Gearing into sporty mode
i am totally disgusted with myself these days. seeing the amount of flab on my bod, and the feeling of loose skin all over really sucks.
i know i may be thin by some’s standards, but believe me.. the feeling of having a tone body like what i used to have and what i am feeling now is worlds apart..
and so, after the day i found out that i am currently 52kg (the heaviest since!).. i decided i should gear myself into sports mode, and seriously do something about it.
well, i cut down on heavy dinners, and tried to choose my food well if i could.. i also started doing power stretch everyday for at least 150times. ok, some days, i was too tired and didn’t do it.. but at least it’s a start right?!
and despite the rain today, i joined my athletics juniors (some of them are 7 years apart!!) for a 10km run at east coast park. although the actual distance is slightly lesser than 10km, i managed to keep my pace and run throughout, managing a long sprint towards the end, clocking 50mins of run (from mac to fort road and back, then to chalet and back to mac)
wow. i felt really good physically and i so want to do it again!
flabs, be gone!

Hi there! Thanks for popping by. I'm Cherie, a ftwm (full-time working mum) to 3 lovely kids (2 boys & a princess) and my motto in life is to BE HAPPY. Sure, life isn't all that smooth but it's the mentality that counts, no? This blog documents my life. Or rather, snippets of my life that has passed me by. I love capturing life memories in the blog and being able to read back and laugh at myself (or anyone). I love to eat (A LOT), travel and paint my own nails so the blog is mostly about that. Is that considered lifestyle? Of cos, the family is also very much an integral part of me so there would be loads of memories about the husband and my kids - Jerry (9yo), Jerome (7yo) and Leia (2.5yo) and everyone else that's close to me. I like documenting the kids' milestones, their growing up years, their achievements (and sometimes, mine), and my struggles and battles with motherhood. It sure ain't easy. I love seeking out good food and travelling, is trigger-happy, love new gadgets, love exploring new places and strives to live life to the fullest. I aspire to travel the world as much as I can, to soak in the different sights across the various continents and visit all the Disneylands in the world (almost there!). Have fun reading and do drop me a comment to say hi! Love, Cherie Lim Find me on Instagram.

this gadget from oto (from long ago), that sorta makes you do a stretch in push up position that works on your abs.

i know what u mean.. although i dont have the tone bod that u used to have.. but i didn’t look like a muffin before until now.. and the feeling of a stomach preventing me from sitting any up straighter is kind of depressing.
