Nothing in particular

Just random photos of happenings and such to keep the blog updated on how life has been.

Have gotten the Body Rock tv app on my phone and have been salivating over the progress pictures that some of the bodyrockers have posted! Great motivation that I too can be just like that! *obsessed. Anyhoos, got some motivational pictures off the site as well to keep pushing myself. Below are some of my fav!

Really glad that some of my friends have also gotten into working out recently! We have a chat group in whatsapp under 'Gym Buddies'. Hope this blossoms into something long lasting and worthwhile! Keep pushing, you!

As we are still on the subject of fitness (isn't that all I talk about as of late?), I've begun incorporating Body Rock into my workouts! Here is an example of how a 12-minute bodyrock session looks like.

Day 1 of 30 day challenge. 50 secs work, 10 secs rest 7 rounds till list is completed. Those are what I managed to score from the fitness test. Don't judge me.

Day 2's workout. 50 secs on, 10 secs off, 12 rounds. I really loved Day 2 so on a Body Rock rest day, I did this again along with Jillian Michael's Ripped in 30! I must beast myself! Roarrr!!!

Bodyrock is a definite killer. I can feel it on my thighs and arms but all the pain will be worth it!

I've also started doing a bit of jogging. While I used to loathe it with a vengeance, I find that my stamina has actually improved! Or it could just be the right shoes heh. I do interval runs in Bulatan Park for about 4 rounds. Am planning on doing jogs about 2-3 times a week. A good thing is that the mom and sister have also started getting into exercising and hence, the start of jogging. Now if only we can get the father into getting healthy. Le sigh.

A photo of my healthy devilled eggs with yogurt! Made this for lunch munch along with a slice of wholemeal toast. Satisfaction indeed.

Eggs play quite a role in my diet. I make sure to have at most 2 a day for that protein. Of course, I do have my fill of tuna too. Or chicken and such during dinner. Om nom nom nom.

Days when I feel like taking shots of my clothes (which is really very seldom). Got the shirt online cos I fell in love with the fishtail back!

Yet another achievement to talk about: Finally being able to be an M size again! Yes, L and XL were home to me for the past few years due to my always expanding waistline and fats in the chest! Never again. Thighs still need a lot of working. Need to get more muscles in!

Le Daphne and I in Parkcity's washroom after the very filling Ramadhan buffet!

Group shot of the night! With Ivan, Arthur, Aizzat & Daphne!

While being part of a big crowd was something popular, eventually, I find that having fewer closer friends who have been with you for years is the way to go. They'll stick by you, be there for you and are willing to be nonsensical with you. Thank God for Whatsapp Groups & Facebook chats!

Visited the UK Fun Fair after what seems like years! Managed to get two rides in before calling it a night! Crowd was huge but it was fun to just want to be all young and carefree again. Not to say that I am old now or anything but..you get the picture.

After the visit to the fair, a sad feeling washed through me for a second. After this week, I'll be leaving for my postgraduate studies in KL. By then, all of us will be separated again and it'll be so hard to gather and just catch up again. Le sigh. Distance, growing up. We just keep moving and moving.

End of melancholic thinking and such!

Getting in some early morning workout tomorrow before doing anything else so I shall turn myself in for the night.

Till then.
