Happy happy, 1 day gone......

Yesterday was a very happy day until I felt that time past without notice.

Happy brunch - went out with petpetkia, very happy that she came and we went to Full House  for a good brunch. 

Had pumpkin soup, chicken chop and iced lemon tea




It was a heavy brunch, stomach was feeling full although after walking for groceries shopping.

Happy tea time at my house - Royale raisin ice cream for us. I like waffle chips to eat with it.



The ice cream just melted so fast, as fast as the happy time past.

As usual, we chit chat, talked about trips, diet, beauty, pin up party and did facial together.

With winks of eyes, it's time to fetch jer. So she left. Went to mamak with jer and had teh O ais limau.

Happy dinner - I realised I still have a pumpkin, why not make some soup? hehe, then I cooked dinner ala ala the brunch menu.

Pumpkin soup, Teriyaki chicken breast+mashed potatoes+grilled mixed fungis




Tasty, stuffed, satisfied! :) The part that I was happiest was cooking and preparation for few hours burned 500cal. Bravo!

Complimented dinner with a cup of lemon water, I have completed my lemon drinks day, hehe. No coffee today. 



I am interested into lose weight in 7 days with lemon diet. Check this out: http://www.venusbuzz.com/archives/18885/lose-weight-in-7-days-with-lemon-diet/. The diet menu looks quite simple. :)

After relaxed for a while, I felt so tired. It was a happy busy day!

Almost Perfect 1195/1200

Everyday looking at 1200 is the number of my daily routine. O to be exact, it's 1200cal.:)

Today my achievement is almost perfect hehe, 1195/1200. Read a paragraph that we shouldn't let ourselves starving...while eating healthily. Good words!

Here are my almost perfect 99+% meals of the day ♥

Breakfast - Heavy! Pork noodles with Cham C ice




Lunch - Homemade fresh lettuce and chips, served with salsa (mango+tomato+cucumber+bell pepper). I love the beautiful colors combination!




Dinner - Steam fish with bean sauce, steam egg and bean sprouts. These dishes were delicious from hawker stall, Sang Kee restaurant.





Aaaahhhh, another good diet day! It's almost 12, reaching a better tomorrow. I am looking forward to the weekly meet up, petpetkia! :)

Sweet dreams! ♥

The day was started with great singing!




The morning bell was ringing, ringing and ringing.....

Come on, today is Saturday, I should be lounging and lounging on the bed. But I can't, because my darling Jer was singing by the bed:" Mummy, it's time to wake up~~~". He sang well, so I couldn't have reason to push him away.

I feel happy for Saturday, usually I eat a lot. As if I am eating buffet but it's not. It's just a very good mood Saturday.

Morning, I went out for breakfast, met a "long lost friend". I mean this curry kampar noodles with assorted balls, bean curd skin etc. :P Yes!! Delicious! What was not missing is always my kopi.



At late noon, I made mixed fruits salad (pineapple + grapes + grapefruits), tasted like an appetizer that stimulated my taste bud for a big meal.


But then, I felt a little bit tired during noon and took a noon nap.

During evening, we went for groceries nearby. This very nice bouquet of greens attracted me.


We had dinner at the Full House cafe, Giant Cheras. I think I need so much of fluid during my diet, so I had soup, roasted milk tea and mushroom soup. 


The main was pan grilled dory with veggies & mashed potatoes. Dinner was great!


I like the ambiance in this restaurant, it gives me relax feeling. This is the kind of stuff that I'd love to have if I have an English house. hehe.



Supper was dragon fruits. A super food for vitaming C and fiber.


Well, last time I rarely eat fruits. Diet is bringing me good eating habit I think.

Now, the Saturday night has just begin, continue to enjoy my alone time. :)


Tasty+Sweet Friday

It was a tasty and sweet Friday. For meals, I spent more times on the preparation and cooking than the real eating. I thought cooking burns calories too.

Discussion on tasty, healthier meals becomes one of my favorite activities, especially sharing thoughts with petpetkia. Can this be a hobby?

Yesterday was another good day that I ate well, cooked well.

Brunch - Home baked chicken wings and greens salad + fresh tomatoes juice



This is kind of asian spicy chicken wing, I love it! But I ate 2pcs as it's quite high in calories.

During tea break, I brought Jer to a new cafe as I promised him an ice cream for his full marks in spelling. Kids most favorite dessert, ice cream!! As for myself, I had watermelon smoothie with aloe vera, soothing......



At night, I cooked as usual, of course I exclude the main carbs, no rice for myself.

White radish chicken soup with carrots, stir fried french beans with prawns and onion omelette. Yum yum!


I am invited to a pin up girls themed party recently. Oh gosh, a pin up girl is sexy and flirty, to my own impression. How am I going to dress up in that feel? There's no such gen in me haha, perhaps a pin up girl chef is possible. We 'll see.......:)

A Tummy Full House Day!

Why am I saying today is a tummy full house day? Coz it never feel hungry today, not a second. hehe.

Morning was bright, morning was beautiful. :) I met petpetkia for breakfast, had a "good looking" claypot lou shu fun + teh C ais. Taste was OK.




Noon we went for a walk, yamcha at Espressolab Jalan Ampang, the iced caramel machiatto was good, not too sweet. Caffeine was what I needed since I only slept 3 hours last night. 


