Keep On Smilling Regardless

This just happens to be one of my favourite Pixar shorts... "For The Birds".

I think I recalled watching this prior to Finding Nemo. My friends and I had such a great laugh...

It's a very simple story. Birds of a Feather... Flock together...

However, because the bird who joined the flock was different than the others, large, long and clumsy; the other birds in the flock decided to make fun of that bird... So much so, that when the clumsy bird lost its balance, two birds got together to peck its feet to get it to fall off.

Well... Watch the entire short and you'll love the ending.... (^ ^)

In short.... Keep on smiling, regardless of what others do to you. You may get the last laugh after all.

Have a Happy Merdeka everyone!!!

When To Give Up

Gong Xi Fa Cai to all!!

'Tis the year of the Ox and already, I'm working like one... i.e. Working hard to fix all the bugs and implement features which the client wants in a short period of time. I didn't quite enjoy my CNY as I was working all day and night (up until 3am) to complete the stuff.

Anyway, came across this video which is so funny! Love them Monty Python....

It's a great example of the sheer tenacity (and stupidity of the Black Knight). LOL!!!! You got to admire the guy....

Oh well, I'm not giving up!! I'm hanging on until this thing is complete!! GAMBATE!!!

Did I Just Lose Another 2 Kg??

 

Snoopy looks a bit surprised... So am I...

This is rather shocking.. I just weighed myself and found out that I've lost about 2kg!!

Well, I didn't check my weight last week but I'd guess I was surprised that I dropped by 2kg this week, despite not going to the gym. 

I've been quite strict with myself - no coffee or Milo at work. If I did take Milo, it was only one cup that week. Other than that, it has been nothing but green tea, hot water or natural fruit juices. 

As for lunch, it is often a challenge to eat healthily. Most foods have a lot of salt, sugar or oils and to make the right choice is hard. If all your colleagues prefer to go to this chap fan (economy rice) where the foods are tasty but has a lot salt and oil, your choices are kind of limited. Of course, the best option is to pack your own food - that way, you control what you eat. But often, do we have the time or are we disciplined enough to prepare our food daily? 

Besides that, no supper or any kind after 9:30pm. I have my dinners quite late due to work, but when I do have it, my portions are smaller and often have a lot of leafy green vegetables in it. I move around quite a bit after dinner and will go to bed 4-hours later. It's not good to sleep with a full stomach.

Perhaps my "recent" weight loss was that I managed to clean my bowels completely this morning? (^.^)

Anyway, this small win is a cause for celebration... BY GOING TO THE GYM TOMORROW!!! 

With Christmas coming and the temptation to indulge in all foods very difficult to fend off; this season will be a testing one... So, stay strong! Stay fit! Choose the right foods! Be motivated to stay fit!!!!
