No pain, no gain- A Healthier Lifestyle [Update #4]

So coming up for my third week for my summer workout and I have to say that I am a bit disappointed with myself. Recently, I haven't been working out much. There are many distractions taking place and so many college work to catch up on that I have been lacking so much in my workout. Although I haven't been working out much, I did manage to eat a much more healthier diet. For the past week I have eaten less rice (one cup at max) and have gotten much more nutritious and healthy food in my diet. I also found the perfect place for me to get these kind of food at Holland & Barrett.  My favourite snack that I have bought so far from the week has got to be chickpeas. They are super healthy and you can get a wide range of different flavours. I have also tried out eating porridge everyday. That's all for the update.

Anyways, this week my aim is to workout everyday. I hope you wish me luck.

I am DETERMINED.

No pain, no gain- A Healthier Lifestyle [Update #3]

Everyone has their drawbacks and failures and this week has got to be my downfall week. I started to exercise and eat a healthy diet during the start of the week and gradually started to fade off my healthy lifestyle. I converted into eating great amounts of food and didn't do any exercise at all. The weight that I lost have probably been gained. Since I was busy with other activities I lost track of my diet. By tomorrow, I am going to start back again and this time I have learnt my lesson. No matter how good food can be always remember that it will just convert into fat so you have to be mindful of the things that you put into your body. I know that I can do this I just need to motivate myself again and control what I eat. Starting tomorrow, I will start my exercise again and focusing on eating a health nutritious diet, not eating too many carbohydrates and glucose. This week was my downfall but I'm ready to get up and start again. I am determined for Week Three although I am counting this a reset button so technically it will be my second week still. I will do this, not for anyone else but for MYSELF.

No pain, no gain- A Healthier Lifestyle [Update #2]

Hello everybody! [Update]

As you may know by reading this blog I started my summer workout. It was challenging at first to begin with since I love and crave food so much but I eventually am getting the hang of it. When I first started Jillian Micheal's 30 Day Shred DVD I couldn't even do five minutes of it. I was very unfit and was always tired. Doing college work plus all the exercise and eating right didn't fit in. However, if you are determined to do something I think the best motto to use is "No pain, no gain" . I am fully determined to do this workout. I know that it will be tough but reading articles about how people, just like me, lose a lot of weight made me feel better. Also, I have recently  subscribed to getleanin12. His videos really helped me a lot and I got to learn a few tips along the way with him. Below I have put a link to a few of his videos that really made me workout much more and I learnt a few little tricks in losing wight faster, without all chemicals and pills. Just pure determination and set goals. I have also set out a long term goal for my weight loss plan and a short term and currently have not broken my 6pm rule (no eating after six).

The results of my workout

Since I have just started this new lifestyle of mine. I cannot really see any difference by looking at the scale just yet. However, I see a LOT of positive changes with regards of my endurance. I am able to do a lot more workout now because my body is slowly adapting to the workout. Also, I am more resilient to unhealthy food and I am trying not to eat after six PM. Writing down what I eat every day has really boosted my workout as I know what I am eating and this helps me in controlling, cutting down or stopping any food that I know is bad for me. There has been quite a few times when I was tempted but I know I will not back down on this. 

I am DETERMINED.
