Weighed in: Officially down 9 pounds!! Looking & feeling a lot healthier!!
Casual Jean Friday at work so I finally pulled out some Straight Sevens Jeans that I got like 4 months ago and decided to try them on. When I had purchased them...they were snuggly tight...and this morning...that wasn't the case..now they're too big on me :(  Oh wells, I still wore them anyways.

 During my lunch today, I was planning to go to the mall just to walk around...BUT instead I went to Trader Joe's! Picked up a few items: Organic Gala Apples, Organic Banana chips (for Post Slenderiix), a can of Organic Pumpkin (planning to bake my first pumpkin pie very soon!!), and a bag of Milk Chocolate Peanut Butter Pretzels!! No no, NOT FOR ME...I got it for my hunny..Haven't seen him all week so I decided to be sweet and bring him something! =)

Because I have a class after work tonight...my dinner is simple, fast, and convenient: Peach Pure Nourish with 12oz of Organic Ricemilk.

Busy weekend ahead and yet again this weekend will be going by very fast!
Davis/Sacramento tonight.
Birthday Celebration for a good friend Saturday.
Sunday: Hun's childhood friend birthday celebration back in the Bay Area and maybe attend fleet week, Blue Angels Air Show, since it was canceled last year due to the weather!  Hopefully the weather remains beautiful just how it was this entire week...although it appears the cooler temperature is finally coming in!

Anyways, have a great weekend everyone!! =D

 Finally getting into the 107's.  It did take longer than I thought, but I'm getting there!  

Definitely enjoyed another unusual sunny and warm day in the Bay again.  During my lunch break I decided to get gas because I received an email saying that there was going to be a .05-.50 gas hike!  Luckily I was able to get gas before it hiked up...although it still cost me $57 bucks to fill up the XLR.  Gas is now 4.79 for premium in the area I live in.

Getting home from work, I was feeling pretty exhausted so I didn't want to spend too much in the kitchen.  Simply mixed cooked organic quinoa and salsa and baked it in the oven for the crispiness.  Had a small bowl with an apple. I also baked zucchini with quinoa/salsa mixed again for my lunch tomorrow because it was that good!

Happy Birthday Daddy! <3

What my desk usually looks like every morning.
Pure Water-check. Slenderiix-check. Breakfast-check. Supplements-check =)

Another beautiful day, decided to have my lunch by the water and went for a walk.

Coming home from work, I searched through my fridge to see what I can make and decided to keep it simple and fast.  Wasn't sure how it was going to taste but I just wanted to experiment....I sliced up one zucchini and topped it off with an organic quinoa & organic salsa mixed.  Baked it in the oven for about 15 minutes and it came out sooo scrumptious.  I literally finished my dinner so fast! (dinner was served with half a nectarine that my co-worker gave me and a 1/4 cup serving of Peach Pure Nourish)

 Weighed in:
I wasn't so surprised that my weight remained the same...noticed I gained .2 pounds since yesterday. 
Eating late at night + some sweets will slow down Slenderiix.  Hopefully I don't plateau again.

At work, I'm preparing for the holidays and I have been receiving tons of catalogs for gift baskets and this page caught my attention...cookies, cheesecakes, sweets...mmm...looking at the picture was satisfying enough though.  Having the major sweet tooth that I do....or did..I'm surprised I haven't caved and just ate sweets like no tomorrow yet! lol.  Slenderiix helps curve cravings..and for sure it has done that for me.  I noticed when I am craving some sweets though, a Peach Pure Nourish or cheerios with organic rice milk will satisfy it. =)

Absolutely gorgeous day in the Bay so I decided to enjoy the outdoors. 
Went for an hour stroll with an apple and my Puritii Bottle.

After getting off of work, I had couple errands to run.  I had to deliver a Slenderiix & Peach Pure Nourish to a customer in the city.  I ended up driving to the wrong place and got lost because I put Street instead of Avenue! But it was okay because I was able to see the city at night and the view was spectacular!  I eventually got to my destination and delivered the products!! Shout out to Amy [Hi Amy!! =)] for reading my blogs and actually purchasing products that I have been consuming (Quinoa + Ricemilk).  Pretty awesome to hear others taking action!! So when I finally came home, it was around 9 so I didn't want to eat too late so I just had an apple.  I also prepped my lunch for the following day: Quinoa with salmon and green beans + an apple.

Gorgeous day in Pacifica but we went to Sacramento and it's 99 degree temperature.  Supported our local friends Brian & Edmund's Wash & Floss car wash event.
KaizenVIP represents.

After the event, I wasn't feel well and took a 2 1/2 hour nap.  The BF woke me up and told me his mom was waiting for us, so we went over to her house.  The family was waiting for us to arrive so we can sit down and enjoy a MoonCake Festival dinner.  I was going to decline to eat, since it was already 930pm, but to be respectful and courtest, I had myself some authentic + fairly healthy Chinese food! We had a mushroom/bell pepper dish, a green bean/lamb dish, pork dish, and a lamb soup with mooncake and watermelons.  Dinner + dessert was really good, but I just couldn't help but think how many days that dinner will set me back...LOL

Saturday morning consists of us attending training to learn from our mentor!
In our line of work, we want things to be "easy to digest" and applicable.
Knowledge + application = transformation.
Always room for Kaizen (constant improvements/constant development). 
Even during training, I have my food packed and ready to be eaten.  On the go means get creative...so I had my breakfast in a blender bottle...easy, fast, and convenient ;).  After training, the BF was hungry so we went to get him food, Filipino sisig!

