The D word: Part Deux

I am so sorry but I need to rant. I went on the weighing scale and noticed I "gained" weight cause I just had a meal, and don't you just hate it when you get a food baby or that you gain 2 kgs just because you had lunch?? Ok fine, not as much as 2 kg but more than the night before! I am obsessed with weighing myself, everyday, few times a day and the thing is that my weighing scale shows different measurement each time ranging with an error from 0.2 to 0.6 kg.


So.... I have been hitting the gym a lot lately just because I can, I swear my back muscles are either torn or whatever cause it hurts like a motherfucker and I want to die everytime I try to wear a bra. I got stuck in my sports bra cause it was too painful to stretch my arms to remove it -_-

But I like the pain. Pain is good, pain makes you stronger!!! I can see my stamina improving, from stopping half way to get water and to rest a little or at least catch a proper breath, to no stopping and I had just jogged 3 miles prior to the class!! :D PROGRESS!!!


Progress makes me happy :) I feel happy, but so so so tired. SO TIRED. I don't know how these people do it. They are so energetic even after like... I dunno, 7 tracks and they can still jump like a starfish and stretch like some rubber band. siao. But Kowtow to that!!!


NOWWWWW, to perfect my pushup. I can never do pushups to save my life and how does one, push yourself so low T____T I can't even angle my elbows properly wtf I feel like my arm's about to break -_- Neeeee I have become those person that whenever I thought about going to the gym, I actually feel excited!! :D



Someone save my knees thanks.

Who do you think you are!

PETER ALEXANDER DOG!!! :D I don't know what breed it is, but I usually call it "sausage dog" or is it a Dachshund? And how do you exactly pronounce Dachshund? Dash-hun? haha So cute and he was sniffing my legs wtf -_- Just some random pictures from Melbourne. Something of what I relate to Melbourne. Cute dogs, Pho, super kao milk coffee, tram stops (tram 20 was near where I lived previously in the city)


Losing mojo to blog lately. So much is happening but yet I don't feel like facing anything. Like literally ANYTHING. Some good news to announce soon, at least it is for me. Nothing to do with a job. Still hunting, still searching, still lost, still uncertain.



Question of the day:
You may comment anonymously, who do you think you are? Tell me something.

Smooth-ie

I wish I can italicize the title to emphasize the smoothness haha

ANYWAY I have been trying different recipes of smoothie just so I can make full use of my blender! (it's awesome did I tell you??) You just chuck things in and turn the thing on and it freaking blends, technology. I have no idea WHY I haven't gotten one years ago. HEH

Please take note that I'm using Valencia oranges, apparently it's best for making orange juice but the pulp tasted horrible, it's bitter.

Recipe #1
Banana Carrot Orange Honey Muesli Shake
Pretty much sums up whatever I have in it.

1 carrot
2 oranges
2 bananas (medium ones the one we have in KL is pathetic or if your in Aus, 1 large banana will do)
2 tbs Honey to taste
1/4 cups of mix muesli or oats

Chuck in and blend. This, tasted quite awesome, just that it's like baby food, but you have to chew wtf.

Recipe #2
Orange Mango smoothie

3 oranges
1/2 cup mango yogurt (I'm using the small pack of Yoplait mango, taste fantastic)

Need I say more? Taste like mango pudding (minus the bitter pulp blergh). Yum.


Recipe #3
Banana Strawberry Shake

3 medium bananas
1/2 cup strawberry yogurt (Yoplait Strawberry yogurt!)
1 cup milk

yum. I love strawberry banana shake!!! Would have been better if there were fresh strawberries

Recipe #4
Orange Mango smoothie

2 oranges
1/2 mango
1 tbs honey

this one was major thick. But I can feel the awesome fibers in my drink, so thick it's like eating a mango


Yeap these are the recipes I've tried!! All recipes are enough to serve 2 major cups :D (for me and manny). I still can't get the consistencies right but feck that it taste awesome to me so YES. :D Have this as breakfast everyday and erm, well I don't see any weight loss but I feel good cause I love drinking smoothie and I don't have to pay for overpriced Boost juice :D


Seriously all you need is a fridge load of fruits, yogurt, milk and a blender. :D I'm gonna stock up on Berries next :D Antioxidants anyone?? :D

And here are some pictures of some really unhealthy but yummy desserts. I love contradictions :)

And here's a picture of a gorgeous woman to make your Monday more blue.

HAPPY MONDAY. x

I'm just gonna sit there and be a lady.

I fucking want this. like OMG it's the perfect bimbo shade of pink with the perfect stitchings, and the perfect size (but cannot fit my camera cause the opening is SO SMALL that if you are a real LADY you wouldn't mind but I'm a barbarian (roar) so yes, it took me about 1 minute to try to figure out how to put my hands in it and take it out (cause my hands got stuck in it meh). Would you like to fund my PS1 and my Lady Dior now????

