WORKOUT = RESULTS

im a strong believer of working out to get in shape. i believe that one should sweat it out to remove all the toxin in the body and produce more endorphins to make you and your body feel good.

i have been active since the day i can remember. i was a given the title "sportswoman of the year" for 2 consecutive years when i was in school. my life has always been associated with fitness. it runs in the family. my family would spend our free time to look for waterfalls, play badminton and tennis, trekking, play basketball and etc. anything that will make us sweat. thats how we are and that's also how we bond.

                                                              its the human wheel

recently i was given a bottle of slimming pill to be tested out, and honestly i did not see any difference on me. maybe its because im so used to seeing me the way i am and i consider myself quite slim. so seriously, i look the same to me. it probably will work differently on another person with different lifestyle....maybe. but for me, i already live in a healthy an active lifestyle so taking pills to keep me slim is something that is not in my books.

i want to say that there is no shortcuts to slimming/losing weight/get in shape. it all takes hard work. i don't believe in all these products that supposedly will help you lose weight without even  sweating it out. if someone looks slim without working out, you should ask if they are eating right or are they dieting? or they are just blessed with awesome bodies :). there are so many levels of dieting, you just need to know that whatever you do is not detrimental to your body and health. just make sure you dont skip your meals! knowing your BMI is also important to lead a healthy life.

                                                playing instruments is part of capoeira

but of course there are so many other ways to keep yourself healthy and fit. find something that you really like doing. do it with a bunch of friends because its more fun!

so i hope you will adopt a healthy lifestyle and get your body to sweat. if you want do capoeira like me, you can come to CABOCO STUDIO, 16-1 BLOCK B, ZENITH CORPORATE PARK, NO.1 JALAN SS7/26 KELANA JAYA (behind Paradigm Mall). for more info you can call 016 9711765

 and of course, dont forget to drink loads of water!

himalaya - ayurslim capsules

so i finally started on this himalaya ayurslim capsules. if you've read my last entry, you would know what this capsules do...ok la, it's a slimming pill. :P

I started last monday which was 6 days ago. the first day i took the pills, 2 in the morning and 2 at night, i did a frequent visit to the little girls room....3 times to be exact! So if you're going to try this out, make sure the first day is the day you are at home so you can have easy access to the toilet (but symptoms can be different).

it almost like it detoxified me for the first day but on the second day i was back to normal. I did feel a little difference like i had no craving for food as much. if its not lunch or dinner, i didn't feel like eating AND i get full quicker. it's great isn't it?!

but, this whole week, i have been taking the pill without working out and im seeing the difference in my eating habits... so starting tomorrow (1/4/2013) i will take the pills and workout at the same time and see what kind of results i'm going to get.

i must say, so far im liking this capsules...even though i find it really hard for me to swallow it! ( i have phobia for pills). my mission is to finish 1 bottle and try to get rid of my "love-handles" hehehehe...

luv, me.

MORE HIMALAYA!!

I'm such a sucker for beauty products. Every time i see something new, i would get excited and will try and see if it suits me. Of course, price plays a big role in what i buy too.

Himalaya products are quite awesome because they're herbal made and they're very affordable. My favourite is this one!

It does give you that fresh feeling and most importantly, it doesn't give you that "dry" and "tight" feeling after washing your face with it.

Im excited to try out this other new product. I love body lotions and since i have very dry skin, it's so difficult to find something that's not too thick in texture. I'm not a fan of that "oily and sticky' feeling, so  this body lotion is great because it doesn't give you that. It has that "homey" smell, the kind that takes you back to the time when life was so much simpler...you'd feel so comfortable especially when you go to sleep!

Let's give this one a try and see the wonders of it :)

luv, me.

Be Slim with Himalaya AyurSlim

Hey you guys!! How have you been?? Hope all is well with you! Guess what! Last week, i was called to check out Himalaya's latest product, the "AYURSLIM". As many of may you know, i am an active person and looking after my body is something very close to me, although sometimes i do get naughty and lazy to workout and such! hehehehe..

So this new product "AYURSLIM" is not like your any other sliming pills. Because its herbal made, the process  obviously will take slightly longer. Be reminded that when you take any form of slimming pill, you must include your exercise and workout schedule in it. C'mon, you cant lose it without putting any work to it....right?

Same goes with Himalaya's "AYURSLIM", when you start taking the pill, you need to compliment it with some exercise and drinking loadsa water is required too!

