Love yourself:)

Hey..

It has definitely been a while but I have been thinking of updating this for so many days now but i finally pushed everything aside and have decided to do this!

So first things first, Fitness fitness fitness..

I have now come into week 4/12 of my cutting first cutting cycle of the year, have been eating clean 6 days a week with one cheat day a week, and training four days a week. I started off the cycle at 91.3kg's and hit my lowest of 3 weeks to be 87.3 kg's. It was a great feeling to be really living a healthier lifestyle and working hard towards the results that I want. But sadly every TIME I make some progress, I will most definitely fall ill and this time was no different. I felt like I was hitting a momentum for the past 3 weeks and starting this Monday, I came down with fever and flu, which most definitely cuts out training, and when I am sick and I down train I somehow seem to lose the motivation to eat clean and at most times all the loss that I have achieved over the past few weeks, would seemingly find its way back to me. 

This time I intend to change that, it has been 3 days in the week and I have been eating dirty but I have told myself that I am going to put a stop to it and not let this be my permanent story. There is a high chance that I wont be able to train for the rest of the week but from tomorrow I am going to take control of the rest of my week and stay clean for the next four days, the damage that has been done has been done, there is no use looking back into the past. What I have to do is to wake up early tomorrow, prepare the days meals and remind myself to stay clean all day long, I know I can do this.

Not being able to step into the gym has caused me to feel pretty down on myself and I have realized that it somehow plays a part of who I am and shakes my confidence. I realized that today as I woke feeling very bluey and really disliking the person I saw in the mirror, I really am not sure if this is a good thing or a bad thing. I know that it could be serious motivation to be a person of this nature, but at the same time, I realized that this is not right. No matter how you may look or feel it is always important to firstly LOVE YOURSELF! Because it is one thing to have the body of your dreams but if you dont love yourself now, you're not gonna love yourself then. This is a message that I want to send out to every reader out there, it does not matter how you look right now, keep putting the effort in as each ounce of effort that you put in will not go to waste, you may not see the results now, you may feel bad for falling off your cycle or plan time and time again but as long as you love yourself, you would LOVE yourself enough to get back on that program because you would want to be the best version of yourself. As much as I am writing this to everyone out there, I am writing this to myself. So here is what i want you to do, write yourself a love letter and express to yourself how much you love...YOU! go ahead its gonna feel great!:)

Feeling very sluggish after 3 days of eating dirty and not exercising but tomorrow
its back to clean foods but sadly I cant work out yet.

When it all goes wrong

Have you ever had one of those days, where you feel like everything just goes wrong? Today is not one of those days, it was kind of worse. I have been struggle recently with my emotions, trying to get a grip on it and control it, I don't know if there are any guys out there that can relate with me, but I am one of those people that are at the extreme end of the extrovert spectrum. Where most people see extroverts as individuals who are loud and happy go lucky, most people don't know that the extroverts source of energy is sourced externally, based on his surrounding. I am one of these people that are so influenced by my surrounding and circumstances, like any emotion that I feel is shown all over my face, and I have been made to believe that this is just bad.

Screwing up my quiz, I studied pretty hard for my quiz, clocked the hours in, and when it came down to it, it was a silly mistake that caused me 5 precious marks in my quiz, I go really hard on myself and I just wanted to break down and cry in the midst of a class full of people so what I did was I went to the toilet and did that, came out and was questioned if I went to shit, in front of a crowd which was rather embarrassing  On top of that the class that I attended in the afternoon was a very low energy class which was driving me to a point of depression. It was just piling on one another. Then the day slowly began to get better.

