HealthyTJG week 5

Ok... This life style is becoming my normal life. I don't feel weird about controlling what I eat and going to the gym more often. 
My weight dropped to 47.2 kg(104 lbs). Not bad... 
I'm so tired from the week. It was a busy week for me. 

I will be better at recording my journey this week, which is week 6. See you next week!

HealthyTJG week4

This week was tough... It's not because of the diet or exercise. TMI alert! My period completely destroyed me. I don't usually get any symptoms, but maybe the weather or work or whatever combined with period and decided to destroy me! Hahaha. 
Anyway, I still managed to stay healthy at least physically. I kept going to the gym and stayed on my low carb diet. As a result, I lost more weight and didn't have crazy cravings any more. 
Now I'm 47.2kg(104lbs). So far I've lost 2.4kg(5.3lbs) in four weeks. I'm impressed by this number. I didn't try to lose weight, but as a result, I lost 2.4kg! It's very interesting how your body reacts to what you eat and do.

Fitness
Monday: No gym
Tuesday: No gym
Wednesday: 15 mins run and workout, total 40 mins
Thursday: No gym
Friday: 30 mins interval treadmill training
Saturday: 20 mins interval treadmill training and workout(mainly legs), total 1 hour
Sunday: 40 mins running on the treadmill

Diet (I share only dinner dishes here. I eat a salad bowl or a small sandwich/wrap for lunch almost everyday. So it's pretty much the same thing everyday.)
Monday: Left over lasagna from last Sunday (I make a skillet lasagna often. And I use half of the ingredients amount from the recipe. Much less cheese. But it's still good.)
Tuesday: No dinner... I had to go to the dentist after work, so I couldn't eat dinner :-(
Wednesday: Pork steak with brown rice
Thursday: Work dinner... But I did not ear any carbs!!
Friday: Chili 
Saturday: YAAAS! Cheat day!!!
Sunday: Vegetarian quesadilla 


People say that you start seeing differences from week 3. I think that's about right. It's not a dramatical change. But I can tell my jeans are looser around my thighs. I also think that my face looks sharper. I have a round face, so it's easy to tell when I see my chin started sticking out more. Hahaha.
I can't believe I survived four weeks!! It's almost a month since I started. I really enjoy this new life style!
See you next week!!

HealthyTJG week 3

I think I like myself more than before since I started this healthier life style. 
I can see that my face lost some fat. But I don't see any big differences yet. A funny thing is that I started ordering new clothes!! You know, when you feel good about yourself, you get more confident and feel sexy!!! I love it. 
I'm still on week 3. But I'm already happier. It's not because I'm losing weight. It's because I feel good :-)

Exercise
Monday: No gym
Tuesday: Interval treadmill training for 30 mins
Wednesday: No gym
Thursday: 1 mile run and workout
Friday: No gym
Saturday: 35 mins interval treadmill training 
I hit 47.6kg(104lbs)! I was so shocked to see that. It means that I lost 5lbs in three weeks. I feel like that it's a little too fast... But I'm not too worried. Saturday was my cheat day ;-)

Sunday: Ran for 25 mins and workout
I was right. After the cheat day, I'm back to 48.0kg. 

I think that the interval training really burned a lot of fat this week. It's fun to see my body shape is slowly changing. And I feel great!! 

Diet
I repeated some same dishes from last week, so I didn't take pictures this week. Again, please please share some low carb dish recipes if you know some!! It's so hard to keep making different dishes. And it's also difficult to do it in Japan... 

Monday: Chicken fajita (it's the same recipe as last Monday. It was really good, so I made it again)
Tuesday: Omelette with onions, bell peppers, ham, basil, mini tomatoes, and Feta cheese
Wednesday: Quesadilla with basil and Feta cheese
Thursday: Pork steak with brown rice and spinach
Friday: Chili
Saturday: Cheat day!

Sunday: Skillet lasagna
