Family trip to Bukit Malawati & Sekinchan

Family trip to Bukit Malawati and Sekinchan was so blissful. 

Bukit Malawati was a historical place, I bet many of you forgotten about it. *Go get back your history book and read about it or use google*

Nothing much of the trip. Just want to relax and not so stress with our routine tasks. 

As we reached, we bought tour ride to get up the hill. According to my dad, last time they use to drive their own up the hill. Now, we need to pay for it.

My bro, me and my sis on the ride. Waiting patiently for the ride to start the journey.

When we reached, there were a lot of monkeys waiting for everyone. Those monkeys were so wild but cute at the same time. Why I said so? They go for everyone who hold something on their hands. They will robbed like none of your business. LOLs. Don't play play with them.

They we off to Sekinchan, a peaceful fish and paddy village located at Selangor.

Mom and dad.

Sun set.

Me. Don't get cheated with my shirt. I'm NOT in Bali. FML.

We had all these for lunch. You name it. Mostly were seafood as Sekinchan famous with cheap and nice seafood.

While on the way back to home, we dropped by an Orchird's Farm near Batu Arang.

So many types of orchids. Applause to the owner.

Mum bought these two types of orchid. Nice?

I also saw Nepenthes sp. there too. It remind me on my field trip at Sabah. I miss my uni-mates at Sabah. 

Although family trips were short yet, everyone getting together once in a while was such a joy-able moment.

The 4Rs for Emotional Eating Habits

Everyone loves to eat. We cannot survive without foods! Regardless on what you like to eat either it's healthy or not, one main point is to exercise regularly. Exercise helps to burn calories in our body. 

I, myself seldom off to gym or exercise regularly. But I loves to eat whatever I like. I feel lucky that my body weight does not rise up to abnormal levels. The keys for me to keep myself healthy are eat moderately and walking as my exercise. I always walk from A to B, then B to C buildings in my university. Walking around the shopping mall is good choice also since girls love shopping. *Shopping is the main point*. LOLs. It's hard to maintain healthy lifestyle when you're having busy and hectic life.

Back to the topic, what are the 4 Rs to kick out the emotional eating:

First, Remove:

Identify what types of food you instinctively reach out for when you are bored, tired, stresses or depressed. These are called "trigger foods". Be it crackers, cookies, ice cream or potato chips, it's vital that you remove these unhealthy items from your kitchen completely. That means, no hiding them behind the canned goods in the back of your cupboard either. 

                                   

Say Bye bye to them. =(

Second, Replace:

It's time to bring on the healthy alternatives instead. If you are craving savoury treats, try popcorn sprinkled with a bit of sea salt. Love ice cream? Tuck into yogurt topped with a drizzle of honey and cold fresh berries. Have a sweet tooth? Savour dark chocolate that's full of antioxidant and essential minerals.

Yogurt is yummy.

Third, Rehydrate:

Feel the junk food beckoning? Reach for a glass of water first. Sometimes the feeling of hunger can be confused with thirst. Once you've downed a glass, wait for 15 minutes to see if the craving subside; usually it completely disappears!

Water is the main source in our body. Drink more water to maintain our skin and body healthy.

Step 4, Rejuvenate:

Get distracted! Soak in a bubble bath, bust your behind doing your favourite exercise routine,play some relaxing tunes or simply read a book. All these will help you take your mind off food!

Good health, good life
