Depressing =( , yet Motivating Result! =)

Remember I told you on my previous post that I've made my vow to reduce my weight from 85kg to 75kg, yesterday? After 5 months of going to gym, surprisingly my weight is no longer 85kg!!! Bad news is, my weight increased from 85kg to 89kg!!! O.O FATTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What the... heck? I think I know why. I was in holiday mood, and I skipped gym from early October to early November! I usually go to gym 3 times per week, on alternate days (Monday, Wednesday and Friday)! Right, I was told not to go gym on consecutive days as my body would need rest before commencing the next session.

Okay, increasing weight doesn't necessarily mean increasing body fat percentage. It could mean increase in muscle mass but decrease in body fat percentage. But my case is totally the opposite!!!!!!!!! What the!!! How could that happen? My body fat percentage increased and my muscle mass decreased back to square one (before joining the gym). How how howwwww??? That's absurd.

Before joining the gym, I hardly could lift any heavy object. Now I can, so obviously my muscle mass should have increased by time. Before joining the gym, I could hardly push up for 10 times! Now I can push up for 25 times straight! Before joining the gym, I could hardly lift anything heavy during workout! Now I can! Hard to believe I know, but it happened. =(

Never mind, my aim still remains the same! I will try very very hard and my best to reduce my weight to 75kg! That's my vow! Although it would be much harder for me to reduce 14kg than 10kg, I WILL TRY MY BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But I will make an amendment on my vow by changing the time period from 2 months to 3 months instead, shall we? okay DEAL! That's my promise to myself and I will try my best not to break it.

How? Stop eating oily food!!! Not even a single oily food is permitted! Even if I really want to eat oily food, it should be good fat but not the bad fat. Good (unsaturated) fat can be obtained from egg yolks, low fat milk, olive oil, etc. The others, forget about it. I shall go to gym more frequent too. Weight training sessions on Monday, Wednesday and Friday, and only cardio exercise on Tuesday and Thursday. Deal! =p

Penning Down Thoughts

I never had the habit of journaling, and it was never my thing. You see, I had a hard time polishing my language skills. Having grown up and educated in a Chinese primary school and surrounded by Chinese-speaking community at least two third of my life, I had the tendency to speak and think in Chinese. English was out of my realm of mastery. Mandarin Chinese is my mother tongue after all. Ironically I have been widely misunderstood as being a 'banana' - a Chinese who only speaks English. It seems I do have a 'banana' look. I have been told that I speak and write English better than my Chinese sentences, which the latter often seems to be awkward and to some extent, trying too hard. Can't really blame me right? I have not been consistently writing Chinese for the past 10 years. But this is blatantly deceiving! My English proficiency has not always been acceptable. Reading back my blog posts even just 5 years ago brought myself to embarrassment. In short, I d

What Owning a Turbocharged Car has Taught me

If there is a single word that can sum up what owning a turbocharged car for the past one and a half year has taught me, it will be this — humility . I have quite a number of people telling me my car is cool, fast and what not. But instead of getting all boasted up, I can't help but to be humble at my slow car. Slow car? You wondered. For a hot hatch making well above 234 horses on the wheel with 270Nm torque, this Neo turbo boosting 1-bar (14.5 psi) is producing more than double a stock Neo CPS is making. This is certainly not a slow car by any conventional family car standard. But with this comes a hefty price, in terms of time and money. The maintenance cost is not cheap, as it is the case with any other turbocharged car. Turbocharged vehicles are more prone to component failures just simply by the fact that there are a lot more things that can fail within the complex system, as compared to a much simpler naturally aspirated mode. I have educated myself with how a

2 Weeks Experiences in The New Class! =)

Listening to: The more I seek You - Kari Jobe It's been two weeks since I joined the new class! Most, if not all, of my new classmates are quite friendly to me, gratefully! Thank God for that! Within the first few days I've recognised and remembered most of my classmates' names! =p Okay to be frank, I was trying to memorise. That's why I could remember their names fast, and blend into their group easily? =) How? Facebook does the trick! Adding someone into your friend list in Facebook will definitely improve your ability to remember names. Well it works for me, at least! =p Okay why am I keep writing posts about PE1? I don't know, just want to share my thoughts with everyone, how I spend my time in the new class and so on. During break time I tend to hang out with a group of new friends, and a large portion of them were from Catholic High School, PJ. Haha I was supposed to go there, but I didn't. My younger sister did, anyway. Most of them tend
