A few weeks ago I shared my desire to lose weight and stay fit, having a good body shape, and took a step in that regard by subscribing for a membership at a gym in my neighborhood to bring those aspirations to reality. I did share a video on my beginning phrase and how difficult it's for me to just begin this exercise, but now I'm pleased to tell you that there have been some positive changes, and I'll show and tell you all about it in this article.

 

 

When I began my weigh lose journey weeks ago, I can remember how I break down after indulging in just few minutes of exercise, it's funny because when I see some of the workouts routine I'm placed on, I just smile within me that it's gonna be easy because it did look easy, but after getting into the routine within 5 to 10 minutes, I'm already panting heavily and looking like I'll faint in the newt minute.

 

 

But that's no more the case, in fact most times now, when I resumed to the gym and Indulge in different forms of exercise, I still find myself filled with strength and ready to go again or just go home without the fear of breaking down on the way like I experienced in my first week, so with that being said, let take a delve into some of the recent workout routine I indulge in on my weigh loss journey.


 

So recently a lady alos joined the gym and wanted almost same thing I wanted which is to lose weigh including belly fat, and the gym instructor decided to take us through some routine together, although some differs based on the gym and difference in the preferences of our desired shapes, but these are ones that are similar.

 

We went from pecking or so, I really don't know the names of gym exercise routine, but the instructor called it something like that, and according to him, these helps build ones resilience, and as well burn some fat, having someone train alongside me was a motivation for me, as now I don't want to be on the losing side, because I sees it as an healthy competition, that pushes both of us to our limits and eventually achieving the desires body shape.

 


 

 

Also being that she's a lady, I tried as much to do more than the numbers of activities she does, so people like my friend Nkem won't laugh me after seeing this video, I know she still will regardless of if I do more than the lady in question or not, and it's not like I'm belittling the capacity of a lady, just just using it as a motivation for me to push myself to achieving more and doing beyond what's my limit.

 

 

Overall I'm pleased with the progress, although I want more, and I'm been advised to also indulge in dieting to hasten the progress, which is something that's somewhat difficult, but I'm giving it a shot and hope with time I'll get there, as it's my desire, I guess I've no choice but to give it all it takes, sacrificing whatever needs to be sacrificed.

If there's something I don't like about myself lately, it's definitely my body status and how big I'm getting by the day. It even becomes more annoying when some friends tell me I'm fat or getting fatter. This gets to me, and I decided to initiate a change in that regard, and so I hit the gym. Prior to this time, I'm not the type of person who goes to the gym and indulges in any form of exercise except walking, but in my bid to lose weight, the narrative has changed, and here is a highlight of my first day at the gym.


 

Before I delve into my ordeal at the gym, it's worth noting that I first saw a scale with my brother Rahmon, and I decided to check my body weight. On stepping on the scale, I realized I'm about 106 kilograms. That's surprising because I thought it'd be way more than that, and I said this because four years ago I used to weigh 105 kg, and then I'm not as big as I'm now, so I'm unsure if it's only one kg I added and yet had so much fat. Well, my mission now is to lose body fat, stay fit, and maintain a decent body stature.

 

 

So at the gym I had to subscribe for a month, and that's cost 15,000 naira for a month, and with how tiring I fear the process might be, I decided to pay for a whole month that does a daily payment, which might make me not committed to the process. I let the gym instructor know my purpose for coming and how I'm not used to exercising and needing guidance to achieve my goals; he told me he'd be my coach, and so the journey to weight loss began that very day.

 

I started on the treadmill, where I was first asked to walk at a steady pace on the machine. As time goes on, the coach gradually increases the speed until I started literally juggling on the treadmill. Being someone who walks a lot, I thought it's going to be an easy task, but minutes into the process, I felt the heat and difficulty in maintaining the same pace or increasing for 20 minutes. By the time the coach called that phrase off, I was literally exhausted and panting heavily.

 

From the treadmill, he led me to this small, standing device, of which I don't know the name, and then he asked me to climb it and then jump down, jump on the same spot ten times, and repeat the same process over and over again. At first, I thought it's a fun activity that I'll easily do hungover without any difficulty, but just after 5 of such, I was already tired and felt loads of pain on my back, groin, and lap; it was so much that I had to stop for a while.


