supposedly i should be revising for this saturday final exam for jsm6022 but i am on blog sphere instead.

and supposedly i wanna update about my belated story of the first 90 days challenge now in this entry but suddenly my scumbag brain refuse to think much for this casual essay.

i am changing, i am glad some of my friends seek advises from me. i would gladly to share some and if only we are living near now, i would like to go running with them and do some workout together. because it is important to be surrounded with positive ready to be healthy people. i have my friends here my beloved uribe gang, but they are not ready yet to take a step and i cant make them to, because if i insist i will be the most annoying gal. i do hoping they will come to me and say 'i am ready', and please be sooner!

well in case if any of you readers found my blog and want to loss some weight, take my advice because this is how i started/how i did it.

to take any supplement is an option, you still can lose weight without it, in case if you're broke like me.
find loads of motivations, set a short-term target, like 90 days challenge.
willing and so ready to seriously change.
get yourself note books, one for food log and one for jotting your journey and to write motivations and tips you read somewhere.
you got to know your initial weight and measure you waistline, love-handle, thighs, arms. (trust me it is important). and do the measurement every 15 days.
pick one or two of your family member or close friend and tell them your current weight and measures. so you will feel ashamed and the intention to lose weight is even fiery. because one is now knowing your weight and you sure you dont wanna stay on that weight ever again, or else you will feel ashamed and disgrace.
challenge yourself and tell the selected person that you will win the challenge.
you must have that bitchy little voice inside of you that keep on yelling you to keep strong. just in time you are about to give in, that bitchy voice will yell, insult and intimidate you so that you will keep on going.
watch your portion.
eat healthy food, those real foods. real foods such as vegetables and fruits, chicken and fish. eg. hotdog is no real food.
do research about foods you always take and what should you replace it with.
limit sugar intake.
do exercise at least 30 minutes a day and 3 times a week. best exercise is zumba, its fun to do and burn 500-900 calories an hour. go for a jog, at least 15-20 minutes. seriously stress-relief exercise. love the burns.
drink a lot of water. my first 90 days, i must drink 4L or more a day.
sleep well.

this is how i did it. i know these tips you can read it any where because it is true. i approved all the tips are working. you just have to find the you that have the will to make it happen. and put the manja you aside.

12/4/13
initial weight = 65 kilos
initial waistline = 35 inches
initial love-handle line = 39 inches
thighs and arms = 24 inches , 13.5 inches

14/11/13
current weight = last time i weighed, 53 kilos
waistline = 28 inches
love-handle line = 32 inches
thighs and arms = 20.675 inches , 10.875 inches

the process is slow but expecting dramatic changes or results will kill you and your dream. low your expectation. strive for progress.

second 90 days challenge

yesterday is my second 90 days challenge. my target was to weigh 49kg but i guess i failed this one but i havent weigh myself yet since i was too ashamed to ask my housemate's digital scale. i have my own scale but i dont trust mine, because it is not a digital scale. besides i havent had my dump yet. but i can feel it i didnt drop much of weight for the second 90 days challenge. maybe im still around 52-55kg. tomorrow i'll check.


the last 15 days of the 90 days challenge i have eaten too many fried and oily food. i hate living away from home, i mean in my case is it is so hard to find myself some healthy foods here. yes there have but some of them are ridiculously expensive yet the quality is quite bad. so in order to survive starvation i had to take foods which are having more carbs than fibre such as mihun, mi goreng and kueh teow since im in the middle of no rice challenge til 2014. and i workout less nowadays simply because i am too lazy and hate to take shower. this kind of attitude i need to change i know. 

but the journey of losing weight is the best journey i had in life. i feel much better and gained some of my self-esteem i never had while growing up. now i can cross in front of a crowd without feeling down. but i still need more kilos to kill til i reach my target weight.

so in a few days more i will amend the pantang for the third 90 days challenge. strictly no carbs after 7.30pm, 3-4 days workout in a week (intense exercise inclusive), food choices and mealtime, and will add more self-motivations as well as taking more challenges, either workout challenges or no-food challenges. so my target for the third 90 days would be 47kg. insyaAllah.

