Today's Update - 29th of December 2006

what a bad day...woke up in the morning....alr late for class.....when i was to open my car's door...suddenly i found out that something's wrong with my car's mirror... shocking.gif

my mind was thinking..."don't tell me the car's mirror got smashed AGAIN!! "...
last month, the left one was smashed by a gang of malay guys.. vmad.gif what drives me mad was...they took away my coins which is less than RM2 + a stack of pirated CDs..and made me pay RM100 for the mirror!!

and today the same thing happened...probably a lorry passed by and the stone accidentally kena my window or something like that.. paid RM110 for the window... mad.gif ...sial

Workout
will do my workout later...maybe in the evening or at nite...wanted to do it after class but i was so sleepy...only slept for 3 hours last nite..so decided have a good sleep before workout or else no energy...

did my workout@7pm with PT
- warm up 10 mins
- interval training@treadmill (speed from 8.5 increase to 9.2) 15 mins
- rowing machine 15 mins (PT not feeling well so we stopped half way)

so i did weight training alone...
- chess press (5 & 7.5 kg) - 2 sets 18 & 16 reps
- upper back (7.5kg) 2 sets 18 & 16 reps
- lat machine - low pulley (3.75 & 5 kg)
- lat machine - high pulley (5 & 6.25 kg)
- leg curl (12.5 & 15 kg) - 2 sets 18 & 16 reps
- leg extension (12.5 & 15kg) - 3 sets - 15 reps
- abench - 1 set (50 reps) 2 sets (30 reps)
- cross training 15 mins
- walking for 10 mins
- interval training@treadmill AGAIN (to test whether i can do it at higher speed or not..set it at 5.5 & 9.2)

the last 3 cardio i just do it out of fun.. sweat.gif

Meals

9.30am - 1 sip of full cream milk + 4 pieces of Susu Tiger biscuits. (was late for class so only manage to take a sip)
10.30am - one small Fuji apple
12.30 - 2 pieces of Tiger Susu biscuit (was waiting my car to be fixed at the accessories shop. my stomach started to 'make noise')
1.30 - green leafy veges + ard 8 small pieces of chicken (ta pau 1)
4.00 - one small Fuji apple
5.00 - (pre workout meal) 9 spoons of rice + steamed egg + 1 hot dog
10.30 - (post workout meal) - boiled cabbage + 1 hot dog

finally my FIRST 6 meals a day.... biggrin.gif

So this is how my vege portion normally looks like..

But yea shadowjass you're not eating enough. But then we dont now how big is your food portion - say, oat and milk (how much oat and how much milk?).

I used to not to eat certain veges at all too (only cabbage and maybe sawi and kangkung)  but then I vowed to change my eating habit because 10 years ago I didnt even like soy milk, unflavoured milk, mushrooms and cheese and I'm eating them almost everyday now - so I knew that I'm adaptable enough to force myself to like certain things biggrin.gif
*
erm...oat abt 4-5 tablespoon (dry) + approx 20-30ml of milk + a bit of sugar....actually i take it with milk just to make the oat taste better...
last time used to take oat without adding fresh milk but i use sweetened condensed milk...
now i substitute the condensed milk with low fat milk + sugar...

Wahhh that's reaaaaaally tiny sweat.gif 20-30ml of milk are you sure? Not 200-300ml? For sugar i'd suggest Splenda but since it's not sold in Msia (I hv to buy mine fr US supplement store sweat.gif) substitute it with low-cal sweetener or honey. Or you can take oat with HL milk. HL milk is very sweet and vanilla-ish already so you may not need the extra sugar wink.gif

Good job on not taking it with condensed milk!

Condensed milk = sugar + milk solids + PALM OIL sweat.gif.

Dont believe it? Check the label tongue.gif
*
yah...it's 20-30 ml of milk...coz i add hot water also..the fresh milk is to make the oat taste better only...
last time my slimming centre used to ask me to take PLAIN oat...only oat with hot water....yucks...i cant swallow it...feel like vomitting... sweat.gif
my dad doesnt allow me to take low-cal sweetener...it's bad for health (published in da newspaper b4)...there was once i bought EQUAL...he asked me to throw it away.. sweat.gif
maybe i shud try out with honey or HL milk next round...