I guess the coach understood my plight and allowed me to rest for a minute and then continue once again. It wasn't an easy task, I must tell you, and at a time I was like, It's like I've used my own money to buy punishment for myself, but then I kept on going because of the main purpose that pushed me to the gym at first.

He also made me wear a glove and punch a punching bag. I've never all my life been involved in a fight that leads to throwing punches, so I was so awkward in that, and after watching the video of me punching the bag, I couldn't help but laugh at myself, but then he said it's also necessary in my quest to stay fit and lose weight, and the punch will help regulate the fat in my arms.


 

I also indulge in high knees exercise that we used a stick and have to move my legs up continuously; this is another exercise I thought would be easy, but I guess virtually everything is difficult or it's a so because I've never been exercising prior to that, so being my first time I felt it so much, I also did some other exercises which I don't know their names, and after about two hours at the gym, the coach called off the task for the day, and I decided to rest for a minute.

 

While resting, I began to lose weight continuously, and it seems as though I'm going to faint. I had to just lay down on the floor and rest for a minute before I regained some strength and went home. Overall, it's not easy at all, but I'm committed to the task at hand and hope to lose weight continuously till I'm fit and in shape.

Hello Vibes community, Once again, this is Vickoly, and today in my entry for the Vibes Web 3 Music Competition Week 8, I'll be presenting one of the most popular songs of world-famous Dolly Parton, titled Coat of Many Colors. This is a song she composed in 1969, and during one of her interviews, I recall hearing her describe the song as a typical story of her life and experiences while growing up.

 

The song is one of love, humility, perspective, and how we shouldn't let our present state determine our actions or how we see life. Who would have thought that a young girl from such a poor background would rise up to stardom and become what she's today? I'm inspired by her life. Well, that's about it. I'd love to appreciate lordbutterfly for such a mind-blowing initial that fosters the growth of music and talent discovery in the Web 3 space.

**Here is a lyric of the song,Coat of Many Colours.**

*Back through the years I go wanderin' once again

Back to the seasons of my youth

I recall a box of rags that someone gave us

And how my momma put the rags to use*

*There were rags of many colors

But every piece was small

And I didn't have a coat

And it was way down in the fall*

*Momma sewed the rags together

Sewin' every piece with love

She made my coat of many colors

That I was so proud of*

*As she sewed, she told a story

From The Bible, she had read

About a coat of many colors

Joseph wore and then she said*

*"Perhaps this coat will bring you

Good luck and happiness"

And I just couldn't wait to wear it

And momma blessed it with a kiss*

*My coat of many colors

That my momma made for me

Made only from rags

But I wore it so proudly*

*Although we had no money

Oh, I was rich as I could be

In my coat of many colors

My momma made for me*

*So with patches on my britches

And holes in both my shoes

In my coat of many colors

I hurried off to school*

*Just to find the others laughing

And making fun of me

And my coat of many colors

My momma made for me*

*And oh I couldn't understand it

For I felt I was rich

And I told them of the love

My momma sewed in every stitch*

Hello, Vibes Common, It's about the seventh edition of the Vibes Web 3 Music Competition, and we're in week 7. Once again, I'm Vickoly, and this week I'll be presenting a song by Asa, a Nigerian musician based in France. I'll be doing a cover of her song So Beautiful (Mama Mi'), an amazing song dedicated to mothers around the globe for their relentless efforts towards dedicating their all to raising their children and future generations. I'll be doing the same with my song, and I hope you enjoy it as you listen.

 

As we all know, the role of women and mothers can't be downplayed in society; without them, there's no future for humanity, and without their sacrifices of their bodies and time, all the world would have had you and me in it to chase our dreams and achieve great things in it, and so with that mindset,I decided to dedicate this song to my mother, every single mother on the hive blockchain, and the world at large.

 

Although most of the song was sung in one of the native dialects in Nigeria, known simply as Yoruba, I hope you resonate with it and join me in appreciating our mother's, because they're awesome. I'll also love to give a shout-out and kudos to Lord Butterfly for his amazing job being done week in and week out in the Vibe community. Thanks for all you do, and have a great one.


 

Here is a lyric of the song, SO BEAUTIFUL (MAMA Mi);

 

***"So Beautiful"***

*Beautiful is your name

Wonderful is what you are to me

It's you I see in my dreams

Everyday and I pray for you

Queen of my life

You're so beautiful mama.

