Xuan Xuans first post

Here is Xuan Xuan's first post:

First day of the new year, the fitness regime begins. I am never a big fan for sports, my record for 50m sprint is over 10 seconds, I know, quite pathetic. Nevertheless, with the help of my lovely husband, we come up with a moderate exercise plan specially designed for someone with zero endurance. The plan is 20min sessions on the spinning bike (a nice easy start, especially for someone who has a pathological hatred for running M) and some basic weights (a few basic exercises, low weight high rep to build up the fundamental strength M) I know it is not much, but for me it is a great start without the risk of putting me off exercise.

However, in the kitchen department (the other leg of our plan), I am a true master (whilst I am a total chump! M). I love food and cook everyday even if I finish really late at work. For me, kitchen is heaven and cooking is the best past time. So the only challenge is to cook healthy food. I have received a steamer from Father Christmas this year, and I have decided to put it into use. So for the next three months, the steamer will be very busy with providing us with lovely steamed seafood and vegetables (more exciting updates on food from XX to follow M).

Have a look at our first meal of the new year:

Steamed trout with ginger and spring onion

(The recipe for the trout is available here)

Grilled mushroom with garlic

Home-made salad tomato and avocado with Thai dressing

Looking forward to more updates!!
