Two Weekend Good News
Written on my Starbucks journal for October 5, 2013 was "Learn something new today." As the day rises, I idly wondered what would it be for me. A new word? Or a new core workout? Saturday progresses and I was off to hit the gym after lunch. As I was to park Kobe, a tiny voice inside me encouraged me to do reverse parking.To give a background, I am far from being an excellent driver , I still consider myself a newbie on this field. Hanging roads and unfamiliar streets and curves continue to make me quite apprehensive. With regards to parking, I simply do the forward manner and if ever you caught Kobe parked reversely that's because no cars were in front and there are multiple gaps of parking spaces in between.
Back to yesterday, as I listened to the voice, I opted to give it a try. I tried to stay calm and very very carefully maneuvered the wheels. There were two cars at my opposite sides and there is no room for extra space across my chosen lot. And to my surprise, Kobe was quenched in between the two sedans successfully. Oh my gosh!!! Inside the car, I really gasped with amazement with what I just did, I screamed with delight. My first time to hit such move and hopefully this will continue.:)
Still giddy with my parking skills, soon as I entered the gym, I asked Elai, my former trainer to please check my weight. I keep mum about it but I noticed remarkable looseness with my jeans. Elai took the data and yippee, yippee!!! I lost 2 KILOS, from 49 kg to 47; my muscle mass increased; fat mass decreased by 22% and this I love- my metabolic rate before hitting the gym months back was for a 29 year old lady. Now it's for a 23 year old one!!! Clap, clap for me.!! Haha! Iam now more motivated to step on the treadmill, lift some weight, perform planking though it still makes me blush. I will continue to dance to Dennis' Zumba steps, and play badminton at the university.
I will still not put myself on a rigid and bland diet. Food remains to be a constant love. I however vow to keep on creating smoothies. I'm smug with the changes, I can't help but say I'm sexy and I know it!!LOL!! Truth to tell, there is still a lot to be done to achieve my desired body figure. Besides what is more important is I remain to be well and fit. Never mind the Victoria's Secret models and show biz lasses.
With these two great discoveries, it is indeed a good good weekend for me!!:)
How's your weekend?:)