And I forgot my lunch! So I gotta get some snacks, fast food is not for me, but I did picked up some "fast food", few pieces of sushi. It was unexpectedly yummy! 


Last night my mood got stirred up and down. I thought today the cloudy day will continue. Luckily, I have a friend, a friend with a pan. haha, just kidding. I am still enjoying the day. Enjoyed the chatting and laughing.

For dinner, I even gave myself day end bonus.

Home cooked bak kut teh + rice, very important with the chili padi & garlic, yeah!



Enjoying the night, relaxing and listening to one of my favorite KDrama songs.

The Taste of Childhood

Today, I went out with mum for a couple hours of shopping. It was too rush in the morning, hence I didn't have time for breakfast.

I thought it was good that this will reduce my calories intake today but it was not. Today, I am over, over, over!

We passed by a shop, which attracted my attention, which I thought it is a new eatery shop. But mum told me this is the shop that sells pig organs soup, which we used to visit 20+ year back. That time, we were staying in a rented wooden house, simple and happy family. :)

I still can remember clearly those day during my childhood, I used to follow my papa (my father) several times a week to visit the stall for the taste of rice and soup. Now, it is open in a shop (永成记猪杂汤饭), run by the uncle's children.

Today, I ordered the porridge for my lunch, still taste the same, tastes like my childhood time's memory. 




We also ate the asam vegetables, the taste was just ordinary and I think it's not in the menu of the old days. Not as good as having a cup of kopi O ice.

After a walk, I ate some toasts with my 2nd booster, hazelnut white coffee.


During the preparation of dinner, I felt so much from my childhood lunch, so I want to cook a delicious dinner to my loved ones, especially my little Jer. I hope he will remember my good food too.

What is more simple than a bowl of fried rice with love? One of my good recipes tho. 


I think I will come to immune and resist to "beautiful" food at one point during diet. However, I wasn't able to, when I looked and smelled the fragrance from these rice. I stole few bites as appetizer. Hehe.

Here comes my main course of the evening, I guess you may want to try it too. :) The pork fries definitely add stars to this dish.


OK, end of the day. Back to now......focus and continue my diet hobby tomorrow. 

Good night!

Everyday is a New Day

Along my diet journey, my diet diary have recorded "low & rise", which simply means I do feel hopeless sometimes when the diet plan seemed did not work well. But the little disappointment is eventually replaced with the hearty meals. Mood is motivated and rising again.

So I have been repeating to myself that everyday is a new day! Let's start it again! :) 

Today I had some meals that are simple but it is sufficient for my boss (my tummy) :P

Brunch - Red & Green Cabbage Salad with hard boiled egg white & cherry tomatoes. I like to sprinkle my salad with chili flakes. 



Tea Break - I pampered myself with popcorn chicken, breaded prawn balls (sharing basis) and a cup of hazelnut coffee. Non-stop eating, haha!





Dinner - Simply delicious aglio olio with chicken sausage and a glass of red (Merlot 2011). This may not be the perfect pairing but I enjoyed it!




Having said that, I am missing the lounging time with the gang again...... I guess I am starting to dream again......


Fly me to the moon ~~~

Forgot Day No? of My Diet Diary

I think I have started to go on diet plan days ago, may be a week? or more than that......

Well, I am happy that my diet is still under control except some weekend eating bonanza :)

I always pay more attention on Monday's diet menu as I believe a good starting on Monday will make the whole week beautiful.

This morning, I had my own home sweet home breakfast.

Butter oatmeal breads, some refreshing cucumbers and tomatoes slices with grilled mushroom + onion. Paired with a cup of 0% fat yogurt drink. 



Too much? Not really, I was preparing myself for a walk. Hehe.

A walk was to groceries shopping in this sense, and shopping was done within 2 hours with my groceries kaki in NSK. I must say that seeing colors in the morning will brighten the day. Mood was good too.



During lunch, I had chance to taste this delicious typical Thai style spicy fish lettuce wrap with noodles, prepared by Aunt Chen, how lucky! I was told that the name of it in Thai is "miao badu".

Own recipe chili sauce + fish + noodles + fresh parsley, wrapped with super fresh lettuce. 




Wow! After eating, the freshness and fish's taste was lingering in my mouth, I am gonna miss it!

Dinner is always my hopeful meal with highest calories. I wrap up the night with all of my favorite dishes.

Stir fried mixed veggies, tofu soup with mixed ingredients and sardine in tomatoes.



Today, I watched the movie "Sex and the City 2" as recommended by petpetkia, it is a good movie, in my favorite list now. :). Just can't resist to it's scenes of luxury, fashion, travel, friendship....the story line is good too.



It started with my favorite song "Empire State of Mind" by JayZ & Alicia Keys, totally attracted me from the beginning.



It is then the hotel in the girls' trip in this movie that made me "wow"! Love it so much! Then, I went to search for it and came to know that the shoot was taken place in Morocco. Then hotel name is Taj Palace Marrakech, superb hotel that I would want to put in the "to go" list. 


Abu Dhabi; Morocco... I'll travel to you in my dream......

Tosbeheena ‘ala khair تصبح/ تصبحين على خير

Good night!