So yah, recent purchases. So far... these are the only shit I got since I return (my so called Melbourne withdrawal excuse no longer applicable T_T) excluding groceries wtf

dress from Zara

Shoes from Topshop. They had this double points when you spend above RM300 thing, plus 10% discount + RM25 voucher so it comes up to about 20% off the original price. Last pair in my size and I have been dreaming about these shoes since god knows when so yes I got them. *heart* And I just realise it just goes with any outfit!!!! :D Happy >:)

This one is in the process of being processed cause I'm getting my love to get it for me (but I pay her back) BECAUSE there is so much trouble to go through to get this cause to buy in US you need an US issued card to make a purchase online and blablabla hurricane whirlwind slash drama, I hope they'll be sending it soon!!!! :) Mine's in BLUE! :D

lipstick post ahead. I am too lazy to take pictures hehe. I say ahead but it might not be the next post. huhu

You can't have no music in a diner!

Was on "adventurous" mode during my last week in Melbourne. I travelled everyday for a consecutive 6 days (with metcards to prove! god that cost me so much!) and thought to myself "fuck that, I'm leaving soon". So Misty's it is. For some greasy American food :D

It was my first (and possibly last time since I left) time at Misty's and I love the vibe. Very vibrant, colourful, like a typical diner you see in any American show!! Bright lights, bright colours, bright chairs. Cept they didn't ask if I'd like some coffee haha :P I can tell that the owners love Marilyn Monroe and Elvis Presley cause their pictures are plastered everywhere!!! Tiny details like Jukebox at the side of your table, the display of candies and lollies, and the PHONE!! Right next to the corridor to the washrooms, so old school. And PINK! :P The waitresses were wearing some tutu skirts underneath their aprons, with a Poodle printed on! :D

First up DRINKS!!! Katie suggested me to try the thick shakes there. I wasn't disappointed at all!! IT WAS AWTHUM!!!




Rootbeer float (can't get any less American than that haha and I love rootbeer omnomnom). Peanut Butter Fudge thickshake. OMG this is JIZZZ I have been raving to everyone about this and it is SO GOOD. It is so rich but not guilt inducing at all cause it's not thick like caramel to suck on, and yet certain times you'll sip chunks of chocolate fudge. ORGASMIC!! And they added some Reese's peanut butter cups in it and some crunchy biscuits. SO GOOD!!!
And Summer Berries White Chocolate shake! This was good too, more "healthy" and refreshing. Don't know WHY I wrote there healthy cause obviously, white chocolate ain't that healthy hehhe


Food there was pretty decent. Portions are meant for sharing, they have platters and other mains as well!! So we ordered a "Pig-Out Platter" and the Chilli Cheese Fries. :D I personally prefer Soda Rock's chilli cheese fries cause it was more spicy? They gave us this cup of chilli oil, which I added a lot onto my serve of fries. :P LOVE THE BEANS THOUGH!!!

Pig out platter consists of Buffalo Wings, chips, wedges, meatballs, onion rings, chicken tenders and ribs. I must say, for 3 people, they were too much! Couldn't finish them!! And you know my appetite hahaha :P





Blue cheese dip, sour cream, bbq sauce, buffalo sauce and chilli oil.


Ahh, why can't they have places like this in KL? =(

The D word

As you allllll know that I'm currently on a diet and it is just so so so so hard to stick on a diet. There will be the "occasional" cham si ping (a mix of coffee and tea with ice) at the local kopitiam and maybe a set of toast or two, with butter. and kaya. KILL ME.


My 2011 resolution, main main resolution is to lose weight. No matter what it takes.


Be it only eating a cracker and loads of water a day (it works best but it's so bad for my health and metabolism, I lost like 3 kgs in like what, 3 days wtf) or that I eat medicine to eliminate oil or take laxatives. I said I would do anything.


To be honest, I have been following loads of weight loss blogs on tumblr and it feels, I don't know, such great power, rushing in my veins, when I see pictures of thin and pretty people. Following thinspo blogs, to get thinspiration of course. I don't want to be hungry-thin, I just want to lose weight. Just 15 more kgs to go and I will be happy as a smiley face. Wait, make that 14 :D

And reading tips from those health sites did enlighten me a little that, eating healthily is so important, so I stopped the minimal food and water thing. I'm having fruits and cereals and yogurts plus poultry for mains. It feels nice when you're eating veggies and not calorie loaded food. Did you know that for every pound you want to lose, you need to burn 3500 calories? I'm feeling very puzzled cause when I was at the gym in Australia, 30 minutes on the cross trainer burned about 4-500 calories depending on how vigorous I worked. But when I'm in Malaysia?? I probably only burnt like 200 calories and I am pretty sure I worked the same amount and sweat more due to the humidity and cause the gym very kiam sap didn't wanna turn up the air con. -_-

But at least I'm moving. Hopefully forward.