You're beautiful*

*Emi n wa mama kan

Ta lori yeye yen

Mama mi o roju ri

And that's why I'm lovng you*

*Nitori omo o jiya

Ni le oko

Mama mi ko roju ri

And that's why am loving you*

*La la la la

la la la o o

You are beautiful

You are beautiful*

*Ebami kira fun mama mi

Orisha bi iya o

Ko si laiye*

*Woman there is

No one like you

Nitori omo o jiya

Ni le oko

Mama mi ko ro oju ri

And that is why am loving you*

*La la la la

la la la o o

You are beautiful

You are beautiful*

*Ebami kira fun mama mi

Orisha bi iya o

Ko si laiye*

Hello Vibes community, I'm Vickoly, and today I'll be singing a cover of the song 'The One Who Never Comes" by Asa. This is a song that commemorates my state at one point in time, and thereby I became fond of it because it resonates with my life then. And today, while thinking of what to present for the **Vibes Web 3 music competition week 6**, I decided to sing it, and hopefully you'll find it worthwhile.

 

 

I'd like to say a shout-out to @lordbutterfly for setting up such a mind-blowing music initiative that has taken over not just the hive by storm but also the Web 3. I'm thrilled by what's going on here, and as a lover of music, I decided to join the host of great vocalists on the hive Blockchain to present this song by Asa, a Nigerian musician based in France.


Below are some of the **LYRICS** to the song The One Who Never Comes by Asa":

 

*Why you wanna tell me all your secrets

Don't you know I'm a girl who never falls

Why you wanna pour your heart out to me

When you know I hit the road

Every single time it calls*

*[Chorus:]

Please don't tell me you're falling

Cause I wouldn't know what to do with myself

Please don't tell me you love me

Cause I've been waiting, waiting waiting

For the one who never comes.*

*I have looked for love in all direction but

You've been here all along so how could it be you

In my dreams this was so very different

But I'm caught off guard and I don't know what to do*

*[Chorus:]

Please don't tell me you're falling

Cause I wouldn't know what to do with myself

Please don't tell me you love me

Cause I've been waiting, waiting waiting

For the one who never comes.*

*[Bridge:]

You are the sunshine through my day

You are the laughter when we say

All the things we shouldn't say

When the others left you stayed

Now that the cards have all been played

Baby, let's not walk away*

Good day, friends on the hive blockchain. It's a wonderful day, and today I'll love to show you how I coupled this solar fan I just purchased together. Like I said a few days ago, the heat in this part of the world is becoming unbearable, and this made me seek a way out by purchasing this rechargeable fan, which can keep the temperature of the room more conducive whenever there's no electricity.

 

 

And like I said a few days ago in one of my posts about having to ditch the first one I ordered because the price went down a few days after I played the order, the second one I ordered recently arrived, and here is how I coupled the fan various parts together, which I want to show you as my creative aspect for the creative Sunday in the hive learners community.

 

I'm not much of a specialist in fixing this, so I don't know the names of most of the parts of the fan and didn't make use of any equipment as it was really easy to put together despite being all scattered inside the box, so below are the few steps I followed in making this stand firm.

* First, I unboxed the fan box and brought out all the body parts, after which I started sorting each one into its own category.

 

 




* After this, I began the joining by first picking up the stand and the ground tray, and it's a plastic screw. I fix both together until it's standing firm.


 

* And move that I moved, fixing the blowing wheel and the engine part, and assembling each part together according to the drawing on the carton.



* Once that was set, I also fixed the net that was supposed to be at the back and front to cover the blowing wheel, and that's how I came to the end of fixing the fan; like I said, it's very easy to couple.



And I'm glad it was because I was worried about what if I couldn't fix it before, but after calling the customer care of Jumia, who assured me that it'd be easy to fix, I see it was really so.

 

 

And I've tried to charge it with both electricity and sunlight, and I can categorically tell you that although it wasn't fully charged when I stopped charging for the first time to try it through the night, I was pleased to see it lasted for as long as 8 hours before it shut down, and with this, I can't help but pray it lasts longer if I later get to fully charge it.

 

 

That's about it for today. I hope you enjoyed the read. Do have a wonderful day and stay blessed.

