Power Plate

Hola!

Sorry I've been so hopeless at updating.

Since my last post, I have made some progress! *pats back*

Bought myself a pair of running/walking/training shoes. I got the Skechers Shape-Ups Liv. And it's ohsem. That spring-y sole makes walking and running a bit more comfortable. It does need some getting use to - that spring-y sole actually works your calf muscles. The first few days of wearing them, I felt some tightness on my bottom and calf, but now they are just so comfy.

So, now that I've got my shoes, I ought to be working out more right? And I have! *beams*

I've enrolled myself into a powerplate class! I go three times a week and ohmygod, I love it! One session is only for 30 minutes but because you're doing squats and lunges on the vibration plate, you'll be panting and sweating 10 minutes into it. *My stamina is na-da these days* Not to forget, you'll be swearing during the session.

"Why do you do this to yourself?" "Kalau teruk macam ni, biar je la gemok, asal happy" "Remember this pain - and stop stuffing your face!"

After my first proper session, I couldn't walk, go up and down the stairs, get up and down from sitting position without looking like a granny. Mom commented, "Ini lagi teruk dari beranak ni!" =___=

But, I just love the feeling after a workout. I dont think I have lost weight or inches yet, but I feel tight all over. You know what I mean? The flabby bits dont feel too wobbly. Haha.

Oh well, losing weight is painful. I hope I get this in my head the next time I reach for that chocolate!

Fashion Styles: Blouse

If you have been following me on this blog, you’d probably know that I’m such a girly girl. I just love being a girl. Seriously, what’s not to love? We have the best in fashion. Fashion is dedicated to us, women! From hair bands and clips to shoes and stockings, and everything in between. I had many fashion phases growing up. The “Clueless” inspired fashion; checkered pants, preppy blouses and small furry backpacks, short dresses with platforms ala Baby Spice and so much more. But, as I grow older, I stuck to a classic and simple style. My husband loves it when I’m dressed in a simple skinny jeans/pants and blouse . And that has been my staple since I got married. I admit – I would love to be more adventurous in my styles (like in my younger days) but I don’t think my husband can tolerate that. Lol. Over the years of experimenting, I have learned what’s good on me and what’s not, what I like and what I dislike. I prefer blouses; smart casual mostly to cotton tshirts. After tur...

Crates Crazy!

Ohmygod!! This is exactly what I was thinking of doing for our home office!!!!! Ahhh, and to think that I got the inspiration without looking at any pictures/blogs/etc. I feel like I very creative like that. Anyhoos, mine hasn't materialized yet because I haven't found the crates in KL. I called up one of the wine shops (simply because they are the ones that use crates and would prolly have them) in Desa Sri Hartamas, but they said they don't keep theirs. ??!! I have to say, tho, that I haven't been trying hard enough. I could just drop by and ask from all these wine shops, Cold Storage etc. Okay, I am now driven to do so. After looking at the beautiful end product! Wish me luck in my search. If you know where I can get them, do tell! Thank you. Photo taken from Pinterest