Back to the 1 pound 3500 calories. That means I will need to burn... 105,000 calories. That is, conservatively speaking, 525 30 minutes session on the cross trainer. Also means attending 175 1 hour sessions of Body Combat (also equivalent 175 sessions of gang rape wtf according to Wen cause body combat classes are super intense T_T).

Oh god, help me. T_T

to know that in order to burn of a piece of cake I'll need to run for an hour. How am I going to live with this?

Motivation. I've started mine already, have you?


For once, I want to do this so badly. Not for anyone, but for myself. For the first time I'm feeling empowered to do something for myself, by myself. And when I finally attain my goal, I will not only have a healthier body, mentally and physically, but also, what I have gained is confidence, self control and fulfillment. Something that money can't buy, it will not be comparable to buying a pretty pair of shoes or shopping. I want to be able to feel that. I want to have control over myself. I don't want to be the odd one out, be it in my family or among my friends, the fat one. I am sick and tired of people calling me names. I'm easily offended and when your own mother tells you that "oh you gained weight" or something demotivating, do you know how much it hurts? Or when someone is complaining about someone on a diet counting calories and that you never had to, do you know how it feels to be fat?? Having an extra burden when you walk?? It IS harder to exercise, it is very tiring, it takes more effort.

And I hope that you respect what we are going through. We don't need any more demotivating words. Enough is enough. I'm speaking for all others who are in this together.

Mangkuk

I was happily browsing Stylecaster and was reading on this article about bowl cuts. And yes, the model had to be Sasha Pivovarova and she looks fucking amazing sporting a bowl cut and her gorgeous blue eyes and a white suit. WHOAAAAAAA


And I paid a visit to Yen to touch up my horrendous roots and my brown orange shit coloured hair. hehe


Say hi to mutation!

YEAY to red hair. I secretly love red hair cause it's... shiny haha

I look very... 'tut' with the overly short straight bangs. But I'll get used to it and like it even more when it grows longer :D I've always thought to myself to get bangs when I visit Yen again. And I've heard a few of you asked her for bright RED hair :D


Yah yah screw all your negative comments. I find that negative comments are often unnecessary cause you put in so much effort to hurt someone's feelings for which you failed to do so but you did bring yourself to my attention. To hate you more. And bringing so much negativity to people and also to your life. heh. And you know what they always say!! You need positivity in your life to succeed!! Sucks to be you loser, you're gonna fail in whatever you do. =D

Melbourne Skies

Please clear this babies for me. New items updated at Boudoir-Boudoir. :) I'll laff you forever =D

My last morning in Melbourne (don't worry there are still loads of pictures from Melbourne but I miss the blue skies. Not cloudless this time, there were loads of fluffy clouds in the 9am skies. Was up early enough for some overpriced corn fritters and french toast. haha

And the newly revamped Myers. It's gorgeous... Love how all the malls in Melbourne has this "open concept" with glass window ceilings or whatever high tech name you may suggest. Especially when the skies are all blue and cloudless, prettty~~

The feeling of you going up an escalator with the glass panels by the side, I don't know the feeling is spectacular, especially when you reach a floor filled with clothes :D haha just sayinggggg..


YEAY got new oven. :))))) *rubs hands* Can't wait to try it out =*



PS: VERY IMPORTANT QUESTION!!!! I'm going to see Yen this coming Tuesday and I'm contemplating whether or not to go back red or some brown shade, cause of job hunting whatsoever but that's beside the point, hair more important wtf. Red or No Red? :)

Glutton Button

Random but a friend of mine just told me that I'm femes wtf cause her colleague knows me (or maybe more of my sisters rather than me haha) HOLLA if you know who I'm talking about so at least I am aware that you're reading but not being stalked jengjeng. I feel very.. weird when I get stares from people cause a) my skirt might be riding up on my panties wtf b) that person might be a stalker c) I'm too awesome wtf

end random rant.


Just some pictures from my Melbourne trip (so sad it's over T_T) and yes all I did was eat. Eat. then eat. and eat. ahahahaha

Pretty good Japanese food at QV. EMO cause apparently the japanese restaurant scene might be affected by the quake cause of the radiation from nuclear plants and I might not get to eat Jap food. T_T *stuffs face with tempura batter* If there is one thing out of the million things I love about Japan (the people, the flower, the food, the clothes, the makeup, the people, the babies) IT IS THE FOOD T___T All my prayers and hopefully if you all buy my shit I can donate some to the Red Cross!!!