What it does is : - 
1) Limits fat production
- burns up fat cells and stops fat formation

2) Reduces craving for sugar ( that's helpful because its so difficult to cut down on sugar! )

3) Reduces excess cholesterol

4) It detoxifies body and has bowel cleansing action ( so if you have trouble going to the toilet, this certainly will do the trick!)

5) Blocks absorption of sugar

This pill has no reported side effects and its the safest way for you to get your ideal weight. But please remember to consult your doctor first before taking any form of pills!!

So, I am gonna give this a go and will get back to you in a couple of weeks!

luv, me.

nike+ fuelband

so just a couple of days ago, i met up with the NikeMY peeps just to catch up and get my remaining goodies from them. this new gadget i got is the best thing ever! it's called the nike+ fuelband.

why do i say it's awesome because, you don't really have to get into serious running/ or exercise mode initially. just charge the band, put it on and watch how your every move is recorded! and then from that, naturally you would want to do MORE and really get into exercising.

this fuelband lets you do any activities, from walking to lifting bags, to running, tennis, boxing, climbing the stairs, heck ANYTHING AT ALL! it records your calories, steps, fuel, and it also acts like a watch. in fact i turned my fuelband into my everyday accessory :)

you get to set an everyday goal. you will try to reach it and once you hit your goal, the excitement doesn't just stop there, you'd want to out-do yourself and set a higher goal! in a way it's like a personal cheerleader and motivator (in my opinion).

                                                                set up your device

                                                                 first time trying it out

                                              almost reaching my goal 2K not even half a day!

                           fuelly gives you a victory dance when you've reached your goal!

                                           day 2 of wearing the fuelband in just 1 1/2 hours

it looks awesome and cool right??? i really love this. slowly but surely when my knee is strong enough, i will increase my goal, work out harder and win trophies and see different dances from fuelly!

love, me.

post MRI...

so after doing the MRI, the results came back and it showed that i have a "partial patellar tendon tear". it means..my tendon just below the knee-cap has a partial tear. thank mickey its not a major thing. all i needed was a cast. but me being me..i avoided it because it was gonna restrict my movements (duh! thats why its supposed to be casted).

i ended up not using the cast, but i made sure i didn't put pressure on my right knee. the doctor said it's ok, i just need to continue with my physio and after about a month from i can slowly start with light jogging. as for my scars, it's ugly! but im putting mederma for now.

to be honest, i really cannot wait to start playing again!

love, me.

an alien invasion??

after the motorbike accident i had on Merdeka Eve, i went for an MRI. for the longest time i never knew what it meant, i didn't look it up coz i felt it wasn't necessary for me to know. hehehehe. of course that's not an excuse to not find out what it means. so now i know, MRI stands for Magnetic Resonance Imaging.

MRI was created by Dr. Raymond Damadian. he volunteered to be the test subject when nobody else wanted too. but it didn't really happen because it turned out Damadian was too big for the machine. in the end, a student voluntereed and on July 3 1977, MRI was first performed on a human being and it took almost 5 hours to produce an image.

MRI is done to diagnose brain tumors, torn ligaments, tendonitis, cancer, and strokes just to name a few. this is the best way to see the inside of someone without cutting them open! :D

before i went in i was asked questions like if i had metals in my body, if i had done a surgery and etc. i got a little bit confused when she asked about metals in my body..don't know why, maybe coz i always felt like a bionic woman with all my activities and sports...that i just dont know when to stop! (it's always important to have a balance in everything you do, i've learnt that). the procedure took about 45 minutes and that's only for my right knee! i wasn't allowed to move because just like a camera, when taken in low light and if you move, then the image will be blurred, and that means, it has to be taken again.

i was quite nervous when i was in the MRI machine. it was really noisy! it felt like an alien invasion. the sounds of the machine was kinda like a flying saucer in the movies where it just hovers above you and.... it also had like a machine gun noise! and the "bed" vibrated!

the funniest thing was after the nurse said i couldn't move, not even a twitch, she put on Savage Garden, The Wanted as the background music! now how was i suppose to keep still? i was so tempted to tap my feet! hahahaah

but jokes aside, this procedure made a hole in my pocket. RM952 was the amount i had to pay. the result will be out on Wednesday (29/09/2012) and let's hope my ligaments and tendons are fine. (fingers crossed)

luv, me.i
