Just got back from a power walk in the snowy weather and I’m feeling positively charged. I also did a light workout this morning. I’m feeling high because I’m feeling well and healthy! Today is always the best day to do things, so do not postpone it for another day. Now it’s time to give my boyfriend a massage after a hard days work…sitting in front of the computer ;)

Weight: 65kg (143.3lbs)
Waist: 87,5cm (34,4inch)

 

When it’s snow storm and there’s nothing to do, it‘s a perfect time to pamper oneself. Putting rice mask on was wonderful. I also tested nano eye mask and it did wonder for my eyes! A little later, the daily dose of Smallville.

I ate alot last week, and went crazy over McD’s french fries and apple pie! The food monster showed up during Tuesday evening, otherwise the week has been great. I even walked/jogged in bad weather. Small changes in habits make a difference! The body continues to burn fat even after the workout! Reward for next week will be an eye cream.

Today’s weight: 64.4 kg (142 lbs)
Change: -0.9 kg (2 lbs lost)

Happy Sunday ♥

 

I’m planning exercise for the week. A blog friend suggests that you should reward yourself when you reach mini goals for the week. I have never found a good way to reward myself but will give this a try.

Starting weight: 65.3 kg (144 lbs)

Monday, Wednesday, Friday – 20 minutes workout

Reward – Egyptian magic. I just got this cream from Ebay so I’ll use it as pre-reward. ;)

cure natural aqua gel

Yaaay, that was a fast delivery! I ordered Cure natural aqua gel from Singapore and it only took 2 days!

Cure natural aqua gel is a peeling mask. It’s the best-selling skincare product in Japan. They say that a bottle is sold every 20 seconds! It contains very high water content (91%) and removes dead skin cells in a gentle way – without scrub particles.

At first I was a bit skeptical but dead skin cells actually do get rolled up into tiny balls as the video shows. Yuck!

Love it! My face feels fresh, keep blackheads/pimples at bay and no more dry skin flakes during winter :)

I didn’t have a heart to blog and I felt totally exhausted. The month of September has not gone well. I got tooth infection, two people who are close to me got cancer and heart related problem. My cat got hit by a car at the turnaround/parking space, very near to my home. I don’t know why people speed up when they are going to park the car anyway. He was just out of sight for a few minutes and then I found him lying in front of our gate, in pain. We had to drive to the next city, about one hour away from where we live, because there is no emergency animal hospital here. Surgery went very well, but the broken shoulder blade is taking several weeks to heal. I haven’t been out of the house for two months. The next x-ray is on Monday so I hope for some good news.

I’ve put away the scale and stopped weighing myself because it’s not a good way of measuring my success. My fear has been that I’ll gain weight if I didn’t weigh myself regularly. I’ve come to term that it’s time to let go and start living in a state of flow.

The reason why it’s such a struggle to lose weight is because of internal conflicts such as “I want to eat that cake, but I know it’s not healthy” or “I want to exercise, but I don’t really feel like it”. I need to re-connect with what I really DO want and live in the now and stop procrastinating.

I’m making a lifestyle-makeover by massively purging my possessions to regain clarity and refocusing on total well-being.

 

I lost two pounds (0,9kg) and finally reached a new low on the scale. I think I got my eating under control. I’m not dependent on eating a variety of foods as I wrote two weeks ago, but it does definitely get easier if I do.

Monday’s weigh-in: 144 pounds (65,3kg)

This is working very well. Eating a variety of foods at dinner time is a major help! I don’t go for an extra meal before bedtime as I usually do. I don’t overeat and I don’t crave junk food either.

Today’s weigh-in: 146 pounds (66,2kg)
