This is me...


Alright… so it’s time to talk about diets and workouts! *feels excited*

Right now I’m following mostly a Mediterranean diet…low on carbs (I practically do not have any bread these days) with lots of veggies. I’ve stopped trying to crash diet & fast because, honestly, I do not have the will power. I end up binging late at night and end up feeling sick (both physically and mentally)… My ‘diet’ isn’t perfect but it’s working for me (albeit slower than I’d like…)

But the great thing is, it actually works. I spent 4 weeks vacationing with my friend – and those four weeks I ended up eating whole, organic food – no bread or McDs or ice cream or anything like that… we’d have fresh fish grilled and accompanied with veggies… enjoyed a glass or two of wine daily… and mostly walked everywhere (and I’m talking 4 to 5 hrs daily)… I ended up losing 15 pounds just like that!

So now, I’m trying to stick to a ‘natural’ diet… but it’s hard given the place I live in and the lifestyle I lead (lots of socialising and drinking) - - but I’m hoping my determination will get the better of me (pun intended) :)

Oh, and I did not renew my gym membership – I go for brisk walks with my dog (an hour each in the morning & evening); and do some cardio at home - - and when I’m feeling really energetic – I try out the P90x and Insanity modules.

That’s all for now! xox
