it was a celebration of many reasons. for turning another year older, for getting my dream rotational post, and for moving to a different part of the country.
the birthday dinner was fun, even though it was just the two of us;-)
--
Sukothai restaurant..
the next day, i started my new job, where i found out, i was so unfit and got so tired by noon. (while fifty-something colleagues walked faster than me,and were breathing normally up and down the stairs. it was a wake up call). topping it all, everyone were so into keeping healthy in my workplace that i couldnt help but get inspired to do the same.
on the 27th, i decided i need to shape up. (well, the above reasons, and a lot more got me into exercise once again).
the starter
thai inspired vases
my partner in crime
but of course;-)
prawn pad thai
pork in black bean sauce
yummy food
my fave special rice
another pork dish

get active. slow, baby steps. a 1 or 2 year plan to get to my goal weight. no crash dieting, no crash whatsoever, no shortcuts. no dieting,even. (the diet change came when i started losing some weight,and i got even more challenged to do more)
just a lifestyle change. not even an overhaul. and that's another blog altogether.

Wishing you more blessings and more years! :)