Vibes Web3 music competition week 3

 

Hello everyone, It's my first time participating in the Vibe community web3 music competition, and today in my entrance for week 3, I'll be presenting a gospel worship song titled CASTING CROWNS by Nathaniel Bassey. This is a song I so much love to vibe to whenever I want to adore the name of the Lord for His love and kindness towards me in all of my endeavors, and as I sing, I hope you'll enjoy and vibe along with me in worship to the fullest.

 

 

I'll love to give a shout-out to @lordbutterfly , who's the brain behind this amazing music project that has gone on to take music to the next level in the web3 space, and not just that, but also an avenue to promote the hive blockchain to the general public, especially those lovers of good music, and this, in my opinion, can go on to get top musicians to come onboard the hive blockchain, just as they've recently gone in cross-promotion collaboration with the legendary heartfelt music community.

https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/vickoly/23u5vVJf3TAhyc4UeThDwh9wsXTLAWncicJYH3TLeSnzzyPWc48ayuSnUfVX1JER2YZzg.webp

 

So back to the song, I've been a big fan of the song Casting Crowns by Nathaniel Basset since he released it in 2014, and there's hardly a time I want to vibe to a gospel song and worship God without playing it. It has been a solid member of my playlist through the years, and I hope you'll enjoy my presentation.

Vibes Web3 concurso de música semana 3

 

Hola a todos, Es la primera vez que participo en el concurso de música web3 de la comunidad Vibes, y hoy en mi entrada para la semana 3, presentaré una canción de adoración gospel titulada CASTING CROWNS de Nathaniel Bassey. Esta es una canción que me encanta para vibrar cada vez que quiero adorar el nombre del Señor por su amor y bondad hacia mí en todos mis esfuerzos, y como yo canto, espero que disfruten y vibrar junto conmigo en la adoración al máximo.

 

 

Me encantaría dar un saludo a @lordbutterfly , que es el cerebro detrás de este increíble proyecto musical que ha ido a tomar la música al siguiente nivel en el espacio web3, y no sólo eso, sino también una vía para promover la blockchain colmena para el público en general, especialmente los amantes de la buena música, y esto, en mi opinión, puede ir a conseguir los mejores músicos para venir a bordo de la blockchain colmena, al igual que han ido recientemente en la promoción cruzada de colaboración con la legendaria comunidad de música sincera.

 

https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/vickoly/23u5vVJf3TAhyc4UeThDwh9wsXTLAWncicJYH3TLeSnzzyPWc48ayuSnUfVX1JER2YZzg.webp

Así que volviendo a la canción, he sido un gran fan de la canción Casting Crowns de Nathaniel Basset desde que la lanzó en 2014, y casi no hay un momento en que quiera vibrar con una canción gospel y adorar a Dios sin tocarla. Ha sido un miembro sólido de mi lista de reproducción a través de los años, y espero que disfruten de mi presentación.

Hello game lover, today I bring my gameplay of the grant theft auto San Andreas to your screen once again and today, I'll be showing you I how completed the stowaway mission, which is one of the mission of Torino the government agent, who usually sent Carl on an errand with the promise of helping him release his brother Sweet one day from the prison, well mission began at the old airport and here is how it all plays out.


On arriving at the old airport, Carl saw a plane landing alongside some vehicles which seems like a military men, on hiding, Torino came into the pictures and asked carl to get into the plan and destroy it, because those government agent are trying to ship some weapon to someone, who's more like a shedding business.



To cut the long story short, I grab a bike and chase after the plane that's already on the run about to take off and throwing off trash to make me slip, luckily I was able to avoid them and drove the bike into the plane before it took off, on getting in, I wave faced by some military men inside the plane and we all fight it out, till I killed everyone single one of them.



On the killing the last of them, I took his parachute from him, them I set some explosive into the plane before running out and jumping off mind air, I let out the parachute and that was how the mission came to an end, in my opinion it's a very easy mission unlike the rest. But it's not easy to get onboard the plane while chasing with bike, in fact I repeated that part 5 times before finally getting onboard the plane.

That's about all on my gameplay experience of the stowaway mission of the grant theft auto San Andreas video game and this is my mobile gameplay experience.

