I Workout

"Recipe for success: Study while others are sleeping; work while others are loafing; prepare while others are playing; and dream while others are wishing." 
~ William A. Ward


Hello,

As I mentioned in previous posts I have been working out with my gym membership. I just going to document my progress so far. I've been working out for a little more than a month. 

My workout routine is
-pre-workout stretching
-30min cardio: 15min treadmill(usually fast walking with high incline) & 15min elliptical 
I usually have a goal of burning around 200 calories through cardio
-after workout stretching including little bit of core 
-go to various workout machines usually aim at the ab muscles including 50 sit-ups when possible

My diet has not change much. I tend to avoid very greasy and fried foods. Try to not eat sweet things near night time. I've introduced fruit smoothies to my diet. 


I might make a smoothie post later if you're interested in finding out what's in mine. Smoothies are delicious!

 I still weigh around 130lbs with little fluctuation. I do feel like my stomach area has tighten a bit and so has my legs. My upper arms are starting to get muscles too. My energy has increase a bit I guess. I definitely feel better about myself. It was definitely difficult at first to get myself to go to the gym but once I'm there I go for a good workout. I enjoy know and I'm really glad I got a gym pass. 

I will be back in school in about a month. So hopefully I don't gain too much pounds. 

I hope you have a good day and thanks for reading!

Love,

M

Update on Life


Hello!

I got starbucks a week a ago. It was absolutely perfect. I love the starbucks in my town. I got the new cafe espresso frap, my sis- cookie crumble frap, & mom- dark roast coffee. Seriously though my starbucks is always delicious. I'm starting to get a little starbucks deprived right now.


Since I started to working out I thought it was great idea to get new work gear. I got the above tank and shoes from the nike outlet. Totally in love I love new clothes. I also got new sports bras from another place though. I've been working out for two weeks now. I really like the facility that i'm going to. There is a private women's workout area, cinema screen workout room, and full locker room. 


Last Sunday I went to my aunt's wedding reception. I'm happy to gain another uncle. It was at a chinese restaurant with americanized chinese food. 


This was the lovely wedding cake. I loved that there was fruits on it. Too bad the cake fell down during mid-reception.


Today I met up with one of my best friends to go out for lunch. It nice to able to meet up with her since most of our friends are always so busy. The drink above is the very berry limeade. I think I also got it the last time i was there.


For lunch I got the turkey burger and regular fries. The burger was a bit spicy so not my favorite.

That is all. I hope you are having a great summer so far!

Love,

M
