21DFC Day 0: Pre-Work: Create Your 21-Day Exercising Plan!

While I’m still running my 21DHL, here I have another challenge coming in from Personal Excellence!! The challenge that's gonna start tomorrow will be 21DFC (21 Day Exercising Challenge), which is to exercise for 21 days without fail.

You do not need to exercise very hard everyday. It can be 5 minutes, 10 minutes, or even more. As long as there is a physical exercise, it counts. And daily, post a comment in the blog post to share what kind of exercise have been done, how long and what’s the feeling towards the exercises. It’s simple~!

If you are interested, you are encouraged to join! It is a self-committed program, no one is gonna judge us, and we are the one to judge ourselves.

Here are my details regarding 21DFC.

>> My Key Objectives for 21DFC (3 Feb – 23 Feb)
1. To exercise for at least 10 minutes without fail for the next 21 days.
2. To reduce my weight for at least 3kg.
3. To increase my stamina to run

>> My Game Plan for 21DFC
- Do stretching or self massage for at least 5 minutes every day.
- Cycling for at least twice a week.
- Swimming for at least once within these 21 days.
- Go hiking with friends / family at least twice within these 21 days.

>> My Biggest Obstacles
1. Laziness
2. Rain when I plan to go for outdoor exercises
3. Lack of time to exercise after working hours
4. Too tired to exercise

>> My Strategy To Tackle the Obstacles
1. Keep reminding myself to exercise, even for only 5 minutes
2. Do home aerobics / jump ropes / run at place as a replacement of the outdoor exercises
3. Wake up earlier to do 10 ~ 20 minutes of exercise before go to work
4. Walk for 5 ~ 10 minutes at home

21DJC–Day 3 - What is Your Ideal Diet Like?

This is the 3rd day of DJC that I started off from Personal Excellence website. Today, the journal will be about my ideal diet.

Well, I’m not a person who cares about diet a lot. I have no balance diet. I like most of the chicken and pork meals. But, I still feel that the meals prepared by my late grandmother and my mum are the best.

My late grandmother was a good cook. She could turn all sort of raw cooking materials into delicious dishes, by adding in her own recipes. Everyday, she must have a fish as our dish for either lunch or dinner. Vegetable is for sure a must.

Whereas, my mum, although she can’t cook as good as my grandmother (I’m sorry to say that, mum ), but she knows what I like and what I don’t like. She konws that I like chicken and pork more than fish, so she always cooks chicken or pork as dishes. She knows my dad likes soup, so she must have a soup during dinner. She knows my younger bro doesn’t like to eat fish because of the fish bones, so she cooks fish without fish bones.

However, for now, as I’m keeping fit for a free travel (I will talk about that some time later XD ), I started to take fish more than chicken and pork. I take vegetables as much as I can. It’s lucky that I don’t really like junk food like snacks, and I seldom drink soft drink. Thus, it is not hard for me to keep my diet.

I’m just trying to take less food per meal, and do more exercise. I hope that I can make it! ^^
