I woke up this morning with aching muscles on my shoulders and neck. Maybe over trained a little bit yesterday? I had to work this morning so I took a capsule of Alaxan FR 200mg so that I have the strength to go to work.

It was my rest day from workout today but I stuck to my diet. Whenever I have work, I used to just rely on fast food. Thinking "how harmful can 2 pc. KFC chicken be?" or "so what if it's pizza? It's vegetarian anyway?".. Well, about months of fast food and 2 visits to specialists later, I learned that fast food is not the way to go. I was feeling sluggish and so heavy even with the regular exercise and hard training with a personal trainer!

I prepared my packed lunch for the first time ever since I started my healthy diet. I bought 1/4 roast chicken from Rustan's FRESH and a pack of Goolai packed salad. I paired it with 1/4 cup brown rice and 1/2 cup of corn kernels.

BREAKFAST

1 cup Nestle honey almond wheat cereal

1/2 cup skim milk

SNACK

1 cup assorted fresh fruits

SNACK 2

1 pc. Banana

LUNCH

1/4 Roasted chicken breast and wing (no skin)

1/4 cup brown rice

1/2 cup corn kernels

SNACK

1 pack Goolai packed salad and garlic dressing (lettuce, butong pakwan, mangoes, crab sticks, onion rings, cherry tomatoes)

SNACK 2

Turkey Sandwich on Wheat Bread

DINNER (@ KAI)

3 pcs Salmon Sashimi

2 pc soft-shell crab sushi

1 pc Uni Sushi

1/2 serving of the Grilled Hamachi Fish Head (this dish is AMAZING!!)

Gosh, when I was at work a while ago, everyone got to eat 2 pcs. of juicy KFC original chicken with steaming hot rice. I was sooo tempted to have myself some too but I knew that I would only regret it afterwards. Besides, I had a lot of packed lunch and snacks so why the extra calories right? I suddenly remembered Joey from FRIENDS saying "A moment on the lips, forever on the hips!" Hahaha! Anyway, at least I got to eat something healthier at dinner... YUM YUM!

I think I deserve another pat on the back for just saying NO! ;P So anyway, for lasting 5 days without smoking, I finally got that well deserved massage from SPAHOLICS!! I can't wait for next weekend to treat myself with something if I last another week without smoking and sticking to my diet and exercise!
