All I want to say about this girl can be found from her quote below:

I used to dislike gaining muscle but my views on that have changed over the years. Now I enjoy gaining muscle and I want to grow more because I find it very sexy. Back then, fitness was purely just to get abs but along the way I changed that mindset.

I never imagined myself buying groceries from the supermarket and cooking my own food. I wasn’t the type who would go running, cycling or hit the gym on my own. Fitness has helped me to become more independent and stronger not just physically but mentally too.

Also, I have never loved myself as much as I do today. I was always living for someone else, but now I can confidently say that I am not that girl anymore. Fitness is not just about exercising; it changes people for the better.

    Half my right butt cheek is bruised now (it's turn Half my right butt cheek is bruised now (it's turning black and purple) from denting the ladder in yday's silly home incident, but I would like to take a moment to appreciate this solid (heavy) thicc butt of mine... because it got me out of a bad fall situation unscathed.

Jokes aside, I do occasionally feel like my butt is too big, has too many stretch marks and too much cellulite, and it makes me not want to wear a bikini. I'll see other butts and be like, how come they have such a nice peach shaped ass whereas mine just looks like an overstuffed pillow.

BUT I brush these thoughts away quickly because I love this butt of mine, flaws and all. Poor ladder though!

    After setting up @rockthenakedtruthsg, I started t After setting up @rockthenakedtruthsg, I started to learn more about body image and I came to a realisation that the more attractive one is, the more likely he/she is insecure about their body.

You would think otherwise because they have a 'great body' with skinny legs, thigh gap, small waist, "11" abs, nice boobs (for girls), but they are actually not as confident as you think they are.

People would die for these bodies, people are dieting and doing stupid things to get this kind of body, but these 'more attractive' people are actually insecure about the very body society desires.

Why insecure? I spoke to some of them and they cited reasons like: Afraid to lose the body because they feel their identity is tied to their body, afraid they may not look like that one day, afraid they do not look good enough.

So my hope is that everyone will come to accept their body no matter how it looks, and not be afraid to be judged. I mean, who gives these people a right to judge you?

Your body, own it!

    Had so much fun at the @grityardsg x @jyanyogastud Had so much fun at the @grityardsg x @jyanyogastudio collab event today where we got to do a combo of HIIT then acro yoga, an opportunity to try 2 types of workouts in one session, to see how fitness can be translated across different activities!

I wanted @jyanyoga to base me just for ONE photo, but she ended up sending me into several moves, which scared me a little but with the help of @branstands, I got into a few poses so now I have a few photos to share. Yay!

To more of such collabs!!!

    Following my house revamp, it's now time for some Following my house revamp, it's now time for some deep cleaning. Since I've moved in 3.5 years ago, I've not done any deep cleaning so there is definitely work to be done heh.

The @surecleansg professional cleaning team came over to work on my home and I was so impressed with their cleaning! (You know you're upping your auntie level when you get excited seeing things get cleaned and get intrigued by these fancy cool machines.) You can swipe to see the before/after results!

For my bachelorette space of 600 sqft, they sent a team of 3 who worked on the place simultaneously. Altogether they took 4 hours for the Home Deep Cleaning and Disinfection; sofa and mattress cleaning are add-ons to the package. 

They also have their own products, like their own Germclean disinfectant that has silver ion technology and 24h residual disinfection and can last on surfaces for 30 days, which they used on my home AND you can purchase to use too.

Quote 'CHERYLTAYSG' to get 15% off with min. spend of $250 before GST. You can book on sureclean.com.sg!

    Home revamp completed! 🥰🥰🥰 I've been spen Home revamp completed! 🥰🥰🥰 I've been spending a lot more time at home this year, which gave me the push to make some improvements to the house so I can be more comfortable at home.

It's been 3.5 years since I moved in, but I've mostly just treated this as a house, somewhere to stay, and not really put the effort to make it a home home.

