Day 10 - RTP Blog Roll Shred

Oops.... was so busy the last few days I forgot to blog. Last few days have been bad. Nvr had such bad carbo cravings in my life before! Largely due to TOM. I need to figure out how to combat this issue. It'll be back to my protein salad today again. I want to eat korean beef lettuce roll again! Will pop by the supermarket to get some later.

My timing is screwed today. Been out and about. I need more water!

Saw friends on the Velocity Diet at training yesterday. WOW! They look fantastic! One guy shrunk especially much and everyone was complimenting on his efforts. I long to go on that V diet soon!

Day 7 - RTP Blog Roll Shred

Day 3 of TOM

Meals
0900 - Shake
1230 - Curry Chicken&mutton cubes and big bowl of mix veg
1530 - Pear
1830 - Shake
2130 - 2 tbsp peanut butter

The bloated look and feeling is there there. But the carbs craving is at lower level today. I am drinking lots of water to fight it off. Been a good day so far. Later half will be awesome!

I am going to do HIIT after work. Going to burn off the mutton. It tasted absolutely marvelicious! They actually packed the curry inside the bread. So when u cut up the big loaf of bread, you'll find the bundle of curry meat wrapped up in paper and plastic bag. Will attach a pic later! The foreign guests enjoyed the special treat. One even requested for a photo to be sent to him so that he could show his staff this cool dish! :)

Was too full to eat anything for afternoon snack. Forced down one pear. After workout, had one shake only. Bedtime snack was peanut butter. Went to bed with bloated tummy. Too much veg in the afternoon I think. LOL.

Day 6 - RTP Blog Roll Shred

Ok... I got completely drained when I reached home yesterday. It was the first day of TOM. I am so bloated now that I am going to stay away from the camera for this time.

I am still wondering how to stay sane with my eating when the monthly cycle is here. The craving for something salty really got to me last evening and I gave in to the duck meat! Am I allowed extra calories during this period? Heheh...

Tomorrow is the 15th day of the Chinese New Year. People eat 'Tang Yuan' on this day.
In Chinese, Tang is soup and Yuan is round, which implies reunion, fully satisfaction.
'Tang-Yuan' are sweet glutinous balls made by sweet rice and served with hot sugar water. It's kind of sticky. Some are dipped in red color to make it prettier. Later, the variety of Tang-Yuan are invented. Tang-Yuan are filled with different ingredients inside such as red bean paste, creamy peanut or sesame paste. Also, Tang-Yuan can be served with whole red bean or whole peanut soup and become a tasty dessert. Imagine the calories!

I'll have to really be careful and prepare my own food to the lunch celebration tomorrow!

Meals
0900 - Chicken
1230 - Fish
1530 - Almonds, chinese rojak (u wouldn't want to know what this is! SINFUL!)
1830 - Chicken
2130 - Shake

Weights Training for 30 min.
Bike sprint for 30:30 for 15 min.

Haha... trying my best not to talk about food... Thou shalt not stumble those on Velocity. But still we were talking about chicken wings and seafood last night! :) Press on my friends, 27 days more!

Day 4 - RTP Blog Roll Shred













Low rep training today. Today I tried the new toy! It's like a long skateboard. You just slide from side to side using your leg power to generate that push. It's fun! Will upload the photo once my coach emails me. That was a tough workout. Need to bend low and squat too. Back aching after that, lol.

Nutrition wise, it's been good except for the Ritz crackers. Was craving for something salty and crunchy. Oh well, I will do better tomorrow! Thanks Suz, for your encouragement. I will persevere!

Heeeey... so this is Day 3! Got my photos taken early today, after back from morning walk/run. I feel hyper today so probably gonna dig out some workout videos later. Today's scale reads 62.9kg! Goal for the week - get to 61.9kg.
I got a wedding invite end of the year and was asked by my friend to be her usher coordinator. Hmm... something to work towards! Got at least 10 months ahead of me, heheh. I wonder how I would look like in a tube dress whahaaha. Prepare to drool guys, lol!

Will update on meals later.... off to drink my protein shake now. Later! :)
(after going to many blogs on RTP, I am so impressed by the layouts people have on theirs! I am going to figure out how to do mine so it's prettier too hahaha)
