Kilogrammes

Last year was quite a year. I overcame my worries and survived school and work… I also picked up cycling, an activity I still love, apart from the painful skin abrasions I suffered from cycling long distances… I’ve got to be proud of myself nonetheless! My will was limited and so I’ve prioritised it to getting good grades.

But other than that, I’ve let my diet gone amok. Plans fell apart one after another even though they were simple and achievable. Stuff like “stop eating deep fried food” got thrown out after I got a waft of those darn McDonald’s fries. Even stuff like “drink only plain water” fell flat. How to cut down on carbs, you tell me?

I was about 68kg back in late 2009, dropped to 58kg late 2010 and without weighing myself, I can safely say I am somewhere around 63-65kg now. That’s a whole blah and a disappointment. To think I was just 3kg away from my target weight of 55kg! I’ve long since given up the aim of being 50kg again because I’m just not motivated enough. With this recent shrinking due to my awful appetite after the wisdom teeth surgery, I guess it’s time to regain my center… and start moving again.

Starting next week would be my weekly dancercise lessons and I’ve since kickstarted my cycling regime on NYE. I’ve got to keep this up! Diet-wise… I’ll start doing my Yong Tau Foo (no deep fried tau pok and less sauce!) – fish porridge – more veggies, less rice plan on weekdays. Just like how I did it back in 2009 when doctor advised me to go lose some weight so that my hormones can settle down and for my triglycerides level to go back down.

Exercise and healthy living has to be the goal of 2012. 55kg I will see you soon. I hope. I did it before and I will do it again.