Then it was time for carecell, everything was great but I knew I was tired, and when I am tired I am easily swayed by my emotions, picked up a call from a cell member that spoke extremely rudely where I questioned him why he was talking so rudely, and after that, there were some jokes made and I wish I could have stayed composed but I lost it but took it out in a humorous manner, and just to be in the place, brought back memories, on how I was an AL and I just to think that I thought that I had grown into maybe a carecell leader or a sectional leader but I was an AL just was heart breaking, whereby I was at the venue where carecell was held where I was an AL, and how the carecell leader was coming in and saying all the right things at the right time, and I was not. Just internal thought on how a disappointment I am in myself. Just heard that whole voice saying you are nothing more than a failure, a loser, a disappointment and nothing more and how I could not even control my face, cos as I was mentioning in the earlier paragraph, when I am disheartened it shows all over my face. On top of that just the disability to assign people to pray for the prayer needs, added to that..there was a knife in cell, just wanted nothing more to stick that in me, and to end everyones misery, the misery of my church for thinking I was ready to be a leader, to misery of myself for how much I had disappointed myself, the people around me so that they didnt have to bear with my mistakes and emotions anymore, just wished it could end, and with all that thought running in my mind, and my eyes just about to break into tears, I whispered a call to heaven, Dear Lord, please Help me.

With that I managed to calm myself down, and smile and just went to the kitchen and talked it out with my carecell leader. On my way home, it was a hard long drive home, asking God, what is He trying to do with me, why me, why so much pain, why cant i be like the other people that no matter what can be calm and can think thoroughly without showing any emotions, why must I be like this. A simple word of no mistakes, was replied. I believe He was telling me, He makes no mistakes, and I believe Him.

If you are reading this, and you are having a rough time, as much bad stuff may be going on in your life, always remember in the midst of trial comes opportunity to be grateful. If I messed my quiz up, then I could thank God for the motivation to study the next quiz, If people were to cause me some embarrassment, I was gonna laugh it off and survive, If I was made to be a feeling person, I could be grateful, at least I could share whatever pain that others are going through, If I am sent right to the bottom then it is an opportunity to learn again from the bottom, this is the secret of living a better life, just knowing as emotional and feeling and intuitive I am, there are people that will see me for the person that I am, and whoever you are, just take a deep hard look around you, there are people that might be loving you despite your flaws that you might have overlooked or ignored previously, be grateful for them, be grateful for the breath that you have been borrowed, be grateful for mistake that you've made, be grateful for failures, be grateful for disappointment, because the good side is, there will always be a good side to anything, remember tonight, that you are NO MISTAKE, God makes NO mistakes! You are made in the image and likeness of God, and you are getting closer to your goals, with every fall you rise one step close, because behind every successful man, there were many unsuccessful tries, goodnight!:)

Learn, Unlearn, Re-learn.

There are many key to successes, but for today I think it would be apt to say one of those vital keys is the attitude to learn, unlearn and re-learn. It takes a huge load of humility and a large chunk of self denial to do so. All this concluded from another cell planning with Mr. Matt Leong. This guy never fails to impress me and challenge my thinking towards my outlook in life, all in a way that does not put you down but makes you think. As I have written in my previous post, I was once commissioned to be of equal position of him, but now listening to him speak awakens me to the fact that I am no where near his capability and magnitude of wisdom. A lot of concepts about success in carecell that I always thought was the 'right way of doing things' falls into the extreme end of the spectrum of being wrong. With this said and done, I can completely and easily choose to be defeated, tired or brought down, and the fact that the person that is leading me is one of those guys that was once my juniors, requires a huge chunk of my pride and ego to be swallowed, but in the end of the day I ask myself why I am doing all of this for, who am I doing it all for..It always comes down to the simple answer that Jesus DIED on the cross for ME. Nothing that I can do can lie in comparison to what He has done for me, the magnitude of his love for me, and the number of times that He has picked me up in the midst of my filt and tell me, son, brush the dirt of your shoulders and keep going, I love you. For Him if I have to deny everything of who I am, break all vain obsession and to surrender every part of my life, if I have to die to myself daily, I would do so for Him, then and only then I would be able to learn to learn, unlearn and re-learn what it is to love others as much as God loves them, goodnight:)

Nobody succeeds alone

Let me start the story at yesterday night, where I spent a couple of hours planning a compound workout plan as well as a calorie deficit diet, I went to bed feeling really pumped and excited as today cutting began. I woke up this morning however, feeling the least bit motivated to do anything. I wanted to make my eggs breakfast but didnt wanna do it, I wanted to get ready for the gym but didnt want to do it, all in all I just wanted to roll back into my bed and sleep again. Then, this picture flashed across my mind, so I just left the house. Getting to the gym was nothing different, as I felt just as unenthusiastic about anything.

