Food tracking is a habit I picked up about 5 years ago when I started training with @movementdynamicsfit but I’ve only started taking it seriously this lockdown as I’ve just been home.
I even go to the extent of weighing all the food and drinks I consume.
I’m thankful for my parents who are so supportive of my fitness journey and do not mind my crazy behaviour!
I use this app called “MyFitnessPal” to track the macros of the food I consume daily.
It gives me info on the % of protein, fat and carbs which makes me more conscious of the food I put into my body. At the beginning, food tracking was a nightmare. I HATED THE PROCESS SO MUCH because it was tedious and it can be quite tricky to track if you’re out dining and sharing food with friends.
However, this process got so much easier since I’ve been stuck at home! So slowly food tracking has become a big part of my life now. I track every single thing that I eat and drink! It’s become an obsession haha
The fun part is, along the way, I actually learned so much about nutrition.
e.g.
100g chicken breast= 3.6g fat & 31g protein
Whereas 100g chicken thighs= 8g fat & 24g protein
This is why I have switched to eating chicken breast instead of thighs/drumsticks as the fat percentage is relatively low.
My current fitness goal is to gain muscle mass & lose fat. I do not starve myself, I eat whenever I feel hungry, but I try to opt for healthier options. So I’ve drastically reduced fried/oily and sugary food.
Of course, balance is key. There are days where I eat desserts as well but I only take a small portion because when I discovered 50g of a tiny slice of yam cake I took the other day carried 200 kcal, I got shocked 😮
So anyways, the top 3 REASONS why my trainer asked me to track my diet are;
1) When I report to my trainer, there is more accountability and thus more discipline
- Having someone to be accountable to increases consistency and ultimately leads to better results
2) I learn more about the food I consume and my eating habits when I put in the effort to track myself
3) When I send my report to my trainer, he is able to learn more about my lifestyle and eating habits which allows him to optimise my programme

No, it’s not easy.
Everything that’s worth having, isn’t.
I have been struggling with bloating since I was a kid and as I grow older, the issue is becoming more apparent and now each time after I eat, I feel really uncomfortable.
I’ve seen quite a number of gastro doctors and they all gave me similar advice; cut down on dairy and processed/oily food, refined sugar, alcohol, etc as these madderf*ckers are the contributing factors to my bloating problem.
They also told me to eat slower and to take smaller meals.
I never really listened to their tips and just did as I pleased, which most certainly had it’s consequences - me feeling extremely sluggish and unproductive when I consume certain foods.
I know eating tasty but unhealthy food can immediately put us in a better mood, but this instant gratification doesn’t serve me and my body in the long term.
So, I’ve decided to change up my meals to strike a more balanced diet which eliminates a big portion of foods that I really enjoy; desserts and beverages containing dairy.
To be honest, it’s a challenge. My body is currently fighting its own battle trying to adapt to this new pattern and I find myself feeling hungry and craving for sugary food!
Therefore, fruits are now my go to whenever I crave for something sweet!
The upside of this challenge is that, my stomach feels better and less bloated now so I hope to be consistent with this pattern!
I’m also on a journey to getting stronger and fitter through fitness!
A lot of people ask how I find motivation to exercise, especially on bad days.
Actually, all you need to do is to be stronger than your excuses! Make fitness a non-negotiable.
On lazy days, I force myself out of bed, change into my gym wear and blast my ‘Beast Mode’ playlist out loud! This usually does the trick for me!
As much as I try to commit to working out at least 5 times/week, I fail to adhere to it sometimes, but you know what, I never give up.
I just keep trying and trying.
Fitness is a lifelong commitment and I can assure you, only good things come out of it!
I want to be able to have the energy to continue to lead a healthy and active life even when I’m in my 60’s ✌🏾

Video - The Twins enjoying Lunch
Some babies are fussy eaters .
But certainly not these twins .
They eat almost everything from Carrots , Brocolli , Avocados …
We usually start with purée fruits and vegetables .
Some tips
Feed them when really hungry . Avoid milk 2-3 hours prior to meals .
Introduce varieties of food .
Plain water in between gulps.
Make feeding fun with songs .
Praise them when they finish their portions .
No salts added .
No sugary drinks .
Keep a healthy lifestyle with just plain water .
Once you start sugary drinks , they would never want to drink plain water ever again …

made with sponge cake, custard, and fruit, this is a very nice dessert to share with family and friends. It's delicious and pretty, great for a get-together. I made this recipe to use up all the egg white and yolk, so you will not have any leftover yolk like other recipes.
Recipe:
Ingredients for the cake
5 egg white
sugar 100g
butter 40g
lemon juice 1 tbsp (optional)
lemon zest 1tbsp (optional)
milk 2tbsp
flour 150g
baking powder 1 tsp
vanilla 1 tsp
pinch of salt
Custard Fruit cake/ german fruit cake
Ingredients for the custard
5 egg yolk L
sugar 100g
butter 40g
milk 2 cups
vanilla 2 tsp
pinch of salt
fruits of your choice
Tips:
1. don't over mix the batter when incorporating flower
2. it's better to use cake flour. but if you don't have, use all-purpose
3. my oven needed 16 minutes baking time but you might need 2 -3 minutes more depending on your oven type. feel free to adjust.
4. you can adjust the consistency of your custard by increasing the corn starch a little.

Karumeyaki, known in Western countries as honeycomb toffee or sponge toffee, is a sugary toffee with a fluffy, sponge-like texture. It is made by heating a mixture of brown sugar, sweet syrup and water, and then adding in baking soda to cause the toffee to rise and set.
