30 Days No Rice Challenge

Salam and hello dearies!

Okay, I'm really desperate to lose weight now. Huhuhu. Ever since I gained a lot of weight, most of my clothes are now getting tight. I look awful and I don't really feel confident any more. I don't feel comfortable in my clothes and this feeling is not good for my self esteem. So, I have decided to challenge myself with a new challenge, which is 30 Days No Rice Challenge. This time around, I will make sure that I will complete this challenge successfully. 

In this challenge, I will try to avoid from eating rice for 30 days. It can be quite challenging because well, rice is my main food. Last time, during my glory diet years, I managed to reduce my rice intake. But once I stopped dieting, it seems like I can't stop from eating rice. So I think this is the best challenge for me to do right now as a kick start.

My target for this challenge is to avoid from eating rice for at least 25 days. Why not the whole 30 days? Since this is the first month, I don't want to force my body. It may cause me to overindulge which will make me to gain more. So I will take it easy first. I make take up to 5 cheat days. However, once I'm used to not eat rice, I may continue the challenge until I achieve my target weight. Huhuhu...

BTW, I've started the challenge today. Hehehe. But my body is so weak right now. Plus I have a course today and this make me feel extra weak. Hmm. In order for me to gain energy, I replace rice with oats. I make my favourite porridge but instead of using rice, I used oats. It tasted the same. Hehehe... (I'm really good at cooking porridge).

Oh, I will also start my 30 Days without Sugary Drinks too. This is my biggest weakness. I can't seem to avoid sugary drinks especially ice blended such as Cool Blog, Chatime and Tea Bag. These are my kryptonite. So, these challenges start simultaneously. 

I will update on my progress for these challenges. I hope that I can keep complete the challenges with flying colours. I MUST complete them. Huhuhu... or else I will stay fat like this. Huuuu...

30 Days Weight Loss Challenge

Salam and hello dearies

This year, I have decided to lose my weight. I think since I've been working, I gained a lot of weight. Well, due to workloads, less time to workout and I have my own money and car, I often go and eat at fancy restaurants for the past 3 years. This year, I'm going to change. I think if I don't start now, I will keep on adding my weight. Huhuhu...

So, today I just started my 30 days weight loss challenge. Today I skipped for 20 minutes, do 3 sets of weight lifting and 30 minutes of static cycling. Well, I think it's quite good for starter. I also took some supplements before and after workout. These supplements help to boost my fat burning and also help to repair my muscle. What is the name of the supplements? Herbalife? Shaklee? Nope and nope. Huhuhu... I will reveal the supplements' name on my 30th day. Hehehe... 

After my workout, I only drink a glass of protein shake (from the same brand of my supplements). The shake is super yummy and I felt so full after I finished the whole glass. Fuh. Protein shake is good as a meal replacement because protein helps to build muscles. Muscles are needed to burn fat faster.


Okay, I will update more on my weight loss progress. This time around, I will not stop until I achieve my ideal weight. Insya Allah.

p/s - I'm quite sore right now. My muscles are aching and I'm in so much pain! Huaaaa....

Informative Monday: Coffee to Reduce Cellulite

Salam and hello dearies

So for my first Informative Monday entry, I have this amazing info that I believe most women will like it. After I do a lot of YouTube video walking, I found a lot of videos about the use of coffee to reduce weight and cellulite. So I think it's kind of interesting to write about this is my blog since I also have cellulite (no need to be ashamed here) and I really want to get rid of it. Hehehe...

Why coffee?

Coffee has been known for its many benefits. It contains antioxidants and caffeine which are used in many cosmetics as cellulite cream. Coffee can help to tighten the skin and promotes blood circulation too. Plus, the smell of coffee is super yummy and it can help to relax too. 

 How to use coffee to reduce cellulite?

One of the easiest ways to use coffee is by making it as body scrub. There are many recipes that can be used to make coffee body scrub. It depends on the individual. You can mix the coffee with different essential oils and ingredients too.

Insya Allah for my DIY Friday entry, I will show you the easiest way to make your own coffee body scrub. It will not cost you a lot. Plus, I think it's a lot cheaper than buying from shops or spas. Hihihhi...

Till I write again!
