My Fitness Journey

Hi everyone, finally I'm back to here to blog again (other than advertorial). I found that now I'm kinda lazy to share my personal life compared to last time. I was so hard working to blog at least once a week. Haha. I was actually hesitating whether want to write this post or not but finally I made up my mind and it's yes!! 

So obviously as you see from the title, today I'm gonna share with y'all my fitness journey. Basically I started to join Jatomi (a fitness club located in Gurney) in the beginning of July. It's almost two month I workout at there. I still remember when I was a fresh graduate from my high school I wanted to join Celebrity (previous fitness club before Jatomi) but I wasn't allowed. :/ Till then Jatomi is opened and heard that they are a low cost fitness club so I decided to join after enquiring for all the informations. I signed up for 1 year contract packages that comes with towel which is really convenient because I'm that lazy to bring my own towel every time. Freaking heavy especially after bathe and it takes a lot of space. 

I go to workout every single day unless I'm busy. I think I only skip less than 5 times from the date I joined. Mostly because I paid for the money every month, (I don't wanna waste my money by just paying it for fun) and also because I really want to achieve a fit, healthy, lean body. So below are the pictures I took in the locker room aka restroom. 


 The bottom is H&M short pant and after wearing once I lost it. -.-

 Sweat more pls!!


 The most recent pic.

What made me so determined and motivated to get fit? I guess is because I'm really sick with my own flabby tummy, big thigh, shaky arms, bloated face...I found that my self esteem and also confidence getting lower and lower year by year. (Because I keep gaining weight) Especially when it comes to CNY, everyone was dressed up nicely and of course so do I. But I just look not so good with my chubby body. And I tend to avoid taking much pictures with my sis since 3 of them are soooooooooo skinny. I really have no idea why I'm being so fat and eat non-stop. I used to be skinny too! LOL I think this is the major reason that motivate me. 

Besides work out, I also started to eat healthy, and no I'm not dieting. The main goal for me for now is to lose fats, so in order to lose weight what you actually have to do is clean eating which also means eating healthy. Most of the ppl thought that if you want to lose weight you have to do a lot of cardio. Yes you need to do cardio but the main factor that will make you lose weight is clean eating. I've browsed a lot of stuff about healthy recipe and trying to make it myself too. Below are the foods what I've been eating lately. 

 Dragonfruit and kiwi with a drizzle of honey. 

 Mixture of plain yogurt and apple. My all time favourite for dinner!

 Toasted whole grain bread topped slice banana and sprinkle some cinnamon. Milk on side. My fav snacks or pre workout meal!

 Oats and also other ingredients. My everyday breakfast. 

 I also learnt from web on how to cook pasta! It's so yummy and it's guilt-free! 

 Usually when I'm going out for a long time, I will made myself a yoghurt meal so that I can bring along. 
I used empty container to put my yoghurt and also other ingredients. 

 Heated banana sprinkled with cinnamon. 

 Yoghurt with fruits and muesli. I loveee muesli. 


So if you love my post pls let me know by comment below or you'd like me to blog more about my fitness journey pls let me know too! I'd love to hear from you guys!! xx 


KEEP CALM AND WORK OUT.

Gartien Pineapple Cakes

Advertorial 

In this upcoming Mid-Autumn Festival, Gartien has launched its new limited edition packaging for this auspicious accasion. The official launch of the limited edition new packaging was on last Saturday in Goh Kaki and I was honoured to be invited for this soft launch. :))

Goh Kaki 五脚基
34 & 36, Lebuh Bushop, Georgetown, Penang. 


 Spot something??



Gartien was founded in Penang by a young chap who came up with his own recipe for the pineapple cake using the freshest local pineapples and the best ingredients for the shortbread pastry. All ingredients used to make this are natural and without any added preservatives.

 Each box comes with 10 pieces.


In fact I was never a fan of pineapple cakes but this 'little piece of Penang' has changed my mind! It's an aromatic, crumbly buttery shortbread on the outside and the satisfying taste of real pineapple inside. Awesome!!



Thanks for the goodies! 

 Take these Gartien Pineapple Cakes, a little piece of Penang home with you today!! 

Grab it fast because it's limited edition! Share with loved ones and friends for this Mid-Autumn Festival. You can get it from Gartien main outlet. 

Address: 68, Lorong macalister, 10400 Georgetown, Penang.
