ROAD TO HEALTHY

Funny how i sign up to a one year contract gym but never really go serious. 

1) i rarely went for the first 6 months as i was still healing my neck ( spine muscle got twisted).. untill now 
2) Didn't really know what to do or keep track with routine 
3) Didn't really op to barbell and carrying any weights as doctor recommended me not to carry weights. 
4) Asshole gym rejected my medical letter from Life Care saying that it's not a proper hospital. (True Fitness.. FTW) 

So since im bored at home and wanted to do something maybe set a goal like my bets friend told me and just strive for it. Before i started healthy, i knew i was going for classes, RPM, Body combat, Pilates, sometimes if im no going classes, i jog, cardio and i knew i was consistent. So i started setting a goal - A MONTH TO HEALTHY 

Just to try and feel what is it like to go healthy and how do people maintain it. I am a carbs person, My boyfriend and i eats Mcdonalds not very often but still eats, pasta, i'm a dessert lover and i am a food hunter. 
CUTTING DOWN ALL THESE IS NOT EASY! 



This is how my first day started. I  did went super hungry in the evening

My first dinner 

During my 2 -3 weeks, i was craving spicy! All my food was steamed and i missed the burst of flavors in my mouth and i miss savoury feeling. I tried to set a cheat day for every saturday but sometimes it varies, like if i cheat on wednesday - i wont cheat on saturday. 

What do i eat during my cheat day - Maggi Mee Goreng , shared with my buddy ( dont judge), 6 chips and that its! 3 mouthful of ice cream, sour power as i craving for something sour, should have drank passionfruit instead. Went out to eat supper with a group of friends and we ate cockerels, chicken wings, snails and Wan

Felt the guilt of even going for a cheat day! i have not had pasta, process food, chocolate in a month! 

PICTURES NOT IN ORDER! HERE ARE SOME OF FOOD I ATE! 

MUM HAD LALA that looks like it was gonna spoil soon. 


chawanmushi attempt 1 

when your out and dont know what to eat - go for japanese 
 thanks to my mum's awesome asian cooking, i get to eat delicious healthy food AND  my dad who is a huge teddy bear told me to bare with it, soon i will get to eat and i said what bare with it? i am really enjoying it!

steam chicken breast with mushrooms and shredded sweet potato 
i had to resist not eating Nasi Lemak, noodle soup, NO RICE, curry and many more. Good progress! During my start of healthy food, i started something that i always stare at girls doing it - BARBELL!  and just started strength and conditioning.


steam salmon with brinjal and zucchini
i weighted myself during my 2 week of healthy and i lost 2kgs ( equivalent to 2000 cal)  just by going for classes! Honestly, the last time i weight myself, everything was sad face and now ALL HAPPY FACE. LOVE LOVE! Everything went down steep! 
Podgy and the banker muesli 

steam fish with giger and carrots for flavor 

salmon kimchi salad 
One of my fav - chicken breast and mash sweet potato and french beans. 
small chicken breast with bell pepper and brocollo - aside from that, fruit salad for munching. 
tried to make a nice picture for my morning oats replaced with ( overnight oats) 

Though i am so not a fitness junkie, had bits of cheating but i do really enjoy waking up to a flat tummy, or when i eat something spicy it's even more spicier. i managed to break 2 minute record of plank and 28 minutes, 3km, 200 cal. Step by Step. I hope to continue this to 3 - 6 months. 

What am i trying to achieve - loosing my body fat, gaining muscle, loosing my triceps flabby arms OMG! and just gaining confidence. 

i know one month can't really see much but just by eating healthy, my stomach feels less bloated and my resistance to nice food should stop! Those who love eating carbs like me, just stop eating rice or noodles or meat  - only breast. Don't over steam your chicken breast - 7 min is just enough and PLEASE - DETOX!

I would like to thank my best friend Ariel for giving me tips and supporting me. She always told me to stop whinning about my weight and do something about it.

Also, i think i shall start taking before and after shots to see results! So much more to learn and  i'm enjoying it.
