shift, I'm starting to think I prefer day shift more because I have more to do and time always pass faster when things are happening. Day shift starts at 0615am though, so well, at least, I get to sleep in with night shifts.
  • I'll be visiting some uncles and aunties on Christmas day. Not too far away from family after all :)
  • My brother, Rett got me a Chrissy present (pleasantly surprised when I found out)
  • I received my birthday present from JJ - a beautiful DKNY wallet :)
  • I'm getting my last cervical cancer vaccination tomorrow, meaning, no more needles after tomorrow!
:) bye

:(((

It's 2.00pm and my mark STILL isn't out yet!!

:((

It's 12.15am and my mark isn't out yet :(

:(

Time passes so slowly when Sam is away.

I miss him.


And apparently my thesis mark comes out tomorrow. I don't know if it will be out by 12am or 5pm, or if my lecturer was even telling the truth.

I hate this waiting game! :(
