Fine and Dandy

My update is super late since our weight loss challenge ended last week. Anyhow, I can still clearly remembered our 7th weigh-in. Are you familiar with the 5 stages of grief? The stages where you got into a break-up or loss of a loved one? These are: Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression and Acceptance. I got this one while watching the RomCom K-Drama "My Love from Another Star" (haha!). Well, it was somehow relevant to this post. My point here is, I am depressed! I have gained .8 to my previous weight! waaaaaaaa. I've seen it coming though. I was totally reckless and I know it was totally my fault, my FAULT *cries* . The thought of gaining a little weight is so depressing to me. I should be thankful that it was just .8, right? I should do better next time. Fighting!Fighting!Fighting!Fighting! Never ever give up!!! a little something to cheer myself up. http://fitnesstreats.tumblr.com/post/29396922620

Yay! The 6th week weigh-in was great! I've lost a total of 1.2 lbs weeeeeeee I wasn't expecting that. And Oh, I pretty messed up my week today, I was idle and I feel so blue. We will have our 7th weigh-in tomorrow and I am nervous already waaaaah, anyway, fingers crossed* Not relevant to this post but I better share it. I've been like this hmm I mean, I can relate to this.  http://pleasestopbeingsad.tumblr.com/post/71227952558

I am so happy that finally I have lost 2 lbs on our fifth weigh-in. *progress is progress* I remembered last time I did not lose weight. My current weight now is 128.4 lbs and my weight before I started this challenge was around 136.4 lbs, so I have lost a total of 8 lbs already which is a total of 4kgs. weeeeeeeee I am super happy! I have a meal plan but you know sometimes I can't follow it because of food shortage hahaha! we are not rich, ya'know. But I always opt to healthy alternatives like protein rich food: eggs and tuna (sardines). Plus, I have crazy cravings once in a while which I blame to hormonal changes or maybe, I just lack discipline. hehe  Here's a sure way to resist my cravings. I will, I mean I should try to remember this 4 Ds. http://fitnesstreats.tumblr.com/post/80673152400

Yay! 4th week had passed and I was really anxious of my result. The thing here, I forgot to be mindful with my eating habits (i'm trying to). I was having fun chatting with a very dear friend at their house (since I have to attend a General Assembly of Ficco and she's also a member), and when we had our lunch, I forgot I shouldn't eat "lechon". Gaaaaah! It was a Sunday and I considered it to be my cheat day (eat lots of YOLO meals, hahaha!). Anyway, when I got a chance to visit the office, I hurriedly went to the Nutrition Club to check my fat % and weight. I was super relieved that I just gained .4 to my weight and .8 to my fat %, but I still have to get rid of it. Amazingly, after the 4th weigh-in last Saturday, I retained my current weight. I did not lose nor gain pounds!Yeheeeey! I have to take this mindful eating seriously, It's hard to maintain a new habit, shifting my mindset and getting out of my comfort zone. I know I can do it, but it is hard when y...

My 3rd week of this challenge is fine. I'm still proud that I have lost 2 lbs. It wasn't the way I wanted it to but it's still a progress. I have done well this week, I make sure to exercise 5x/day through cardio. Maybe because I have had refined carb consumed this week, I felt lethargic after eating it actually, I shouldn't eat sweets and refined carbs!!!! I will look for more ways to burn these restored fats. I'll make sure these fats will weep. I still have 5 more weeks to go! I've messed up my plan this week ugh! I will make it up, I have to!!!! http://teenshealthandfitness.tumblr.com/post/79854511114/life-of-pie-teenshealthandfitness-tumblr-com.

Yay!The week had gone by so fast. The 2nd week was over and I'm guilty that I have only lost .4 to my previous weight. I've been to the office this week so I was really busy, super busy that I forgot to update my challenge. Anyway, here's an update: Drink Herbalife Smoothie and follow strictly my program - I've been drinking my smoothie every morning, my day is not complete without it really. I have managed to have smoothie bfast for 2 weeks straight. yehey! Ive been trying to follow my program however I've been to the office and temptations are everywhere. I can feel that my period is coming so I was craving for siomai, japanese siomai to be exact. I have fed myself with lots of "bawal".  No sweets, bread and sodas - I managed to have no sodas for 2 weeks straight now. I managed to hold myself on bread and sweets haha! I am so proud of myself. My father would always bought bread, my family love simple carbs and I can't do anything about it.  Dr...

I have been a huge fan on vintage outfits (i don't know why?), I'm such an old soul. While looking for outfit icons, I've found these amazing and lovely women who knock-out their outfit each day. Ever since then, I have followed and read their blogs whenever I can and just look at their vintage outfits. I would love to be one of them. I wanted to be a vintage lover like them, vintage with a touch of fresh modern style. I have been looking for more vintage outfits on thrift shop here in our place, I've found a lot! I actually bought three vintage dresses from a thrift shop and made slight modifications to it. I actually wore the two vintage dresses already but I'm too shy to post my outfit here hehe, maybe next time.  Annika Victoria from  http://www.pineneedlecollective.com/ . Who wouldn't love her? I mean, she's super smart and talented. She even sew her own dresses, she's brilliant! Below are some outfits that I love. You can visit her blog or he...
