Minimal simple exercise to lose the pounds

I am clearly not the person to give advise. I cannot tell you what to do but I'll tell you what I did. Here's a back story. I had birth my children when I was still young. I was skinny and it made me conscious because I don't look like a mother instead I look like an older sister to my children- and it's not flattering. Teachers, Social workers and Doctors doesn't seemed to trust my own children with me because I look like a kid myself. So I piled on weight. At the same time my divorce was finalized and I was free. I was also started on medication. After a few months I had gained 20 kg and I became overweight. I intended for a little weight gain but not being obese. I look at the mirror and I was devastated. Over the years, in my twenties I battled weight gained and depleting confidence. Then the pandemic came. It was during the fasting month of Ramadhan that I started working out after breaking my fast. I lost only two kilos. Then when the lock down was slowly redu...

Finding Happiness


Happiness is a choice.
You are in control of how you feel.
You can decide to stop feeling 
like shit.
You get to decide who and what 
makes you happy.


Accepting everything for what it is.
If you planned something, you want it
to go your way and how you envisioned it.
Sometimes accepting a little setback 
or a little hardship, will help lower
the stress, anxiety and anger.
Lowering expectations of the 
actual experiences, will help you
enjoy the experiences more.
It goes the same for people.
If you come into any relationship and
not have a certain or high expectations,
you'll come to accept that they are
who and what they are.


Control and chaos.
You cannot control everything.
And you have to put chaos into perspective.
Managing to balance control
and chaos is a never ending battle.
Choose to have peace.
Live in perfect control over what you can
and leave chaos to run it's course
But leave it, really. 


Unconditional love.
Everyone place a set of conditions to be met before they feel at ease.
Learning to accept flaws and edges-
the character that leads you back
to someone without putting any
expectations in return is unconditional.


Humanity and Hope.
Having acceptance of flaws and imperfections.
Believe that everyone deserves love
unconditionally.
Have hope in person who are challenged.
Challenged in character.
Challenged by situations.
Challenged by circumstances.


~Hope is when you fall, you rise
up gracefully even if with the grace 
of others.~

Chaotic mess too but I found me back

I found me lost, stranded by the road. With no money on me. And nobody that I know. I sat down with my head low. I found me hungry, and nothing to cook at all. My kitchen is complete but food was non. How did I become so poor? Didn't I do a checklist before? I found me helpless, looking like a bum. I'm so shabby and dreadful. I feel sick. The pain is in my skull. I found me walking, aimless again. I need a cure for my heart. I'm yearning for my children again. I know where they are- at their father's house. I found me strength, that's how I began. My children have grown. I need to stop looking for my mini me. They don't need a babysitter. They need their mother. I found me courage, that's how I take a stand. I won't let anyone break my heart. I won't be sad. I won't let anyone mock me anymore. I won't let anyone push me over anymore. I found me meek, that's how I woman up. I need to speak up. I have to say what I need. I know w...

Self talk when you are depressed

I'm really sorry you're feeling this way, but I think it's great that you're seeking ways to lift yourself up. Here's an approach to self-talk that could help: Acknowledge Your Feelings "I know I’m feeling really low right now, and that's okay. It’s normal to have difficult days, and it’s important to honor how I feel." Challenge Negative Thoughts "I’m noticing a lot of negative thoughts swirling around. These thoughts don’t define me. They’re temporary, and I have the power to shift my focus toward something more positive." Remind Yourself of Your Strengths "I’ve been through hard times before and have come out stronger. I have the strength within me to get through this, even if I can’t feel it fully right now." Focus on Small Wins "Today, I can take one small step toward feeling better. Maybe that’s going for a short walk, drinking a glass of water, or taking a deep breath. Each small step is progress." Be Ki...

Setting boundaries

Setting healthy boundaries is essential for maintaining emotional, mental, and physical well-being.  Here are 10 types of boundaries you should consider having with others: Emotional Boundaries: Protect your emotional energy by limiting how much you share or absorb from others. Don’t allow others to guilt or manipulate you into feeling responsible for their emotions. Physical Boundaries: Define your comfort levels regarding physical touch and personal space. You have the right to say no to unwanted physical contact. Time Boundaries: Value your time by setting limits on how much you give to others, whether at work, with friends, or in relationships. It's okay to decline requests if it encroaches on your personal time. Mental Boundaries: Protect your beliefs, thoughts, and opinions. You don’t have to agree with others or be pressured into thinking the way they do. Mental boundaries also include protecting your mental health from toxic conversations or influences. Material...
