***********************************************************************************************************************

Mom's birthday today. Last week lagi I dah belikan hadiah for mom.

And then semalam my offday, ai pegi jalan2 to Pavilion sebab my sister nak beli handbag. 

Sampai2 parkson at Pavi, we go straight to Guess handbag section. Banyak handbag on sale. Up to 60%. Mom tgk and berkenan 1 handbag terus beli. Lucky her tinggal 2 je lagi. Ada dtg pompuan lagi sorang, dia pun berkenan the same handbag mcm yang my mom nak. Nasib baik my mom dh mintak earlier than that girl. So mom got the new handbag while the girl has to take the display ones. 

Then my sister and I dok ke hulu hilir choosing handbag. Banyak sgt choices and sumer cantik. Yang best nye, I don't know whether I should buy or not sbb just a couple of weeks ago I bought 2 small handbag. 1 wristlet and 1 small sling bag. So rasa mcm perlu ke nak beli handbag lagi. 

Finally my sister chose the one she likes. Kebetulan sama dengan yang ai suka gak. 

Ada lain, tp I dh kata kalau nk beli gak budget below rm200 sebab I dh beli 2 handbag baru kannnn.

Pikir nyer pikir nyer pikir, I said "no need lah".

*story above happens on Thursday 28 August 2014*

On mom's actual birthday, Asu make a birthday cake from instant cheese cake leleh powder mix i bought during ramadhan. It was delicious. I broke my diet. Mom buat mee goreng. J masak macaroni and spaghetti bolognaise. And me? I don't cook. #truthaboutnina

Almost Is Never Enough

I don't like Ariana Grande. She doesn't sing. Properly. She mumbles.

But i love this song by her. Its a duet and i dont think i can hear her singing. Annoying.

Here i found Dave Lamar, a contestant from The Voice Philippines doing cover of her song.







Almost Is Never Enough 

(Ariana Grande with Nathan Sykes)


I'd like to say we gave it a try
I'd like to blame it all on life
Maybe we just weren't right, but that's a lie, that's a lie

And we can deny it as much as we want
But in time our feelings will show

'Cause sooner or later
We'll wonder why we gave up
The truth is everyone knows

Almost, almost is never enough
So close to being in love
If I would have known that you wanted me
The way I wanted you
Then maybe we wouldn't be two worlds apart
But right here in each other's arms
And we almost, we almost knew what love was
But almost is never enough

If I could change the world overnight
There'd be no such thing as goodbye
You'd be standing right where you were
And we'd get the chance we deserve

Try to deny it as much as you want
But in time our feelings will show

'Cause sooner or later
We'll wonder why we gave up
The truth is everyone knows

Almost, almost is never enough
We were so close to being in love
If I would have known that you wanted me, the way I wanted you
Then maybe we wouldn't be two worlds apart
But right here in each other's arms

And we almost, we almost knew what love was
But almost is never enough

Oh, oh baby, you know, you know, baby
Almost, baby, is never enough, baby
You know

And we can deny it as much as we want
But in time our feelings will show

'Cause sooner or later
We'll wonder why we gave up
The truth is everyone knows

Almost, almost is never enough (is never enough, babe)
We were so close to being in love (so close)
If I would have known that you wanted me the way I wanted you (babe)
Then maybe we wouldn't be two worlds apart
But right here in each other's arms

And we almost, we almost knew what love was (baby)
But almost is never enough

Oh, oh baby, you know, you know, baby
Almost is never enough baby
You know

Selamat Hari Raya 2014 and I got burned 😪

Ramadhan Kareem 1435

To all my family and friends, have a blessed Ramadhan.

Kyle tried to puasa penuh on the 1st day yesterday, nyaris berjaya bertahan. At 5:30pm, masa dia pegi pasar Ramadhan, lips so pale, jalan x bermaya, almost pengsan, we had to feed him with some food. 

Sokay, today he'll try to puasa again.

