healthy vs skinny

i always wanted to be skinny for my whole life. i envy people that can rock a skinny jeans and cropped top. but this weight loss journey has taught me so much about getting in shape.

i saw a girl the other day, so skinny and yes she looks good in skinny jeans. and i told my husband omg she's so skinny. and my husbands answer just gave me the answer i've been looking for. he said yeah she's skinny but not healthy.

yeah i just love my husband. which is true u need fat. fat is good. theres a difference between you are fat and you have fat.

now that i've achieved my goal weight i no longer have to battle w that being being depressed cos i know everyone can rock any dress. the trick is live healthy. exercise is the key point.

for the past year i have been exercising everyday and even days that im supposed to rest i'll feel guilty for not sweating. yeah im an addict.

so my point is eat healthy, live healthy and u'll be fine! clean eating is difficult but once u tried u know its all worth it. swap ur ingredients to a healthy choice. white rice to brown rice, white bread to wholegrains. everything white is badddd. hahahha bad for your health. swap ur full cream milk to soy milk. drink as much green tea as u can. its filled w antioxidant and it increases ur body metabolism. pop some iron into ur exercise routine. they burn more calories at rest. skip that yogurt please, try greek yogurt. they do your body good.

ohh yeah, cut your sugar intake. thats the most important. i've always skipped sugar nowadays. even my funny mountain soya is without sugar. its delicious right? that soya. try ordering the ones without sugar and u'll realized that for all these year you are actually drinking the sugar. because the no sugar soya taste like hell. hahha and my husband just found out and he was upset.

i tried putting my husband into my healthy fitness regime. but i must say his willpower has decreases along the year. guess he's tired after working and he just want to indulge. but i did make sure that he doesnt go overboard. hence he still manage to maintain his weight with a little weight loss. he does sprinting now. which is damn good! do u know sprinting is way better than running? hahah u dont right? 20 minutes of sprinting in a week is enough to burn more calories that running for for the whole week. i read that somewhere. must be from one of the men's fitness mags.

so my journey continue to a healthier, fitter and toned me! hope everyone out there are willing to give it a try! and good luck ;)

let them grow.

i found adrian fell on his bum in the toilet today. and my toilet has water leakage coming from above. and the water was dropping on his head. haha it was so funny. he didnt cry but was just grumbling. lol i swear it was so funny!!!

earlier this morning as i was preparing his breakfast (oats mixed with banana and fresh milk topped with raw honey and ground cinnamon) . yeap he likes oats and thats pretty weird eh? my baby is one healthy baby. other than that, rice is a big NO NO!

so yeah, was whipping that up or him and this boy starts to ransacked my kitchen cabinet and i told him not to play with my glass jar. so he put that aside and play with my plastic tupperware, which i let him to. cos they are toddlers, learning toddlers. i let him play whatever he wants but theres things that i go, ' adriannn nooooooo!' hahahha. then i was about to prepare my breakfast pulak, i heard , ' paaaaangggg!'

no, no nothing happened to me. it was my glass jar that i hid from him earlier, he managed to get it down from the table and was trying to run away with it but it was so heavy and he dropped it. and pecah la glass jar mommy. mommy nak letak kuih raya macam mana ni adriannn. arghhh tension betul.

put him in his highchair while i clean the broken pieces of my precious glass jar. and he all hysterical cos this little boy has this obsession over broom and dustpan. i wonder why? adrian nak sgt tolong mommy sapu sampah eh?

all settled. its time for breakfast. today i fed him in his bumbo. so he ate the oats while i had my regular, wholegrain toast with pb topped with banana. then i left him to clean my porch ( he is still in his bumbo) and yeah he cant get out cos bumbo somehow locked him inside. u need an adult to pull u out or maybe cos peha anak mak dah gemok kot hahahah

usually he will get all worked up cos he nak ikut keluat but surprisingly today i hear no sound of crying. so i thought ohh baik nya anak mak tengok tv tak bising pun.

i went in and the boy gave me a big smile. im like ohhh so sweet my son. skali mak tengok, tumblr air dah kosong and sebelah tangan pegang lid, and lagi sebelah pegang the bottle. tengok kat tepi, air dah tumpah kena carpet and lantai.

ARRRGHHHH ADRIANNNNN!

hahahha nak marah tapi tak jadi sebab rasa cute sangat when he smile at me with that innocent face.

its just precios u know. that moment when u see them grow with all these behaviour. its nerve breaking but adorable. i treasure every moment i have with him!

i told my husband i rather not have frequent holidays and new expensive clothings/ handbags for me but i have the memories of my child when i grow old.

those are precious things that money cant buy. i love him too much that i think adrian is already overdosed with it hahaha hence the spoiling ( daddy said that)

my response? thats not spoiling thats love!

hahaha

i just want the best for my son. thats all. heheh tapi sometimes mommy overboard la kan. sometimes jerrrrr not always.

my husband always asked me ni sapa yang nak, mommy ke adrian? hahah my answer, adriannn laaaa. then hubs always asked and how do u know that? and i said, he came out from my vagina. we have some telepathic communication going on sometimes. hahahah my husband wen silent!

yay mommy always win!!

okie dokie time to go. till then, bloggie!

xx

you.

i kept thinking about the way how things spark up between me and my husband. those were the happiest moment in my life. loving him made me alive each day.

i used to be a crappy person. moody by the day and night but when i met him. everything seems so flowery and i felt like i was in cloud nine. thats the feeling u get when u are in love i guess.

the thing i love most about him is how our brain have the same wavelength. we practically always say the same thing, same word at the same time. they say its jinx but that what i love about us. our brain just clicked. and till today we still do that, let it be in real life or types out.

thats why we are bestfriends to start off. and by all means im glad that it got deeper between us cos i cant see any other person to be my better half.

and i will always remember your efforts and dedication u put in during our courting period. and baby, thats the happiest period ever. because you gave me hope and u made it a reality.

i have lots of stories to tell adrian about his awesome dad when he's older. about how fantastic u are as a man and i pray that he will turn out just like his dad.

u are my bestfriend, my colleague, my partner, my lover, my boyfriend, my fiance, my husband and now u are the father of my child. and u have been an amazing dad to adrian and a fantastic husband to me.

thank you, my love, my heart. i hope our love blossom everyday and that u wouldn't get bored looking at me as i aged and we will grow old together and laugh at our gray hair.

i love you, my arief! forever and always. my heart belongs to u and only u! our love is eternal!

xx

Your Mimi.