But as soon as I go to the gym, I saw these two guys from my college, clocking time in and hard at work. Seeing that there are others out there reaching towards the same goals as I was, I felt my spirits slowly being lifted.

After speaking to them, I was all pumped and ready when I thought of just weighing to get a weight before I start the entire cutting just to be able to see the difference once its dont, low and behold for all I know this was the results that came out! 13% body fat?! There was never once in this lifetime where my body had that little fat ever! I was even more excited. The event that occured after this blew me away. 

So, after a warm up session, I started working on my squats cross push up exercise and when it was done, Justin the dude on the right in the picture above, came up to me and gave me a banana saying hey man, this will give you some energy to finish your workout.

 I was mind blown by his kindness that he would do such an act. I managed to finish all my exercise, ate his banana did 10mins of high intensity cardio and left the gym. To think that this little gesture of his would have given me that vital motivation to keep going, inspired me to write this post.

What I am trying to get at is nobody succeeds alone. We were never created to be that way or function in such a manner. We need each other, to push us, to support us, to tell us that we can get up and try again although we've failed for the upteee-th time. We need each other. I personally train alone in the gym as my times are pretty unpredictable but just to have these guys from college there in the gym, gives me the courage to keep striving forward knowing that I am not the only one that wants this, that there are others out there working towards the same goal, and if you are reading this and no matter what it is in life that you are trying to achieve, look for people that are going to believe in you, people that are going to help you plan and most importantly people that love you enough to tell you, hey...you are going in the wrong direction. Because in the end of the day, no matter how far you go or how much you achieve, non of it is ever going to be worth it if you don't have anyone to celebrate your success with. With each other we can go through this and we can come out on top as victors. So I would like to end this post by saying, remove the negative voices in your life, looks for the one that love you enough to pull you up when you are down, pull you back when you are going in the wrong direction and one that are willing to spend the time pulling the potential out of you and transforming that into successes, lets win this together, goodnight.

Digging deep.

A couple of nights ago, I was asked a very serious question by one of my life coaches; what in the hell do I wanna do with my life? As I sat down and thrashed it out with him, there were so many endeavors that I put my hand into with nothing concrete in it. I am pretty much the most emotional male you might ever meet. That contributes to my strength and failure which also plays a huge part in my decision making whereby a whole load of shots are called when I am feeling a certain way. As our conversation got deeper, the actualization got clearer that everything that I put my hands into was for one sole purpose, which was to touch and change another life. From the days of teaching tuition, to working with Hitz.fm, to starting the Lightbulb group, to wanting to initiate an idea called Sleeping with the lights on, to trying out my hand at business with Brown Sugar Shoes, all of it was done to make another life better...and did I mention I failed at everyone of those things miserably. This had credited to the fact that I was unreliable on decision making which contributed to me being a weak leader. This was one of those pills I had to swallow even as bitter as it tasted. I had come full circle as a leader in church too,whereby I started of as an Associate Leader to a Carecell Leader, commissioned as Sectional Leader and now 3 years later back to being an associate leader starting back at square one, in other words the biggest failure out there (this is a feat no one has performed before). Hahaha I sure do suck at a lot of things, but one thing I also suck at is quitting. So after a night of thrashing thoughts out, I came to a conclusion that I'm gonna set my mind on something and dig deep into it, alright all set; but wait! What is it that I am going to dig deep into?

Another hurdle.

I thinked about it, I dont have any conventional passions; music, sports, arts, fashion, food..none of these amuse me, maybe for a little while but had never lasted long. And so we spoke of where were the hours in my day going to cos I'm running around most of the time. Low and behold the one consistent thing that I have been doing since I was 16, fighting the war against fat! It all clicked, I woke up and I told myself If there is one thing im going to dig deep into this year is to get into the best shape of my life. I have been working out consistently for the past 5 months as well, but with not too much drive, but all that is about to change.

