I want these to happen badly.

The number of things I want to do before I turn a certain age is increasing by the day and this time, I need to re evaluate my priorities and make sure I'm able to hit them all just right in 2014. I need to be able to save enough for my EOY trip and enjoy quite a comfortable trip, get my diving license, still die-die to squeeze some time for a cliff jump, hit a 2.6 GPA and hopefully get a boyfriend too hahahahaha.

If you've followed me quite some time ago.. One of the #1 things I wanna achieve is be done and over with my Open Water PADI certificate. I really hope my sister Shahidah will keep to her promise and go ahead to enroll with me this coming May. Planned was to complete before the fasting month begins and that at the same time, I'll be able to go for a beach holiday.

In terms of the money spent on clothes and along other nonsense, I've cut down by quite a bit and saving for important dresses when it comes to formal work events. Hardly am I bothered with what I've been wearing lately especially when I'm out with my friends simply because I feel fat to have a full length shot being taken. Haha yeah self esteem issues been taking a drag here and it doesn't help that I ain't them girls with flawless features. Truth be told, I rely greatly on photo filters!

As crazy as it may seem but I've purchased a 14 day worth of tea tox from SkinnyMint.com and been trying to exercise almost every other day. I won't rest till I'm back to my previous weight or minus those double chin please. Much research have been done and the only way for me to lose that layer of annoyance lower tummy is via having proper meals aka eat clean. Doing that is almost impossible but I hope to cut down on my sugar intake especially. The almost daily Spinelli Hot Mocha and Frappes from Starbucks have been cut significantly. Did I mentioned that I'm on pilates weekly and been trying to lift a little at a time? Goal is to have a more sculpted arm and that shoulders that I've been aiming for.

Oh ya, I'm resuming uni next semester and I'm planning to take a total of 4 modules! May Allah bless me, especially when I have a 10days winter trip all planned which only god knows if it's ever gonna happen or not. Times like this, I wished I have a friend who is financially ready and wishes to travel to Morocco, Istanbul, Spain and Turkey.. I wanna visit at least one of them badly. :(

Body target me.

I've mentioned earlier that I've been with OCR for a year plus. The 10th of April was the date if you'd like to know and the point of this entry is to let you guys know that I've gained 6 kg. Hahahah yes, welcome to Shiqin's Believe It Or Not. I was 37kg then and my latest visit to the hospital, I weighed 43.7kg. I wasn't exactly shocked? Kinda expected it since my tummy flab didn't go away after a few weeks. It surely does (don't ask how, it just dissapeared).

Nobody is to blame but myself. I do know that as we age, our metabolism rate tend to take a dip and that means, I can't really eat whatever and anything that I want. If I do continue, the only shape I'm gonna be in is round. R O U N D. And nope I'm not gonna allow that to happen and thus, I went ahead at enrolled myself in absbunthighs lesson and have been trying to go for short runs (whatever cardio I can) after work or during the weekends. I'm slowly trying to incorporate some strentgh training too. Been reading that that's one of the ways I can reduce fats and then be able to tone up. Not forgetting that I might have to eat clean. -_-  God know how I'm gonna do that but I'll make an effort and start small. Perhaps lessen on the sugar drinks and more lemon water, less rice and more veggies and fruits to keep myself full. This can all be NATO (no actions talk only) but I must try to follow suit minimum thrice weekly. I love my meat and rice so so much this are gonna be extremely tough for me. :( I know many will "complain" saying that I'm slim enough bla bla. But wait till you see my tummy.. You might have to take back your words.

I'm giving myself a month and a half to finish my absbunthighs classes before I make the jump to join Yoga Movement. Ps: I actually wanted to give Pilates a try but then, YM seems to be pretty reasonable. In terms of price, flexible class schedule and the fact that it's a few stops away from my workplace, it's a plus point.

Oh wells.. We'll see how things are in 3 months time.

Instagram has been my #1 motivator. 

I've been following @fightforfit / @theultimatefitspo / @healthybarbie / @tonedtannedandfitness and I'm not regretting following them at all. It gives me hope that I'll be able to achive such body if I keep my spirits up and not give up. There are many girls that are really plump and yet managed to lose the weight, are fitter and toned than ever. So I believe I, whom people claim to be slim, should be able to step up the game. 

Are you in or are you out?