Ai pulak, today lepas sahur perut dah rasa sebu dan tak seronok. Tried to sleep to forget about it. Bangun at 9am, perut grumbling, tekak loya. At 10:45, I gave up. Tak sempat di tahan, terus muntah all the food I had during sahur.

It came true. The one thing I fear most during Ramadhan is get food poisoning from the food we buy. 

Harini, saya xnk membeli apa2 food. Masak je lauk simple. Telur goreng and ikan bilis goreng pun nallarekek la.

So, people, berhati2 la kalau membeli food di pasar Ramadhan tu. Kadang2 kita tak tau pukul berapa diorang tu masak. Bersih or not. 

Kan dh kena Nina! Adoiiiii 

Still wrapped under the blanket, menahan sakit perut and muntah. Perut sangat tak seronok. Dah taruk minyak angin. Nak kentut pun takut! Sebab bukan angin yg kuar! Haha.

#TipsDiet - Diet Liquid* & Kira Kalori Anda (Count Your Calories)

Assalammualaikum,

Meh kali ni nak habaq, tips2 nak kuruihkan badan yang gedempol yang dah serupa macam pintu kalau tengok dari belakang. Sila jangan terasa ya, sebab ai was talking about myself, once upon a time 8 months ago, i saw myself like an albab from the back! Wtf.

Pikir2 balik, rasa macam kenapa ai mendera badan ai sampai jadik bentuk pintu? 'eh heh

Lepas beranak ujung tahun 2010, sampai la around 8 bulan lepas, dah bermacam2 cara nak kuruskan badan ai dah cuba. Dari telan pills, ke lotion sapu-sapuan, ke girdle/corset ketat-ketatan sampai tak bernafas, ke pengawalan pemakanan, ke rutin bersenam dah ku coba. Tapi tak jugak2 kurus. Makin mengembang ada la. Dari saiz pintu lebar 2 kaki, terus jadik lebar 5 kaki. Dah la pendek, gemuk pulak tu, dah rupa macam penguin madagascar dah aku tengok diri aku sendiri ni. wtf again!

In May 2013 - 68kg... damn fatty bam bam bulldozer me! fark!

Pic #3

BEFORE

16 May 2013 - 2 days before dad passed away...

I would love to blog about my dad, but i'm still not ready yet.

In the meantime i will keep my memories with him in my head! 

AlFatihah dad, i miss you so much!

After came home from my last trip to Penang back in October 2013, yang membuatkan ai benar2 berazam nak kuruskan badan by 2014. Sebab sebelum pegi Penang, berat badan ku 68kg. That weight has been with me since i gave birth. Tak pernah kurang. Tapi lagi menakutkan bila balik from Penang trip holiday 3D2N, my weight was 74kg. Jeng jeng... 

Terkejut beruk gak la kan. Tak pernah2 sampai 70kg plus beb. TAKOOOOOT!

Tambah menakutkan bila all my life i spent with J, dia tak pernah bersuara pasal body i. Tak de hek, takde hok. Tapi, bila berat jadik 74kg, baru la dia melepaskan segala yang dipendam. Baru la dia nak kata, "ya, your legs looks like rhino!".... amekaw!

Actually sebelum ni dia penah gak panggil ai rupa macam dogong, tapi to me, dogong tu still ok kot, sebab dia ikan, gemok comel panjang straight gitu. Tapi bila dah kata macam badak, badak ada 4 kaki. Dah la badak tu berdiri paha melekat, betis tak bersentuh. Betul2 macam ai sangat dah tu. Itu dah consider danger zone, nenong nenong nenong. 

So i bertekad, before 2014 comes, i have to lose at least 5kg-10kg macam tu la target ai. 

Pikir punya pikir, ai tak nak amik any ubat-ubatan untuk kurus, ai told J, i wana do LIQUID DIET*. 

I love drinking water, tapi tak suka minum banyak. Sekali sip-sip sikit camgitu je. Paling kuat pun daily boleh minum 500-700ml je. Saya seorang yang pemalas nak kencing. Selalu J marah, kadang2 dipaksa nyer aku pegi toilet suh kencing. Sebab dia kata nanti sakit stone ka, pundi kencing letup ka, sapa yang susah. 