I took the last 2 hours of my life out to device a workout and dietary plan suited to my body after research and now I am ready, as I embark on a serious cutting streak for the next 12 weeks, its time to go hard and go home. Why am I doing this you may ask Perhaps. It is because of this kid right here.

Age 16, 95kg's.

I was obese almost my entire life, and I decided to make a change for it, and this is me back in high school with the biggest size I've been, the least self esteem I've had, and pretty much bullied a lot. So why I am doing this again? I am doing this not only for myself but for everyone out there that has faced anything I've been through, if I can make a change to how my body is shaped to be the best I can be, than who says that you can't. Take it from someone who has failed in almost every aspect of his life before, all you got to do, is get right back up, throw off the self pity and give it one more go, you can do this, you were made nothing short of greatness, give it all you've got. So, this is what my life is going to be about till the end of 2013, time in the gym, eating right, researching and getting into the best shape possible, so that I would be credible to tell others they can do it too. This is where I am beginning today and you should too. Goodnight!:)

You are my strength, 1/6

The word for today is definitely grateful. As I go to bed tonight, I am lost for words but to say thank you to my savior Jesus Christ. Just to summarize a couple of things that happened today. Actually yesterday when I was heading for the gym after a couple of days being down and out, my mom walks up to me, pulls out a new pair of gym gloves and tells me that she can't fit them and asks me if I want it. Then, when putting them into my bag already feeling eternally grateful, I just looked at my current gym bag and said, wouldnt it be nice if I had a nicer gym bag, when Mandy decides to call me and tell me her mom got me an early birthday gift...I am like what!! My birthday is no where near, its in october in fact, and low and behold, a brand new Adidas Bag! And when I saw it, perfect for gym, if that is not good enough. One of my mates, Matt, decides to ask me for my bank acc, and tell me he has got profit from a business adventure we embarked on somewhere last year. All these in One day!

I was stopped in my tracks to be reminded again, truly how good God really is, if only I just surrender everything to Him. My life was at an all time low this year just a couple of days ago, and now blessing after blessing after blessing. The best part is God knows how to love me, the way I want to be loved. And if all that is not good enough, He comes up through his word, through the apostle today, and slaps me across the face to remind me that I ought to have weaknesses cos only in my weakness can His strength and grace be made known. To be a little more specific, I was commissioned as a sectional leader early this year, and that was a great honor knowing that I would be serving God at a higher capacity whereby being a sectional leader would mean to look into more than one carecell. 6 months down the road, today I was in a way demoted back to an associate leader, whereby I am no longer functioning as a sectional leader, nor a cell leader but as an associate leader right where I started off in the carecell system 3 years ago, It didnt bother me, cos all I ever wanted to do was to serve, in whichever capacity given, but it was hard to swallow, which really made me feel like a failure, but todays entire message was about the fact that I have jelly on my hands, but God will still use them, in other words, no matter how many times I fail, God has a purpose, reason and plan for me, to be at that very place in my life, so I am just going to enjoy the journey there! So, I just said a prayer for all the sources God has used to blessed me, for God to bless them more! So that together we get to be a blessing to this world.

In other news, I managed to hit the gym today and due to the lack of time, managed to work on some isolations on the back, im hoping when I wake up tomorrow I'll be able to walk normally, and Mandy Teck if by any chance you are reading this, I want you to know that you are one of the best gifts God has blessed me with in this lifetime, thank you for being there through every moment, You truly are precious beyond words, thank you for teaching me to at times stand up for myself, and to get me the respect I deserve!:)

All in all, Jesus, You are my strength in everything I do, the reason behind I am who I am.