Why must add sugar to your oats? Can't just eat oats with milk or you're just having a sweet tooth?

honestly..theres many ways for a full and good breakfast..and theres many types of healthy and good food...

if i get lazy...what i usually do is i eat about 8 eggs + banana...enough protien and carbs to last till the next intake of  food...sometimes just eggs..but i am able to workout and do everything as normal...and when i get tired..i just pop in some milk chocs to keep the sugar level..depends on how u eat i guess...but thats how i do it...

works for me...
*
shocking.gif shocking.gif shocking.gif ...8 EGGS ?! it can last me for 2 weeks.. sweat.gif now i know how bodybuilder eats... sweat.gif

i sedom take bananas...let's say 1 bunch got 8-10 bananas...means i can only finish the whole bunch after 8-10 days...normally the bananas will turn black after 2-3 days..

chocs?? drool.gif ...yummy.. too bad i CANNOT take chocs at the moment... cry.gif

Oats + a dash of kaya works for me, but I usually take just plain oats with hot water (instant type). Just have to get used to it...heck I don't even add anything else to Milo other than hot water.

milo is different thing ler...alr have sugar inside...i can take plain milo also...
my dad always complains that milo is too sweet...he does not like sweet stuffs...i should learn from him... sweat.gif

biggrin.gif biggrin.gif You really sound like me when I first started my journal. But dont fret if you dont lose anything. They're just numbers. You WILL look good in a year's time and keep the weight off if you maintain the momentum wink.gif 10kg in 2 months is pretty tough to achieve if you ask me, but if you manage to lose 5kg also you'd notice the difference in the mirror.

The best decision you've ever made (besides bidding goodbye to slimming centres and joining a gym instead) was to post ur journal in a public forum. You're getting all the support and advice u need and that's pretty great right wink.gif

Just dont look back. Or fall off the wagon (guilty here blush.gif)

icon_rolleyes.gif

Lol...most girls are like me...wanna lose weight FAST.. doh.gif ...if not losing anything isnt that a bit TOO dissapointing... sad.gif ...this is when most people fall out...give up and demotivated unless one have very strong mentality and alwaz think of the bringht side...i think i better be more prepared for the worst outcome...don't hope so high so that i won't fall badly... unsure.gif

ya...agree...having a journal here is definately a great idea...have greater motivation... rclxms.gif hope i have the strength and determination to carry on and stay long...lack of self-discipline + confidence.... doh.gif

grumble.gif i m the only girl in my family (beside my mum)...and unfortunately i m the FAT one...furious: ...all my brothers are like stick thin...eat also wont grow fat one...even my mum n dad are slim...(what could be worse than this?! haha).... sad case dry.gif shakehead.gif

Whaaaaaaaaat blush.gifI'm still 'hacking' my way to the hole. Still a gym newbie biggrin.gif biggrin.gif

Anyway I had my PT too, but he's a bodybuilder and knew next to nothing about weight-losing diet for female. I did my own research on the best diet for me (still tweaking). But that didnt mean that he was a waste of $$. He's a free-weights believer too so I was taught to say farewell to the machines quite early brows.gif

I arranged myself the structure of my last few sessions with him. So he followed MY schedule brows.gif and corrected me on my posture. I printed my journal (with all the rant) and update him every 2 weeks.  So far so good smile.gif He's happy with my determination & progress and I'm happy with his availability to teman me @ the gym. Working out alone can be so boring sometimes yawn.gif.
*
actually FF apply a rule where PTs are not suppose plan any diet/menu for their clients...coz they're PT but not qualify as a dietician unless the PT has got diploma/degree in food nutrition. Otherwise, balance and healthy eating..

how frequent is ur PT session? once a week? once every fortnight??
ya...sounds like u've got a good PT.... thumbup.gif

yeah its important to see results to keep you motivated  smile.gif

but losing weight is easy,
turning into a fat burning machine is difficult but much more worth ur while. 
i've managed reduce my waist size ( after a couple of weeks of dieting and by dieting i mean tapering and cycling my carbs) with barely any weight loss which goes to show fat loss does not always equal weight loss or vice versa
sounds like u've got a good PT
hmm but i dont find working out alone in the gym boring
can always chat with the ppl there
*
wow...glad to hear that...ya, i agree that FAT loss is what mattters...not the KGs...

lol...dun dare to talk to anyone there... blush.gif ...most ppl there r doing their own stuffs except for some aunties..the most important is to have my headset with me while doing cardio...can divert my attention...
unfortunately i LOST mine !! gonna get myself a new one later....this is the 2nd time i lost my things at FF...1st time forgot to take my REDKEN shampoo after bath... vmad.gif the shampoo costs me RM42 and i use it less than 5 times! cry.gif
can't the members be more 'kind-hearted' ...sure the owner will come n look for it wert.. shakehead.gif it happened to me few times...BUT i din even bother to take their shampoo... sweat.gif