When I first moved in, I wasn't keen to do up the house much because I felt that I might get married one day and move out, so why bother to spend money? So I only added a counter to separate the kitchenette from the living area, and set up my bike trainer next to the sofa.

These made the house quite cluttered and it just got messier and messier over the years as I accumulated more stuff, and was often too tired or busy to clear up. I mean, it was just me and I don't invite friends over, so I let the mess manifest.

Finally, I decided to revamp the place and I'm glad I did!

I got rid of the counter, built cupboards and shelves into the walls for more storage space, got zip blinds so I could convert the balcony into a usable space, did vinyl flooring over the original glossy floor which is hard to maintain (and I was wearing bedroom slippers all the time), and got a dining table set that doubles up as my work station.

The result is amazing! I wish I could say this was a DIY project, but no, I engaged the services for the various things I did... after taking time to source for the best deals with value and quality!

The home feels like a home now and this might sound strange, but having more physical space actually has a calming effect on me and psychologically I feel better!

If you have any budget home decor ideas, please share! My only decor ideas are multiple stuffed toys and Hello Kitty memorabilia lol.

Now I'm looking forward to hosting friends at my revamped space I call home!

    One good thing about the frozen meals from Not Jus One good thing about the frozen meals from Not Just CarrotSticks is that you can take it straight from the freezer into the microwave oven. In just 5 minutes, your plant-based meal is ready!

The plastic sheet will peel off by itself once the food is heated, so all you need to do is peel it off and you're good to start eating.

I've tried all 3 meals and they taste good! The Thai basil chicken and the beef rendang are quite spicy, but I'm terrible with chilli so it should be fine for you.

You can also purchase them exclusively at Bukit Timah Plaza NTUC Finest and Parkway Parade NTUC Finest for the month of December.

Sometimes, all you need is just one accessory to make your look cooler. Cue my Super.visor from @greybyortenhill! I love how it goes well with active wear, outdoor wear, beach wear... so long as you're in the sun, it completes the look.

I'm giving away 3 visors (of your choice) to 3 people. They have the half (which I'm wearing here) and the full, and a few different colour options. My favourites are the gold (seen here) and the rainbow.

To take part, follow my IG and @greybyortenhill, and tell me in the comments below how you will wear this, eg. what outfit will you match this with, where will you go with this etc.

I will choose the winners by Sunday 2359h!

    PERIOD FATIGUE. Besides belly bloat, water retenti PERIOD FATIGUE. Besides belly bloat, water retention, moodiness and junk food cravings, the other thing I struggle with, during PMS, is the fatigue. The fatigue is real!

I find myself needing to sleep more, getting tired more easily, and even after sleeping more, I still feel tired?! What is this! Do you feel sluggish too?

Also, in the few days leading up to day 1 of the period, your athletic performance is likely to be affected so don't be hard on yourself if you don't find yourself hitting your targets or doing weaker than usual. You might want to chill a bit prior to the period, OR, manage your expectations and don't let it affect you mentally when you don't perform at the level you're used to.

Interestingly, I read that the body is the strongest in the first few days of the period! But with the heavy flow and the cramps, it's hard to feel pumped yknow.

Whatever it is, I continue to exercise through my period. You just gotta manage the intensity, effort and expectations!

P.S. Wearing the @teampurpose x @zachbitter running singlet in XS that is lightweight and comfy, and the women's high waisted 4" running shorts in M that is great for the no-thigh gap so you don't get abrasion from the bunching up of shorts between the thighs.

P.P.S. The gap on my medal holder is supposed to be for the 3 major races I signed up to complete in 2020 - Challenge Roth, Berlin Marathon and the Ironman 70.3 World Championship in Taupo, New Zealand. It will be filled eventually I believe - a part of me is like, whew the pain will come later; whilst another part of me is like, damn I wanted to get the pain over and done with. Either way, it's akan datang (Malay for coming soon)!