Starting from scratch

Every once in a while we all have to go back to where it all began, either for good or bad, we have to start over. I have been put in a place in my life where I have had to start from scratch for every aspect of my life. It is already June! Yes it is, and there is always two ways to look at things, either to look and believe that almost half the year is gone, or to embrace the next 7 months with arms wide open, and I choose the latter. As my previous post exclaims, I have been going through some tough times in areas of my life such as, leading a carecell, relationships, finance, family, my journey towards having my dream body by the end of the year, and achieving my goals, in short, EVERYTHING. I admit it I lose, I am defeated. But, don't count me out just yet. I'll try again. Yesterday morning, I took a couple of hours to reflect back on the past 5 months, and I realized that I have been busy-ing myself with things, agenda, activities that have lead me no where nearer to where I want to be. After having a sit down with one of my pals Matthew Leong, he basically instilled in me a new idea that if you are to succeed in something, you should know exactly what you did to succeed in it, and if you fail you also should know exactly what you did or did not do that caused you to obtain the results that you did. And it hit me, it was all true as hard as it was. I told myself, enough of the mourning, it is time to get right back up and continue the race, or in other words press on the restart button! So I sat down and really asked myself what I wanted to do with my life, where I wanted to see myself in the future, and what am I doing today that is going to get me there and as soon as I wrote that down, I sat down and charted my goals for the rest of the year, but I needed something more, I needed a drastic reminder to not lose sight of where I want to be again this year, and then this happened.

I cut my hair bald. Many have asked my why, some even said I just wanted some attention but I did it as an act of reminder that I have goals and plans and everyday that I wake up and look at my hair I will be reminded that I have to seize the minutes that I have been blessed with within those 24 hours if I am ever going to reach where I want to be, and I intend to keep this hair till the end of the year, I don't really care if it makes my head look really small compared to my big body I'm determined, I'm ready, I's charged up.

So, before I end tonight's post I would like to say that whoever you are, where ever you maybe reading this post from if you feel like you are in a place in your life that you are just stuck and you can't move anymore. SUCK UP THE SELF PITYAND GET GOING! You are a brilliant individual made in the image of God, you are given free will, You are a result of your choices, today you can choose to sulk and say that you life sucks or that you are just useless or a failure, if that is what you choose to see yourself as then that is exactly what you are going to be, but that is not who you were SUPPOSED to be. So, get up, start a fresh and get going. The only real time that you have failed is when you stop trying so keep going, keep fighting for whatever it is you want! You can do it, but you must be the one that wants to do it, it is alright if you fail, trust me..just dust the off the dirt from you shoulder, set your eyes once again on the price and if you have to, there is no harm in starting from scratch.

Goodnight!:)

The bitter taste of defeat.

The bitter taste of defeat, it is not one for the faint of heart but it is one that is crucial for the memory of the mind. Of all taste receptors implanted within each human being, I believe the taste of failure is one that is most difficult to be translated by the brain yet it is so vital. For from man's greatest defeats comes our greatest triumphs. Today, I looked into one of the areas of my life and I realized that I have failed. I have never been one to want to wallow in my sorrows, I ranted for a few moments, and then I told myself it was time to pick myself up again. We all fall apart, we all break down that makes us people, but the fact that from these defeats we can rise again; that makes us humans. Because as a human being we have a will, a choice as to how we would choose to respond. This can be applied to any area of your including fitness, if you would have missed your workout, had a very unhealthy meal or you may be right now sitting down and thinking that your whole life is gone, it is over because of a mistake you made..well let me tell you, it is not! So stop being sad and having a pity party because if you do that, you are not going anywhere. But if you should, make a choice rather to forgive yourself, and work twice as hard the next day, that would break you through your threshold and show the true spirit of your heart, which is the little voice that whispers to you that you can keep going! So whoever you are, don't give up, don't quit, make mistakes, but not the same mistake twice, because the second time you make the same mistake, that would be a choice you made and you would have to deal with the consequences.

A secret ingredient!

I really tried, but I found it hard to sleep, so I asked myself what are some of the things about bodybuilding that I was lacking knowledge about, and as my mind was scanning through my archives, SOY!!! This mysterious source of nutrition supplement has had its fair share of controversial backing  ranging from development of man-boobs, to poor testicular functions, to inducing female like character upon its users, I personally have been in a dilemma if I should or should not consume it and after reading this amazing article, friends get as much soy as you possibly can if you're planning on adding size to your muscle or even cutting down on your waist size!And im so grateful for my girlfriend's mom who has been blessing me with amazing servings of Melilia Organic Soy!