After getting home, it was a chill Saturday....we took care of some business/website collaborations with our leaders.  Can't wait for our website to launch!

Week Plateaued!

Happy Friday!!  After work, had my appointment and then came home to cook, freshen up, and now ready for bed.  I spend my Friday night cooking my meals for the weekend...that's dedication right there! haha.  My food for the weekend includes salmon, tilapia, chicken breasts, baked asparagus, hard boiled eggs and quinoa. Fresh, quick, and healthy! Anyways, have a great weekend everyone!

Weighed in: 108.9 pounds!

Finally broke the plateau after my apple day--getting into the 108!!  I was stuck in the 109 range for a week which was disappointing for me since I was dropping almost a pound everyday the first week! I don't know exactly why I was stuck in the 109's for the longest time but I think it was due to my monthly menstrual cycle.  Previous times when I have done Slenderiix (11 days and 7 days), I made sure to do it around my monthly cycle, but since I am doing a full 30 days, I didn't know how my body was going to adjust to it.  We shall see how my next week goes and if I'm able to drop almost a pound a day, then I believe it had to do with my body personally.

For breakfast, I had my usual cup of Cherrios and Organic rice milk, along with an apple, and a bottle of water with Restoriix.  For lunch I had napa cabbage with quinoa&grilled chicken, and seaweed (only 45 calories a pack!).  I also had an apple to go along with it.
Maybe I was still full from the lunch, but I was not hungry after work.  I was busy running errands & had an appointment to attend so all I had for dinner was an apple and a cup of Organic rice milk, which was enough to satisfy me that evening!

Apple Day!
Weighed in:

 

  Since being stuck and plateauing in the 109 range, I finally decided to do an apple day to see if I can break this plateau.  All I had today was 5 apples and tons of water (I drank at least 112oz of water )!  Surprisingly the apples were able to keep me full throughout the entire day + the water kept me hydrated although I urinated at least 9x that day! LOL 

When I got home, I had my apple and made lunch for Thursday & Friday.

Napa cabbage/Bok Choy with quinoa + grilled chicken.

Sad I was only able to drop .1 pounds.  I'm not exactly sure why I was only able to drop that much.

Had my usual breakfast.

Lunch&Dinner: Bok Choy + Quinoa.  I decided to cut out chicken or fish for the day to see how my body adjust to it.  Quinoa is a complete protein anyways.

The Boyfriend was hungry so I decided to make it a vegan day for both of us.  Just made a quick plate of bok choy, tomatoes, and eggs over quinoa dinner for him.  He devoured the entire plate in like 5 minutes.  Either he was really hungry or it was really good, or maybe both :)

Happy Monday! Back to work again after a super fast weekend.  I didn't have lunch prepared so I just had a Peach Purenourish and an apple.  Coming home from work, I was hungry and decided to put something together fast.  I had left over grilled chicken so I just tossed some over a bed of salad.  Quick, fast, and simple yet still fulfilling!  I also made some lunch & dinner for the next day and decided to keep it vegan friendly.  Just some quinoa and baby bok choy!

After a night of hanging out with good friend, woke up and immediately got ready to have lunch before going to Lexus Dealership for a car meet + BF's car photoshoot.  Totally forgot to take a picture of my weight unfortunately :(
Anyways, we met up with Mr. EK for lunch at Arigatos.  I had fresh sashimi and when I asked them to sear it, they said it would be an extra $1 charge..even with the sashimi slightly seared...it wasn't a pleasant lunch which left me a little disappointed (Sapporo's seared sashimi was amazing and Arigato's just couldn't compare to it!).  I didn't eat raw before, but I'm trying to open up my taste & texture buds so I ended up eating ginger with the sashimi (which that too, I never eat before!)  The BF had mixed tempura with a Don Buri (I thik that's what you call it...but it's eel) over rice.

After lunch, we headed to the Lexus Dealership for a car meet and after we went to Sacramento State to do the car photoshoot.
Just a quick shot of the cars the BF + friends were shooting with: Nissan GTR, Audi R8, and Cadillac XLR.
After shooting at Sac State we went to another location to shoot in the Greenhaven area.
After that, we went to Starbucks to handle business then took my little sister out to eat.  Dinner at Chevy's.  The little sister had chicken quesadilla while the boyfriend had some jalapeno steak tacos.  Me on the other hand, I had a Peach Pure Nourish shake and an apple. =)

 Weighed in:  I gained .3 pounds from Friday's weigh in and this was due to eating while I was cooking so late at night!  Slenderiix recommends to not eat after 7:30...BUT the food smelt soo good that I couldn't resist snacking while I was cooking..lol.  Just munched on quinoa and some cat fish here and there but again, the Slenderiix is sensitive.  Eating so late at night doesn't allow the body to fully digest the food.  So this was definitely my fault.

Had our morning trainings and then hung around for a bit.  Later in the evening we went to our friend's Rodger house to celebrate his birthday.  Hope you had a good one! =)

Friday, September 21st, 2012 Continued: 

Had my appointment after work so I made sure my dinner was packed and ready to eat while I waited to go in.  After getting home, I had to pack for Sacramento but also decided to make my meals for the weekend.  Lots of greens, catfish fillet, quinoa, and apples.  Also packed my Peach Pure Nourish, Organic rice milk, some dill pickles, and of course, can't for get my supplements.  After everything was ready to go, didn't get to Sacramento till 1:30am.  Definitely a long day and was ready to knock out.
