And so my fiancee was saying that there's no point writing up this blog cos there're not much of our friends that still blogged about their lives. Well, like i said before, i will use this blog as a journal to my weight loss journey and it doesn't matter if anyone reads it or not.
A few years back, i told myself. "Its not about losing weight. Its about staying in shape." Round and circle is still a shape and guess i was wrong with that perception. I've been obese all my life. Its depressing though. Can't choose all the nice clothes and even if i've gotten some nice clothes, i would turn out not looking nice in it. was thinking of joining Lose to Win but have to check if my schedule permits it.

So last night i went for my 2nd IPT(Intensive Physical Training) back in the army camp. (Yes....the Singapore government required those who used to serve in the army to be combat ready.)
I was ready to push myself as i am in the weight loss group. However, they were using us for a survey on endurance training. Basically the exercises that are required to be done under 1 min are,
-Squats
-Push-ups
-Shuttle Run
-Sit-ups
-a 3.2km run
Did the squats and sit-ups, skipped the push-ups cos my right arm injury, did not do my best for shuttle run.
As usual i was walking for the 3.2km run. Are they crazy? Its freaking 3.2km!! Even though i was walking, i realised i was actually breathing much easier than before and i did not strained my left calf like i always did.
Woke up this morning feeling sore all over my body. Does this endurance training really works? Or maybe because i don't exercise regularly? Will give it a try. Lets say 3 times a week. Since i can't do normal push-ups, shall do the improvised and simplified version that i saw on YouTube done by DDP-Yoga.

What a great weekend it was! Even though there was no football, managed to catch Metallica's concert live here in Singapore! Many would ask, "You went for Metallica?!!". Let me tell you something about being a Malay. No matter what kind of genre of music you prefer, there will always be once in your life, you listen to Metallica! The experience was not only great, it was AWESOME!! The biggest stage setup i ever seen! May not know all the lyrics of the songs but certainly enjoyed and worth every single cent! 2 weeks ago, i started blogging about my journey to losing weight. So, last night i took a weight test. Now at 88.9kg, i managed to lose 3kg! Still got alot more to go though but am happy with myself with this result. Shall push myself further. To tell you guys the truth, i'm a low self confidence person. I need to keep watching motivational videos and quotes to constantly remind myself that i need this. I want to live over the age of 40. I want to live and travel to places that i dream of.

I'm back to repainting Corinthian figures again. First time i did it cos i just feel like trying out and adding new figures to my collection. However, it seems that repainted figure which i did is doing quite well right now on Ebay. Alhamdulillah. Since i have a few spare figures that i don't really need, will definitely be doing more repaints and clearing it off on Ebay. Now, i just have to look for more ideas and look out for what that will definitely sell. I still have a long way to go and need to practice my strokes. Thanks to few friends who teached me how to do decals for the figure. It does make repainting alot easier!

Dozing off in the office now. Had to cover both shifts for the week as my colleague was transferred out to another branch. My body is in the office but my mind is on something else. Currently i have a customised figure which i remodelled it on ebay. So far, its doing well. Looking around for more new ideas for future repaints. Googling now for fonts and namesets.

Its so hard to keep away from the temptations of not eating right especially during this festive season of Syawal. With all the good food going around, it must be pointless to have the thought of losing weight. Some might asked, "Why start with a diet and a not working out?" Not everyone have their method of cutting down weight. I prefer to kick out the old habits and changing my diet and then slowly adding on workout. I did it before and Insya Allah i can do it again. This time ard, i'm mixing it up with some supplement like whey protein. Never used it before. Lets see if it brings result.
One thing that i'm not discipline of is having enough sleep. Not having enough sleep can make you gain weight and the blood pressure will increase. And i'm now in the office for work. (a bit fucked up to work on a Sunday and i just had 3 hours of sleep)

Its been almost 4 years since my last post. Life has its ups and downs. Will be using back this blog since Facebook, Twitter and Instagram are too mainstream. I'm currently at a low point in term of health. Managed to lose weight in 2010 after my break up with Sweets. Thought i could focus back into life but looks like i was wrong. Fractured my right arm in 2011 and i've never gained back the confidence and health that i've always wanted. These unwanted weight that i put on is a burden. I might be smiling but there lies another story to it.
I will be using this blog as a journal back into regaining my health. May it be a guideline to what i want to achieve. Currently weighing at 90kg, just like when i ended my NS days. My current job is desk bound. To some, i will have more time to hit the gym after the working hours but sleepiness has always managed to get the best side of me. My aim is 70kg. Possible? Insya Allah.
