Okay this is just gonna be a somewhat vain post where I just put up pictures of myself XD Just realized how long my bangs are the other day so took a few pics lalalalala XD
My bangs haven't been this long in a while... usually I get a haircut before my bangs get this long XD Hair was somewhat crimped and curly cuz I had it up in a pony tail when I worked out earlier that day.
It's very annoying sometimes. Remember how I always complain about my right eye not wearing eyeliner well because of the way my bangs sit? Here you go. Eyeliner on my right eye tends to smear because of my hair.
Hmmm not sure if I like it or dislike it? I guess I'm trying to grow it out cuz I'm sick of trimming my bangs all the time. But not having bangs make me less photogenic. Surprisingly iPone pics turned out okay XD
Hmmm but I do think I look a bit older/sophistated with this bang length =D we'll see if I'm gonna keep it this way.
Okay now onto my fitness progress. I started working out to Jillian Michael's 30-day shred on 1/13/2012 (I keep a workout journal)
You might remember I posted this pic in this post here. This pic was taken on day 12 of the 30 day shred, and I already toned up a bit at that time (so imagine how fat I was before that.. T^T) At that time I didn't really lose much weight at all, just toned up cuz I was just starting to slowly adjust my diet.
Okay as of yesterday 4/21/2012 after about 3 months of consistent workout/diet control
=DDD Stomach looks so much better XDDDDDDD (don't mind my bare face and wet hair here XD)
By the way in both pics I was sucking in my stomach as hard as I could (Again marvelling at how fat I was before O_O look at my stomach even with me trying to suck it in... damn)
But anyway my stomach still needs work. My stomach is not flat when I relax it lolololololol XD And still trying to work on my arms although not very hopeful cuz I was born with chubby fat arms. My arms have slimmed a bit but as you can see the difference is not that noticeable.
I think the best part of working out that is not shown in the pics is I like the way my butt and thighs feel now XD they're pretty toned and tight now. Woohoo! Never thought my thighs can be this tight and firm XD But my thighs are quite massive (aka muscular) though lol. Definitely do not have the Asian pop star long and slender type of legs.
Hmmmm so as of right now I'm working on the 30 day shred again. Cuz kind of ran out of things to do plus I wanted to challenge myself to do it much better this time around. I'm still kind of at a plateau with my weight but oh well... I'm trying... 4 more pounds!
My roommate is gonna start doing the P90X workout I might do it with her XD We'll see hehe.
That's all ^_^ thanks for reading!

Wow you lost so much weight! You look amazing! I am curious about this work out!
ReplyDeleteWow so inspiring :) I'm glad you were able to get in shape! I want to do that myself~
ReplyDeleteThe results look amazing! Keep us updated if you decide to do P90x!
ReplyDeleteMotivates me to start working out more...been finding excuses again *sigh* :X
You look great! I love Jillian's 30 day workout..i think it's pretty good :) What kind of foods do you eat? I can see a lot of toning..and u look healthy!
ReplyDeleteI need to get back into shape before going to Korea in August T_T I've gained a lot of weight going to uni and I hate it! Need to start jogging again! (^__^)/ <- fighter fist! haha!
ReplyDeleteYou look amazing btw! : D You can really tell that you toned up really nicely!
thanks =) I didn't just do this workout though lol although I highly recommend it =D but I think dieting is equally if not more important lol >.<
ReplyDeletethanks :D good luck!!!!
ReplyDeletelol hahaha i still have to kick myself in the butt to work out XD discipline discipline discipline >.<
ReplyDeleteher other workouts are pretty good too :) hmmm I've always been a healthy eater but I just cut back significantly on the proportion... also cut back a lot of rice/carbs. Soup diet (and not the creamy heavy kind XD the clear soup kind) is very effective but kind of painful XD a lot of fruit and veggies and proteins and reduced a lot of cooking oil too
ReplyDeletelol yeah seriously school and stress is the culprit of weight-gain... that's how i gained weight too. good luck!!! =D you're going to korea?!?!!?! hahaha me too! i'm going in june XD
ReplyDeleteyay, you look awesome! :D congrats!
ReplyDeleteKelsey! ahahaha thank you la >< I'm trying I'm trying hehehehe
ReplyDeleteMy fringe is about that length too and I am in the process of growing it out.
ReplyDeleteI have also recently been following a fitness routine which consists of power walking and jogging =)
lol I'm still trying to decide if I want to grow it out or cut it XD yay good for you =D gotta get ready for summer time babe XD
ReplyDeleteHi :3 Saw your comment on my post and I'm following you from now on~
ReplyDeleteWahhh I see your results quite clearly! I am doing the shred now (about half way) but I'm not consistent with it as it gets so repetitive, so I do it every other day or so. This motivates me to keep with it though :P And my stomach ain't so flat either >> I'm okay everywhere EXCEPT there D:
And my fringe is so long now too! I must keep growing it! haha
Haha yup, that's right! I still haven't done it for the past week :X But I will finish it no matter what LOL I gotsta! haha I will try playing my own music over it, that would help a lot :P