Tapi pasal nak jugak buat liquid diet, ai paksa diri minum air more than my usual water consumption. 

Tips diet liquid is senang je. 

Bangun pagi - minum air (2 gelas)

Rasa lapar - minum air (1 gelas)

Lunch time - minum air (1 gelas)

Sebelum makan - minum air (1 gelas)

Tea time - minum air (1 gelas)

Rasa lapar - minum air (1 gelas)

Dinner - minum segelas fruit juice (without sugar) followed by minum air (1 gelas)

Rasa lapar - minum soup kosong (with veges ok, but no ayam/daging/seafoods) followed by minum air (1 gelas)

Supper - minum segelas susu followed by minum air (1 gelas)

The 1st week of my liquid diet, i almost gave up. I'm not used to drinking lots of water liddat one. wtf.

I cheated the 1st week, where i did took a piece of chicken nuggets for lunch. Kadang2 makan roti cream gardenia for dinner. 

Basically, benda yang boleh kunyah i will try to avoid. Tapi memang kena ada support from J. He has helped me a lot so that i can achieve my target in just 2 months before January 2014. 

Selama ai diet, J tolong masak. J tolong kemas rumah. J tolong me a lot. 

Bila ai nak curi makan on the table, dia ingatkan about my diet. It was tough tapi memang berbaloi.

Tak dinafikan bila ai tak makan, ai jadik cepat marah. Mula2 tu ada rasa loya2 sebab perut kembung air. Bila rasa loya, of course kita rasa macam lembik. BUT.... it's all in your mind. Motivate diri sendiri that this is for your health, for yourself.

13 September 2013 - dah macam bailon dah diriku ini!

Pic #5
AFTER
30 January 2014 - 3 months of doing liquid diet, i lost more than 10kgs.

Paling kelakar after i lost weight, i cut my hair short. A lot of people didn't recognize me. Ramai orang tanya J, mana his wife yang nyanyi with him, when actually ai was standing next to him. Comedy!

With my lil sis yang also besar bagak macam bailon tapi ok sikit than me sebab dia tinggi than me.

Pic #7
AFTER
I encouraged her to follow my diet tips, and she lost a lot of weights too.
.

.
.
NOW, after i did liquid diet for about 2-3 months, ai start to makan proper meals.
(i tahu ramai kata jangan skip meals and bla bla bla, if u rasa u tak nak follow my diet tips, then please stop reading now!)

Tapi sebab ai dah biasa minum air banyak, secara otomatik, you akan rasa kenyang. Just remember - MINUM AIR SEBELUM MAKAN ANYTHING!

So macam mana pulak kalau kita terlupa minum air sebelum makan, and tetiba terlajak makan membuak2 sampai kenyang nak tidor manjang? Or dalam sehari kita makan melampau2 pagi petang siang malam terbelasah makan nasik sebab 3-4 bulan asyik minum air je?

Pegi download MYFITNESS PAL apps on Ios and Android.

I love the apps. Kita boleh keep track kita punya kalori. From food, drinks, exercise and lagi best, kalau pakai Iphone 5S, ada built-in M7 Motion processor. Tak yah susah2 kira steps, letak je phone 5S dalam poket, go jalan from bed to toilet pun dia dah kira kalori. 

First time pakai the apps, i walked in One Utama Old Wing to New Wing back to Old Wing, apps counted more than 7,500 steps. Gila babeng banyak steps tu! And now bila keje, i put the phone in my pocket sebab i move left to right most of the time and kadang2 je menari sampai peluh2 ke butt crack!

Pic #8
Contoh diary input.

Pic #9

After completing your diary input, results will come out. I usually put my calories 1,200 daily. Tapi jaga makan punya pasal, selalu too few calories. But i don't care, as long as i drink a lot of water, i know my metabolism increased (scroll down to know the benefits of water).

 

Pic #10
Another sample calorie diary input.

Pic #11
According to the apps, if you keep eating/doing the same everyday, your weight will be so and so in 5 weeks.

