As some of you know, I have just hired a personal trainer to whip me back to good shape.
I guess this must be a desperate move, yet I feel its a WORTHWHILE INVESTMENT in the long run.
I have been in this yoyo cycle for quite some time, and my assurance to you is that it can be very DEMORALISING to lose some weight and pile it back in no time.
I will tell you more of my weight-losing story in the upcoming post.
Meanwhile, in this post, I will like to share with you, what burning calories is all about.
We always hear, this proposition which says, “You are what you EAT“.
How true is that?
I remember, when I am in Ho Chi Minh city, I ate lots muffins and croissant WITHOUT FEELING GUILTY.
I have no idea about calories, no idea on how much EXERCISES I need, to BURN OFF the calories that I have consumed and I have ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA, that I am committing the GREATEST SIN of all, in my pursuit to carve a better body for myself.
Let me enlighten you, why.
Here is a breakdown of calories for 1 muffin.
Each muffin or croissant, may be loaded up to 400 calories.
When you run 1.6km, 4 rounds in the stadium, you will only lose an average of 100 calories.
So…In order to burn the calories of 1 muffin, I NEED TO RUN 16 ROUNDS in the stadium.
That’s a feat! 🙂
I will encourage, all those who are in pursuit to lead a healthy lifestyle, to CLOSELY monitor what you eat.
That is the first step to healthy living! 🙂

Enthusiasm is the yeast that makes your hopes rise to the stars.
Enthusiasm is the spark in your eye, the swing in your gait, the grip of your hand, the irrestible surge of your will and your energy to execute your ideas.
Enthusiasts are fighters, they have fortitude, they have staying qualities.
Enthusiasm is at the bottom of all progress!
With it, there is accomplishment. Without it, there are only alibis”.
Helmi Hakim said: “Enthusiasm is energy.
Enthusiasm cames naturally, when you believe in what you are doing, and when you believe that whatever you are doing, BENEFIT others TREMENDOUSLY!
Enthusiasm is the potential, waiting to be unleashed, the burning desire to accomplish a feat, the immense interest in a particular endeavour, OH YES!!!!
That is what enthusiasm is all about!
Enthusiasm is the willingness to fight to get what you want, the willingness to battle your enemy WITHIN, the willingness to pay the price of success,
YES….Enthusiasm is that surge of energy that springs up, the moment you open your eyes from your sleep, blood gushing verociously up your body as you shouted,
“I am undiputably the BEST!
Remain To Be The BEST…
…and today is going to be my BEST day in life!!!!
That is what enthusiasm all about!”.
You experience it everyday… 🙂

This songs will program me to think positively,
REFRAMING all past experiences to POSITIVE ones
AND create new empowering beliefs in my subconscious mind, that I am going to do well and I will definetely EXCEL in my daily endeavour! 🙂
This is one of the inspirational song that I listen to.
Sing it along and banish away all your negative thoughts like I have always done for myself…

I can go on, nagging about negativity, yet remember, E + R = O ?
I guess, its a waste of my time AND ENERGY, to deal with negative people.
By dealing with them, I am putting myself down to their level, and I would never want, to put myself to a level, where putting down others is synonymous with their lifestyle.
I am so used to think positively and to think negatively NEEDS DOUBLE MY ENERGY!
hahahahhh…I feel like like filling up a jigsaw puzzle.
huhhhh……Feel better now, after letting my negative energy out.:)
Btw, I will like to share with you something positive now.
I have to thank my client, Kak Fardah for sharing this with me.
Thank you soooo…much… Your email came when I much need it!
Guess, blessing from God. 🙂
