Lunch @ Fish & Co

Went to The Glasshouse for lunch with the kiddos. We ordered a few items.

Let's start with the Starters.

Mussels in lemon butter sauce, served with bread.

I believe the bread is focaccia.

 This has been one of my favourites & still is.

Fried calamari.

Ironically, it's ordered by the boy who chokes on it previously.

Fried whitebait.

J has always have a soft spot for them.

Next up? Our Mains...

Mine! Fish & Chips with Chili Crab Sauce.

J's main - London Fish & Chips.

Danish Fish & Chips

By the time I took all the above photos, l decided not to carry on as Fish & Chips will always be Fish & Chips no matter how you capture the photo so I pretty much stopped here.

Happy Kids = Happy Me!!!

Amazonia @ Great World City Mall

Brought kids here today.

2 little adorable boys @ the corner.

That's Fatty & Handsome for you.

It has a 8 metre slide & total of 5 levels of fun!

I had a try on the slide. Not bad though not exciting enough for me.

This place provided kiddos of close to 2 hrs of fun. ^^

This is the place for kids younger than 3 years old.

A musical "instrument" inside.

Step on it & listen to the notes you stepped on.

In summary, not bad but price is a bit steep. It's 33 bucks per kid for 2 hrs of fun but since it's the school holidays now, it's unlimited time. Pay an extra of $5.35 to get into the space ball area where it glows & you get to shoot balls with the aid of a "gun".

Lamb Provencal

Remember the recipe books I bought recently? I tried one of the recipes for lunch today & it taste delicious! Portion isn't small either.

The lamb is about 150g. I had my lunch at around 1p.m. today & I'm not even hungry yet!

If you're interested to find out how to cook, let me know & I'll share it! ^^

Exercise

I want to lose weight & I want a lower % of fat! I've been working out by going for brisk walking of at least 4km in 45 wins on alternate days but I just can't get the fats down! I cut down from junk food, fried stuff & soft drinks & yet the % of fats increase! I've no idea why there's an increase when I've cut down on sugary food & I've started to exercise! How could this be?! I've been having salads for dinner for the past couple of weeks! What's wrong?! I don't understand.

I'm no longer a young adult. l no longer have the priviledge of eating what I want & hardly putting on any significant weight. I'm only 1.59 metres till & I weighed 63kg a week plus ago. l now weigh 61kg & I've 6kg more to lose. % of fats isn't looking good. Before l did all the changes, it was 34.1%. After a week plus of change, it shoots up to 34.7%! How come like that one?! I weighed myself again yesterday & it's 34.5%! I'm going to faint...

I wore a dress to work today & my tum tum seems to have grown up a few notches within a short span of time! I HATE this dress!

Okie! This is what I'm going to do.
1st, I'm going to take brown rice instead of white.
2nd, I'm going to take whole grain bread instead of white.
3rd, I'm going to take plain yoghurt instead of the fruity ones which are packed with sugar.
4th, I'm going to continue working out on alternate days. I'm going to do at least 30 mins of brisk walking & I'm going to climb the stairs to at least the 10th floor.
5th, I'm going to continue with salad for dinner & the dressing will be either red or white wine vinegar with some olive oil, salt & pepper.

I'm going to do this between 2 weeks to a month. Let's see where this brings me.

If % of fats is still not working, I'm going for detox!!!
