mid-years are almost over, one more paper to go!!!
think i screwed up but whatever ahahaha there's so much more to life than stupid tests....
anyway i'm currently on a weight-loss/dieting/healthy eating plan...
i wouldn't exactly call it dieting, 'cos i'm still eating as per normal, snacking when i'm hungry.
with added exercise and stuff.
i recently started this whole "weight-loss" thing because like i mentioned previously, i have put on an immense amount of weight hahaha.
so yes here's the 5 principles of losing weight the jamie way. ;)
sounds lame huh but let me tell you what i have been doing/plan to do!
wait wait i must lay out my personal reasons/motivations for losing weight riiiiight okok umm here goes.
#1 I HAVE TOO MUCH BELLY FAT SRSLY
#2 I'M BARELY FITTING INTO ALL MY CLOTHES NOW SCREW THIS. THIS IS THE KEY REASON WHY I'M DOING ALL THIS NOW HONESTLY
#3 WILL RUN IS COMING AND I DON'T WANT TO EMBARRASS MYSELF BY BEING THE FIRST PERSON IN SR HISTORY TO NOT FINISH THE DAMN 10KM
#4 TRAIN MYSELF UP FOR SRGCE NEPAL
1. No more bubble tea of any sort
yes. no more bubble tea anymore.
i realised how much i've been patronising both gongcha/drink tea and how i always order the "milk green tea" with added creamy milk on top.
though it tastes awesome, i honestly never considered how much fat goes into one cup of that.
anyway i won't be tempted to buy gongcha/drink tea anymore.
if i'm thirsty, drink water!!!! (or fruit juice as a good alternative)
NO MORE GONGCHA MILK GREEN TEA.
2. No more white bread for breakfast
what the heck.
this is going to slightly difficult for me to give up - 'cos i love bread soooooo much.
but the amount of carbohydrates in it, is crazy.....
i've recently switched to eating wholemeal/wholegrain bread, and i just bought some breakfast cereal (grains and nuts).
my breakfast everyday from now on is going to be this grain cereal with milk.
and! i have also substituted my favourite meiji white milk to meiji's 0% fat skimmed milk!
thank goodness it tastes the same... :)
so now whenever i'm thirsty, i will only drink this 0% fat milk.
don't know how true their food labels are, but yes, i shall just believe them as they are.
i need to learn to love wholegrain food.
3. Hungry? Fruits only
i notice i get hungry really easily in the wee hours of the night (or is it morning).
being the nocturnal creature i am, i'm usually awake till about 3am in the morning.
yeah i know this is bad for my health, and that i ought to get more sleep 'cause apparently sleeping sufficiently allows you to burn calories hmm, but i can't help it.
i love the quiet and stillness of the night and it's something i don't get to enjoy in the morning.
ok anyway, if i ever get hungry in ungodly hours of the night, i shall eat nothing but fruit.
grapes are my favourite fruit so yes i will eat more of these...
they help to prevent cancer and heart disease!!
and so do oranges help me have a better complexion ;-)
GO AWAY PIMPLES.
4. Learn to love chocolate
ho ho ho!
something i won't find TOO difficult despite the fact that i don't eat chocolate.
not a big fan of it, but i will still eat dark chocolate!
apparently a little bit of chocolate can do me good:
All the raw data suggested that the chocolate eaters should have the heftier BMI. They showed higher calorie intake, ate more saturated fats, and they didn't exercise any more than their non-chocolate counterparts. And yet, no matter how the researchers sliced or adjusted the data to account for potentially confounding variables like age, gender, physical activity, or anything else, chocolate consumption was always linked to a lower BMI. The people who ate chocolate were thinner than those who didn't.
GOOD INCENTIVE AYE?
time to eat some chocolate, but don't worry, i can never be hooked onto it since i don't LOVE it.
yeah baby time to eat the royce chocolate in the fridge!
actually i already do ahahaha
5. Run regularly
no this cannot be me.
being a lazy indoor couch potato i am for the past 16 years of my life, it's time for a change.
i'm not completely going to evolve into some buff muscular super outdoor fun-in-the-sun athletic enthuasiast overnight...
just want to make it a point to run at least 3 times a week this june holidays.
during school terms there's gonna be crazy PE lessons = training for will run T_T
so yeahhh i will RUN this holiday.
so yeahhh i will RUN this holiday.
yes i will.
anyway i've started off by running 4.3km on friday and today too!
took 33 mins on friday and improved by a minute or so today.
great achievement jam-ta-to. :) (potato)
KEEP AT IT!
SO HERE'S TO MY WEIGHT-LOSS & KEEP FIT PLAN YES SO FAR I'M STICKING TO IT!
(did i mention i found $10 and used it to buy some slimming pillow ahahaha hilarious i am becoming so gullible and superficial hmmm)