Daily nutrition breakdown in pie chart

Pic #13
Weekly calories intake you can see in a graph.

Pic #14 (source - google)
My water boiler is 1.7 liters so it's equal to 7 cups.
Daily i drink about 14-18 cups.

CONFESSIONS
I suka makan sushi king.
Sebelum diet, bila makan sushi king, ku boleh belasah makan kalau susun pinggan tu boleh jadik KL twin tower.
Tapi lepas diet, and ada MyFitnessPal, ai see how much calories in each plate.
And did you know, sushi king menu cover ada info about how much calories you hafta take daily? All you hafta do is see which one suits you.
Contoh kat bawah...


Pic #15
LESS ACTIVE (KURANG AKTIF)
Calculate your weight (kg) x 28.6 = estimated cal/day
Ini untuk orang2 yg dok kt umah/ofis, manjang depan pc bontot berat malas nak gerak!



Pic #16
MODERATE ACTIVE 
Weight (kg) x 37.4 = estimated cal/day
Kalau ko jenis berdiri pastu jalan sana sikit sini sikit, contoh tukang masak, promoter perfume.


Pic #17
ACTIVE
Weight (kg) x 44 = estimated cal/day
Nuff said, it's for you gym freaks out there!

Pic #18

Sejak pandai kira calories, makan at Sushi King dah jadik senang, sebab setiap menu ada tulis berapa kalori. Tak yah susah2 carik dlm apps pun. 

I selalu minum Hot Green Tea, so it's only 2 calories. Kalau ko xmo kalori intake langsung, ko kemam itu ice cubes. wtf

Pic #19
I love eating this Golden Ball, tapi bila tgk kalori dia 248, ai makan half saja. Kalau dulu, ku bantai 2 pinggan.


Pic #20
I love Tori Karaage too. Again, i eat half only.


Pic #21
And again i eat half only.

So basically when u have MyFitnessPal apps, you can monitor your calorie intake. Sangat bagus. Ianya sangat hebat!

And kat bawah ni ada artikel pasal kenapa you MESTI MINUM AIR.

WHY DEHYDRATION IS MAKING YOU FAT AND SICK

Digestive, skin, bladder and kidney problems, fatigue and headache are just some of the adverse effects from not drinking enough water. We need it as much as air we breathe in! It’s not a joke.

Did you know that when you start feeling thirsty your body is already dehydrated? The best practice is to sip water throughout a day. Have it always handy!

If you’re not a morning person, have two glasses of water right after you wake up. It will boost up your blood pressure to normal levels, and it’s way healthier than having your first coffee on an empty stomach.

Also, don’t think that sweetened juices, soda or tea will hydrate you as well as water does. It’s actually the opposite! Sugar, as well as salt, makes your body waste precious water just to clean it out from your system. And if you love your coffee, make sure to drink one extra glass of water for every cup you have.

And as an added bonus, drinking water speeds up your metabolism and makes you feel more ‘full’. You will eat less once you start drinking more! It’s the safest and healthiest way to loose some weight.

Thanks to http://memolition.com/ for the above article. You can read here for bigger picture!

Peringatan
Bila ai start Diet Liquid*, tidak bermakna ai tak makan langsung. Ai did makan tapi dlm perasaan control makan. Maknanya, nasik tak disentuh tapi digantikan dengan sekeping ciken nuggets or seketul hot dog, ataupun setengah roti krim. 

Hello Kitty Lovers

I don't like Hello Kitty (sungguh bias).

Sebab kaler dia pink. Lepas tu dia macam gegirl sangat. Macam kanak2 sangat. Macam tak nak grow up je kalau suka hello kitty ni.

Tapi new product from Splashes & Looks by AF Sister are special edition of Hello Kitty range. Ada 2 new product, Blusher & Lipstick.

Both products i love sangat! Tutup mata part hello kitty tu, tapi i suka sangat colors are vibrant and long lasting gitu, elok sangat untuk ai yang keje nyanyi 3-4 jam pastu malas nak touch up muka.
