Meeting the Doctor..then came cross trainer

I've been constantly meeting the Doctor since I passed out some months ago...Other than blood and cholestrol, others not much a problem. Dr. Sharifah is lecturing me all the time about exercise. I only do 20 mins walking saturday and sunday..and thats it...itu pun sometimes cilok gak la..maklum la weekend kan, macam2 come up. 'That's not enough, do 40 mins' dr said..No time la Dr!! There is no such things as no time - Dr dah marah aku. 'Look at me, I take time to exercise every morning, patients can wait..but your health cannot'. (aku pun terpikir, aku kena tunggu dekat 1 jam lebih kalau nak jumpa Dr., exercixe rupanya..). So after a few session, aku kena brainwash, rasa cam nak join balik lunchtime aerobic kat ofis ikut puan. Tapi pikir pulak, aku perfer lunch time dengar ceramah or just rest.


So here's comes cross trainer. After heavy consultations with abang and a lots of visit to fitness store - we decide on cross trainer. We take time to decide sebab hari tu dah pernah beli exercise bike. It become white elephant in no time..boring giler. Hope this time its OK..need to have this for cardio and fat. Lets see from and back shot of this. This think is more suitable for knee sensitive people compare to threadmill. So this is the right thing for me and abang la I supposed.
For the first few weeks - I only want to do 10 mins. I thinks its enough la..May be next time I increase. Biar sikit2 tapi consistent. Abang do 15 to 20 mins. Next time I go for Dr. I got something to brag about..I exercise everyday now Dr...
Long live cross trainer...hopefully..

It's Baba Day

Yes, its father's day again. So as usual I will join the club when it comes to celebrating this over commercialized day. I mean, my kids also keep reminding me of what we should do for their beloved 'baba'. During mother's day, they also suprised me with delicious overly sinful cake from Secret Recipe. Aiyoo..habis my diet laa..
Its a quiet sunday really, with lazy rain in betweem. Syahmi always miss event like this. Cant come back because there is motivational camp over the weekend. But then its ok..we have already used to him not around since he went to boarding school 3 years ago. I actually bought Baba 2 shirts few weeks back. Nicely wrap and rest near bedside...waiting to be presented.
Baba likes it. He has no fuss of what to wear as long as the color does not scream too much.


Specialty of the day is of course the cake. Baked and decorated on my own. It's a moist chocolate cake, then I top it up with home made fudge - very simple but delicious. Then add the sugar paste left over from last raya...OK la not bad. Every body love it. Quite sometime I did not do baking. Biasanya every 2 weeks bake something, ini dah makan bulan ni...my Neesa now also can bake cakes. So sometimes just leave it to her.




And then there is always handmade cards by Baby. She always wrote such a serious thoughtful message that makes you feel proud to be a father...or a mother.


It's raining, but its a warm day. Happy farther's day to baba...with millions love from team members...


Ciao

Life for the Past Year

First I take a month break..then I take a year break...itulah aku, tak lah consistent cam Telipuk. Kadang tu rasa nak letak gambar. Kalau tak bawak gambar tak buat. Pastu langsung tak buat. Tak pe lah. Aku ingat aku just continue blogging simply. Maknanya kalau tak de gambar pun tak per...tak yah la perfect sangat. He..he..he...well this is just for me only. Saja lepaskan stress kerja seharian. So now, a year later many things have happen. Starting from where I left last time, Palin dah beranak. Many hardship she has gone through and face and I've to be there to support her since I'm in KL. But this is what we have to do as family. Sometimes we feel that we are not strong to put through it. But we found strength. Thanks to Allah for giving me the strength and resources, also give others around me the strength and patience as well. I pray that all the hardship will end soon.

Looking back in the past year, many things had happened - some good some bad. I believe in Rukun Iman ke-6, percaya kepada qada dan qadar, especially when it comes to bad (or not so favorable) things that happened to me or people close to me. Because I can never thank Allah enough for the good things that He has given to me and my entourage (my family and people close to me). Allah...I thank you for the all the good things that you have rewarded me and especially for the strength and resources that comes with the dugaan that you gave me...May You bless us for life and after life..amin.

Till next time...chow..