Now, I am simply going to summarize to you some of its benefits and if you would like to read up the whole article, you can find it in the link below:

Benefits:

1. Low Calories:

If you trying to cut down on the pounds, then soy is a delicious drink that you can add into your diet, a cup of light plain soy is only about 70 calories! yay for us!

2. Low glycemic and insulinemic index:

This means that one would stay in a fat-burning state! This is with lower insulin levels and a higher level of glucagon

3. High source of protein:

Enough said.

4. All rumors about Soy are untrue, based upon research.

So, I do hope that this is a helpful tip, and before i end this post i would like to say that the fact that you are trying to get from wherever you are to a better place makes you a winner! Despite how slow you may see progress or how nobody acknowledges the effort that you are putting in, keep going! Don't give up cos every little step that you take is getting you there, Goodnight!

A foreword

If you we're expecting killer abs and with the most well built body, I would like to apologize to you in advance as I am not that guy. My name is Aaron, I am 22 this year and I am on a journey. A journey of working towards being in the best shape of my life.

My current weight, 87.6 kg's

A little about me, I was born in Klang, a small town in the state of Selangor in Malaysia, and I have been obese from as long as I can remember. Growing up as the fat kid, caused me struggles from a day to day basis, which had lead me having a very low self image leading to self esteem issues a huge part of my teenage life. I did not want to meet new people, make new friends mostly because I was ashamed of how I looked. However, there was an entire different side of me that just knew that there was so much more out there in this world to experience if I could just muster up some courage or confidence to do so. Then when I was 16, my obesity took a turn for the worse as a casual visit to the doctors landed me in an area whereby if I did not do something about the fat in my face it was going to get me blind. My family decided to move to the city of Puchong where I had a chance of a brand new start with brand you people. I took the two month of holidays during the end of the year so start exercising. Little steps everyday, from walking to jogging to running. It was a process that was bringing progress, and during that holiday I managed to lose 10kgs which brought me from a waist size of 42 to 38.

It felt like a new dawn, it felt like fresh air, it felt like I was finally ready to start living my life. Ever since then I have been trying to get in the best shape possible. As there were many ups and many downs in this journeys, where my peak weight was 94 kg's and the lowest I have ever been was 82. This journey was tiring and disappointing whereby there were periods where I would lose a lot of weight, gain it back, lose a lot of weight gain it back, and if  you are reading this post and have been through the same process, im pretty sure you would know what that feels like. I joined georgeous fitness in May 2011, and have been working out ever since, but have never been too serious about it, but 5 weeks back I told myself, its time to get serious about this, it is definitely not going to be an easy journey but I am going to do it, 2013 is my year, I am going to get in the best shape of my life. To achieve anything in this life is not an easy task, what more the never ending journey of weight loss. Today, 21st of May 2013, was one of my lowest points in my 15 week program of moving towards a healthier lifestyle which i named #getleanordietrying, yes my lowest point after 5 weeks, my weight peaked again at 89.5 kg's which is the same weight which i started 5 weeks ago.

So what is this blog about, where in the world am I going with this, what do I know about fitness you may ask, and to answer all of these questions genuinely I don't really know. But what I do know is that I want to share my experience through this journey, I want to inspire, I wanna see others happy, I want others to know that they are not alone in their journey towards getting in shape and remind everyone that each and everyone of you are built for greatness and made to be winners, and that it is alright to fail, to cry, to feel pain, but most of all I want every reader to know that you can pick yourself up and keep walking, because the very moment where you feel like the hard work you are putting in is not worth the effort anymore, your muscles are so sore that you cannot move or you are gasping for air on the verge of giving up and your entire body is about to fail you; there is a gift that has been placed inside of you that tells you that you can keep going. The heart, the strongest of all muscles.
