So this blog's been pretty dead. But in order to revive it, gonna turn it into a weight loss diary (of sorts).

Since putting on like 7 kg during my 5 week Eurotrip (what with cheap booze and food experiences), it's time to lose all that fat and trim down to my (very former) svelte figure. The shame of not being able to fit into my favourite denim skirt and jeans is a wakeup call. So for the basic info:

Height: 160 cm
Current weight: 58 kg
Current waist: 72 cm
Current hips: 96 cm
Current thighs: 60 cm

Target weight: 48 kg
Target waist: 61 - 66 cm
Target hips: 86 - 91 cm

It's 10 kg, not much compared to what others want to lose. That's the first stage. Once I'm down to target weight, second stage is to maintain it. So the first stage plan:

1) Keep a food diary, recording meals everyday
2) Weigh in once a week, aiming to lose 1 kg every week
3) Exercise everyday with muay thai and yoga or jogging at least half hour. If workout is longer than 2.5 hours, may rest the next day (and only the next day!)

Food guidelines:
1) Cut out sugar, salt and simple carbs. Includes pasta, white bread, junk food and sweets.
2) Increase fruit and vege intake. 1 portion with every meal.
3) Cut down on carb portions. Eat more protein to feel fuller
4) Watch portion sizes
5) Stop eating after 7pm
6) Try to have 5 small meals

So, food diary of Day 1:
Breakfast: Bowl of Mama's steamed egg with fishball slices
Lunch: Plate of fried rice and half glass of soya milk with cendol and gula melaka. Mug of iced latte.
Dinner: Moussaka and half portion of pasta

Exercise: Walking dog for half hour. none! argh!
