It's the first time I heard from someone who's been there and done it, and truly understand what I'm going through right at this moment!! The guilt of having a slice of cake or a cup of sweet drinks, oh... boy that felt terrible. And I totally get when you say the confidence that you get, eventhough I get comments from people saying that I've lost a lot of weight but this teached me to be humble, it is just something that I am doing it for myself and actually half succeeded in doing it. And what you did was great, so healthy and gradual weight lost, it truly inspires me that rome wasn't built in a day and that there is no rush, pursuing a healthy lifestyle is a lifelong occupation, just like raising a kid, needs a whole lot of dedication :D Thank you so so muchhhhh for this comment!! <3 It meant a lot to me. :)<br /><br /><br />yy: Thank you!! Don't stress too much, you know what??? Exercising can be therapeutic too! Especially after a hard time at work/uni, run it out, sweat it, and when you stretch out and take a deep breath, it's like, Liberation. :) You can still eat chocolate bars, but try having dark chocolate instead!!! Has less sugar and milk content, and definitely less calories than normal choc bars :)mustardqueenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10990201286560954564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12145989.post-70729019093074766212011-05-12T12:23:46.596+08:002011-05-12T12:23:46.596+08:00wow, i really have a lot of respect for your deter...wow, i really have a lot of respect for your determination in sticking to your diet/exercise regime. keep it up! <br /><br />i'm trying to lose some weight/get more toned too, but whenever i get stressed, i'll start eating bars and bars of chocolate. it's so tough to resist them! but i'll learn from you.. thanks for the inspiration! :)yyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01838827036745212059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12145989.post-73070473332062692752011-05-12T09:22:10.498+08:002011-05-12T09:22:10.498+08:00Hello,
I just want to let you know that what you ...Hello,<br /><br />I just want to let you know that what you are doing is very commendable. Do not give up! You just have to keep going and once you see the results, you will know that there is no turning back. Being slim is just half of it. The confidence that it gives you is immeasurable. <br /><br />I used to be 15 kgs heavier and it took me almost a year of healthy eating and exercise. I have experienced what you are experiencing. Things like your weight being on a plateau, getting so guilty when you have that piece of cake and the constant motivation that you have to give yourself to get up and go to the gym. <br /><br />Keep it up :) everything is possible if you just put your mind to it. It will be all worth it in the end! All the best and keep going!Jesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17827839859482565569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12145989.post-75718690098361515092011-05-12T02:14:03.997+08:002011-05-12T02:14:03.997+08:00Eh you forgot to give credit to me 'cause I le...Eh you forgot to give credit to me 'cause I lent you my fitness first card and now I can't go to gym!!

Start small, slowly but surely :) All the best to you!!!! :) And tip for you, if you're going to starbucks or whatever coffee chain just ask for without syrup cause they add 3 full pumps of syrups and that's like 100 calorites D: I can't resist food myself but I try to control. :) But it'll be all worth the restrain when you step on the scale and when you get compliments :)))))mustardqueenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10990201286560954564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12145989.post-30427806972774739432011-05-11T23:25:26.935+08:002011-05-11T23:25:26.935+08:00indeed a long reply :p

It's always better late than never, just start now and I'm sure you'll be able to achieve it very very very soon! All you need really is initiative to kick start your a healthier lifestyle! :)<br /><br />I started dieting in about January but I was doing it the wrong way, I tried not eating for few days and yes I did lose a few kgs but then I gained back quickly and I was feeling like shit all the time and tired cause I was always hungry without any food fueling myself. <br /><br />Just take lean meat (fish, chicken) and try to avoid red meats. Cut down on sugar and junk food and fast food because god knows how much calories are actually in them! Always try to avoid eating out, and prepare your own meals, have lots and lots of fruits and vegetables. <br /><br />Ever since I started going to gym, attending classes and running etc, I can feel myself more toned. I'm not so worried about my weight now, but overall I just wanna look leaner and toner, I can be 70kgs but then I'm all muscles inside haha!<br /><br />Right now, I try to go running and go on cross trainer on days I don't go for the group classes. Exercise at least 3 hours a week, it should be more than enough. Eating healthy is key! :)<br /><br />I would say I started to see the results around mid april, and I started the whole healthy thing around march. But really, different people have different methods. :) Just follow a balanced diet, and try to eat brown instead of white (brown rice, brown bread etc), cut down on sugar and fast food! No sodas/ sweet drinks (although this is my weakness I cannot live without teh ais but I try to control)<br /><br /><br />phew!
