Inspiration..瘦得了

Yesterday was my last session with my Personal Trainer. After the session, she did another overall assessment for me. The result was very positive and inspiring. After 8 weeks of training, my Fat Loss analysis was 2.5%. She said it is a very good overall result.

Weight wise, I lost about 4kgs. I am very happy with the result. Besides feeling healthier, I can also feel that my stamina is getting better. Also I am more familiar with the usage of gym equipments and not be intimidated by those heavy weights zone…hee : P

All these are very inspirational to me and I will encourage myself to continue with the effort and trainings. Hopefully, in another 8 weeks time, I can be closer to my ideal Fat percentage.

Currently at home, Adrian is also very into weight management and he does regular exercises. We kept each other motivated.

Food intake wise, we also cut down on fried items and carbohydrates. Previously our tingkat delivery includes 2 packet of white rice, since mid January 2008, I have reduced it a one packet.

Now our family of 4 is surviving on 1 packet of rice. The children still eat their normal portion of the rice. I will share my portion with Adrian... : P

So far, we are doing quite well with the new rationing…ha-ha.

With Chinese New Year just round the corner and all the feastings coming up, must really be very discipline.

Ready-Set-Go

Since the closing down of the Community Club Gym near my workplace in January 2007. I have been sourcing around for another gym to do my lunch time exercises, but till date, no results.

Places that i had considered :

a) Safra Gym - a bit far and also to join the gym, i have to apply as a Safra spouse members. Also when we viewed the gym, the person in charge told us Safra will be closed for 18 months for renovation. So i did not sign up.

b) ClubFit (sport complex) - too few equipments and a bit crowded at lunch time. So did not sign up.

c) California Fitness - too pricey and also distance a consideration.

Recently a colleague of mine mentioned that there is a gym in a Club house near our office. To join the gym, we need a staff from the organisation to refer us to become a social member.

Lucky for me, Aunty SK works in this organisation, so immediately, i contacted her to ask her for the favor. Without any hesitant, she refers me and today at lunch time, i signed up for the gym. I am very happy to have find this new place as i simply misses my lunch time exercises.

I enjoy my weekly swim but somehow it does not give me the kind of satisfaction as gym.. : )

So next week onwards, i will be able to resume my hobby again. I really thanks my guarding angels for answering my prayers again.

Another good news - California Fitness is having a roadshow at our office next week and they are offering staff a really good Plentinum membership fees for a year. I am considering to sign up... 好事成双...hee : )

Mini Mooncake Bazzar

There is a mini moon cake bazzar in the office today and a few Branded mooncakes were at the event. I bought a box of mooncakes from Raffles Hotel at a good discount of 25%. The packaging is very nice and they have various flavour - Baked mooncakes with Pine Nuts,Macadamia Nuts and White Lotus paste.
