Final Post

It took me a while to write this post. I had so much to write, and mind was full of thoughts and was feeling nostalgic about my last 90 days. I am entering to new phase of living with all good habits and determination to stay healthy forever and not to look back.
This is it, end of great 90 days journey which I never thought I could have finished. But yes here I am, new transformed me, filled up with great knowledge that I acquired from Patrick Reynolds & Chen Zhongtao.
I am so thankful to my hubby, without him seriously this was not possible. He was the one who made me do this. I enjoyed every bit of it coz he was with me and made this project easy. We both have seen changes and were glad we did this together.  Thanks Sweetheart for the continuous support, for pulling my spirits up every time and helping me in many workouts..remember Double Katana... Love you.
Big Thanks and hugs to both of my Parents i.e. Kos’s parents and mine, who have always supported us so much. Love you all for that. Glad that you all are my family.
My Fellow PCP –ers, thanks a ton for your continuous encouragement and awesome blogs which seriously gave it a nice light happy turn. I am glad that I came to know lovely ppl: Tracey, Conny, Ines, Kim, Richard, Noel- It was so much fun reading your blogs and thanks for your support, advice and ever encouraging comments. You all look Hot, sexy in new transformed you.
 My awesome gorgeous Team Mighty Mouse – Guys you rock – Thankfully half of you are in HK, so we can meet more often  J . I truly enjoyed watching all the awesome changes in everybody. YE YE YE.Team Mighty Mouse: Ha ha what a name, coz we forgot what Patrick named our team. It Was great meeting you Brent, Justin, Terri, Fergie and looking forward to meet Marcus and all of you again on Thursday.  Meg, Babe will miss you and hope to see you very soon in HK.
Let’s, talk about this awesome Journey. When my hubby first introduced me to this project, I never gave much attention to it frankly. But, when he was too much interested in doing this, I started reading more, everyday; read all PCP ers blog nearly…specially Corry Macdonald, Helen,Tanya, Molly, Yeeman, Keita, Greenie and Wei, and obviously by default PR’s blog!! J They seriously changed my mind and made me enthusiastic about it.After getting to know more about it, me and Kos maximum time talked about PCP – we use to exchange emails saying did u read her blog today..She/he looks great...What a transformation… And stuff like that...It was our routine…he he, and then we finally decided to enroll ourselves. I must say, what we were 90 days before in comparison of today, we are way too different.
When everybody came to know that we are doing this program, all were shocked and said to me why you have to do this, and you are already thin n stuff like that. But, I knew that how wrong I was in my eating habits and also my workouts regime were not giving me good results.
During this program, I might have become irritated coz of workouts or diet part and m sorry PR, but have cursed you also J Apology for that...Kos Is so much aware of it…But then I used to gathered my thoughts, cool down myself and then i can’t find anybody right except Patrick Reynolds!!In my life I have never checked sodium amount in my food, but now I always do and I don’t miss salt at all, seriously. The outlook towards life has been changed and it has taken a complete different turn. I can even write a love letter to Jump rope...I hated it so much when I was a big failure in that, but now I will keep jump rope always with me as my pet.
From now we will look at the menu in restaurant in completely different way(obviously not immediately but after a week or so :) ) and make sure what we put in our mouth.
I feel I have still not achieved the way I want to look…i.e. a girl with more strength and beauty. But, I will make sure I achieve that. At least am happy that I challenged myself and achieved at least something if not all.

I started with 57 - 57.5 kgs and yesterday my weight was around 54. M happy :) I could not measure anything else like B.M.I or Body Fat pecentage.
Some Post PCP Rule Guide for Me:
· Eating Habits Revolution: I will always keep a check on my every tiny winy bite of food that I am eating i.e. processed food if I am eating in restaurants. Salt content will always be less from now. · Loads of vegetables and white meat i.e. protein. They are magic part of this entire program and it has proved. I will eat more Avocado coz I never realized they are so yum, all colors of veggies which makes my food more attractive and even my body gorgeous. J. Will surely try veggie pizza with just a bit of cheese  and hell lot of veggies at home
· Workout very regularly... Oh my dear sweet Jump Rope, you look cruel, but you are awesome. 8   Mins Abs, you have already been added into my YouTube fav videos and you can’t escape anywhere. I will try to concentrate on each muscle of my body and try to maintain them before the fat layer hides it...I can’t allow my body to go back to its old stage. Will try to work out 4, 5 times a week. Hopefully ;)
· Would stick to Breakfast and Lunch as PCP compliant always, and can cheat on dinner part...With wine/martini/vodka/ pff I forgot names also...It’s so long… J
· No Frozen Yogurts: Damn I used to love this so much, that I have actually missed my dinner coz of it. After reading this I want to see how Kos reacts... J But, not now ever. My Low Fat Greek Yogurt with Fresh Fruits and a drizzle of honey will be my new Frozen Yogurt for me.
· Swimming: This thing can make my bad mood to the best. And will keep continuing to do it till my clubhouse permits me toJ, as they will be closing down very soon for winters. Damn.
· Flexibility: PCP has brought back “flexibility” in my body again. My V sit-ups are much better than what I started off with. Will make sure i don't loose this again.
· Nothing is Magic: If we have to achieve body like our role models, then we have to seriously invest hard work and dedication for that. Just by dieting or running one on treadmill won’t help us to achieve.
· Sharing Knowledge: Spreading a word about PCP to all people is so important, I will make sure that I can share my knowledge, whatever I have (J) with everyone I know and make them aware.
THE THINGS THAT I TILL DATE HATE AFTER PCP:
1. FLOOR JUMPS: Oh lord, how do you do it? I have managed to finish it but doing it correct is still unknown. Marcus dude, I am waiting for you to teach me on Thursday. It would be fun doing floor jumps in Soho… Ha Ha. People might feel we are bit crazy, but who cares.
2. LUNGES: I don’t want to talk about them… ;)
Here, comes the most awaited part of Blog : Pics!!







Patrick @ Chen Zhongtao : Special thanks to both of you from bottom of my heart,  for having patience with us and making us learn every minute details about our body. You have helped each one of us to look awesome ;).  You guys have corrected us so much in just 90 days and the results show that. Even though I might not have achieved perfect PCP target, but I am feeling way too strong and healthy and will continue to improve it. Hats off to both of you!! It was life changing experience.
My next project is to go and SHOP till I DROP.
Two happy and gorgeous people planning to have one lovely evening tomorrow, with great dinner and obviously wine and enjoying every bit of it. :D Waiting for that.
Well, are we receiving any awards PR? :D
There is a different smile on my face right now; it’s such a good feeling. Hope you all have the same.
Always keep smiling guys and wishing each one of you good luck in your life and Stay Healthy. Keep in Touch!!
We all did it!! Applaud!!
Cheers!