fuck, i should make a new label bah kan for my weight loss journey? and i am halfway sdh to this life i chose. okeh i will make a new entry la for the past months passed punya cerita

have you ever had a moment when your head is full of thoughts or you want to share something and you only reach satisfactory by posting it online, then you can happily, peacefully have a good night sleep? i do. but slow internet is a bitch.


well, today i have both thoughts and something to share. maybe i will not tell you what's that in my mind directly (because im bad at words) but im getting to it.

first of all, thanks to my COACH (not a dealer, my apology), Krea for introducing me this new thing i called "new lifestyle", Herbalife. ive been consuming it, yah, baru one month lebih2 hehe. at first, i'm not that convinced with this product (formula 1) but everything she says is convincing and she have result! because she's my friend, and the information about the product is well-given, even though im totally broke right now, ( i even gave up my 2 months salary of which i should save for braces, all spent to buy F1 and become a member of Herbalife and now taking F1 and Herbal Aloe, duit habis sudah), i was like, yeah what the hell, give it a try, so i gave it a try. and my mom is totally cool with my decision (and because i have a legit point).

long thoughts short, one day i said to my bro "oh so beautiful that Kinabalu, right?" he said, "your plan to daki gunung still on ka? when?" i said "blablabla yes, bla this year bla fully booked bla next year blablabla" "kau rasa kau dapat naik kah tu? kau gemuk" it hits me. dengan confident "of course i can, because by next year i'll be skinny, full of stamina and healthy because im taking Herbalife" "bikin kurus tei tu?" i rephrase Krea's phrase to me "itu bukan ubat kurus, itu bikin sihat". during this conversation we're on the way to KK, and at some place i cant recall where, but there's a big board, picture of famous athletes who took/support Herbalife, and that is just a legit point depan mata tetiba. "nah kan, apa sy bilang (sambil pointing the board). therefore, because my bitchy mouth is a bitch, i must prove to him that i must be skinny and able to tawan the gunung, till the highest peak! kalau tidak, booo malu~

short vacation, weekend at Sarawak last week. damn, my friend Tja makin kurus juga! how? she's been following muay thai training for almost 1 month now. she and Cat's friend (Cat is my other housemate), Pat is the obvious one. last time i see her, on Jan, she was big. now, i just cant believe my eyes every time i see her. wow! another inspiration. how? she ate just broccoli and extreme exercise. therefore, if Padella, Krea, Pat can, i can so too.

hmm, what else. oh ya i bought this new book, a very good book for one who is changing his/her lifestyle to a healthier one, i recommend this book. especially if you too lazy to copy-paste those infos from the internet or twitter, better you have this book. entitled "365 Ways to Boost Your Metabolism" by Rachel Laferriere. i think i saw another of this kind of book, forgot the title but, if i see it again another day i'll buy it. 

lastly, before my battery died, i declare; to ban myself from eating rice starting today till hari raya. may god help me with this big commitment (im a rice lover T.T ) Aameen.

if only i have a good internet, i will make this blog as my daily diet diary.

ohya, im now an independent distributor too :)
(which i clearly cant start this business now, for im an absolute broke girl)

summary:

today is day fourteen

the first week, i gained 2lbs and that was really frustrating. i did all right. i took it twice a day; for am and pm, had a moderate lunch, drink a lot of water, jog and do movements. i almost lose hope and feel ashamed too. i don't tell people i took it because of shame security.

second week, i modified the spoonful amount. maybe i was taking it wrong on the first week. now i am back on track. lost the sudden gained of 2lbs and another 2lbs, and an inch!

thank god i found myself a good and concern dealer, which is also my friend , Krea :) 


and yesterday (25/4) is my mother's birthday, also my parents' 41st anniversary.
segala doa baik-baik untuk orang2 tuaku. amin.