Greetings, fellow gamers on the Hive Blockchain! Today I present to you another of my gameplay experiences via video coverage that shows how I played through to complete the meat business mission on the Grant Theft Auto San Andreas video game. Like I said before, this is one of my favorite games, and I enjoyed it so much because I got to catch a glimpse of the action-packed missions.


This time around, the meat business mission was prompted by Ken Rosenberg. Carl, the main character of the game, paid a visit to Rosenberg Casino and met him and his guys, rejoicing over the last successful mission. When Carl stepped in, Roseburg wanted to do something before he could finally be free, so he and Carl stepped out.


I got a call and drove to Rosenberg to meet Johnny Sindacco at his abbatior. It was supposed to be a simple discussion between Ken Rosenblum and Jonny Sindacco, but upon setting eyes on Carl, Jonny remembered their previous encounter together, and this gave him a heart attack that led to his death.



This angered the Sindacco family, who wanted to retaliate and set up different ambushes within the abbatior to make sure they killed Carl and Ken Rosenberg, but then I was up to the task. There were three fireballs to keep us from going out, and they sent some of their men to charge towards us, but I killed each one of them.


Rosenberg grabbed a fire extinguisher and put down the fire while I kept shooting to kill all of the Sindacco family men charging towards us and shooting. Mostly, my mission was to kill every one of them and protect Ken Rosenberg from getting killed by them.



 

After putting out the fire and allowing us to step into the next room, I proceeded to kill any enemies in sight while Ken Rosenberg suggested that he'd hide in the freezer. In this part, my job is to kill any enemies and make sure none of them go near the freezer, because if they successfully enter, they'll shut the door, and that means Ken Rosenberg is in danger, and his life will keep reducing until I'm able to open the freezer door and kill whoever is there with Ken Rosenberg.

 


 

Well, luckily, we didn't have to see all of those actions, as I was swift enough to kill every Sindacco family man that tried to walk towards the freezer after killing everyone. In sight, Ken Rosenberg steps out of the freezer, and we were able to proceed into the next room, killing all visible enemies. I also had to make do with my mini map to monitor the location of the enemies.


While I felt the mission should have been much easier had Ken Rosenberg also held a gun, I had no choice but to face all the enemies all by myself as I controlled the main character, Carl Johnson. Luckily, I was able to kill everyone one of them and then lead Ken Rosenberg out of the abbatior. We got inside a car and drove away back to the casino before the police showed up and traced any of the incidents that happened there to us.


I drove safely to the casino, dropped off Ken Rosenberg, and advised him to be more calm going forward, because he was obviously tense from the beginning of the mission till we arrived at the abbatior; thereafter, he walked away. That brings us to the end of the meat business mission, and I brace myself for other missions that lie ahead.


 

That's about it for now. I hope you enjoyed the read. Do have a wonderful day and stay blessed.

Hello Hive.

 

Today I'll love to share a video of my game-play experience with the Grant Theft Auto San Andreas video game. I actually tried to upload the video a few days ago, but it was acting up, so I decided to give it a try once again, and now I'm glad it finally went through. This particular mission is called Up Up Away, and it was initiated by an in-game character called Woozie.



Here I stole a chopper that can be used to carry heavy equipment from a military base, although it wasn't an easy mission because the soldiers had an AK-47, which is a powerful weapon that draws life very fast, but I was lucky enough to overcome them and in the end complete the missing. The video above gives you an idea of how it went, and I hope you enjoyed it.



This game is one of my favorite video games of all time, and I've played it on different platforms, from television to PC to mobile. I'm always looking forward to playing it and getting involved with the loaded missions it's occupied with, as they're nothing short of interesting.

The Grant Theft Auto San Andreas video game on its own is very addictive, especially for someone who's a lover of shooter games with loads of missions and adventure. This video was screen recorded while I was playing on my smartphone, and it kind of reminds me of those when I play mobile action games of their nature on my Java phones.



Such games I can remember are Splinter Cell, Mission Impossible, Die Hard, Brothers in Arms, God of War, Prince of Paradise, and many more, to mention but a few. These games are some of the best that made up my childhood story, and when I learned about Grant theft auto, I was thrilled by how ambiguous and action-packed it was.

Thanks so much for your time, I hope you love the video gameplay experience, Do have a wonderful day and stay blessed.
