Hello my dear readers,
And another month has gone. It is really incredible how fast the time goes by.
I hope all of you are doing well.
My July goal was to enjoy nature as much as possible and is what I did.

Beside enjoying nature, as work from home is still by default here in Singapore, I have used my saved time on commuting to and from work, pretty wisely. I have started to work out two times per day and I have also started counting my intake calories.
I don’t have issues with my weight but since time is flying by, I just want to keep up and stay in shape and maybe get a little bit more tonified.

I was never exaggerating with the food but when you start counting your intake in calories daily, you really realise that the quantity sometimes is not the most important but the quality.
Think that by eating natural food and very little processed, to reach around 1,500 calories per day, you’ll be amazed how much you need to eat.
No, I’m not on a diet, I’ve never been in my life, I’m just counting my intake calories, because I want a toned body and everyday I eat lots of veggies and fruits and fish and seafood and 1-2 times per week meat.

This month I have also received my first dose of vaccine and for 2 days my arm was very uncomfortable.
This month I also needed to do some medical visits that will continue in August too…what to do?…sometimes we need the doctors too.
On another side, me, that I’m not a very “social platforms” oriented person, I have also opened another Instagram page, to share a little bit of the nature’s beauty of Singapore and to try a little experiment. You may have seen my below post.
Some of my recent photos:
Nature is wonderful.
So yes, overall also July was a good month.
Now August is here, let’s hope will be a good one too.
For some, August is vacation month, for us is just another normal month like all the others. Especially now, that we cannot travel.
My August goal?
Be happy, stay in shape and enjoy nature as much as possible!
And maybe start working at some meal plans that I can share with you ๐ Would you be interested?
Wish you a wonderful month filled with happiness, health and lots of goal achievements, whatever your goals may be.
And happy vacation month for the lucky ones that can enjoy a vacation.

Happy August. I have also started tracking my calories as I have to lose weight. I am sticking to 1300 calories with one cheat day per week.
Not very easy as need to measure everything, but very worth it right? ๐ Iโm sticking with 1500 calories but honestly I have days with less๐ Good luck and have a wonderful month filled with achievements ๐๐๐คฉ
I agree. Itโs not easy at all. But I have to. Thank you so much for your good wishes.
Consistency is the key ๐ and the activity! More you burn calories, more you can eat and stay in shape ๐ ๐ช๐ป
