Rebouncing

This is the busiest period of my freelance working life. Projects and projects are starting, launching and in discussion.

I have stopped exercise regularly and start eating crap food. Need to get myself back on track! I am looking at my fat thighs now.. and HATING them.

Tonight I shall spend some time to do PHA workout.

Tomorrow, to stock up on healthier snacks!

Down with fat tummy and thighs

Weight : 126 pounds.
Mood : Very good
Bads : Low exercise level
Goods : In Love

This is a post in a very long time. I have gone down to 57kg. Still have very thick fold of fats along my tummy. Need to work on that area.

I have been advised to do bicycles and leg lifts to burn of the fats in that area. I am also taking fish oil (Omega 3) and L-Carnitine supplements to help. Fish oil is good for general health too! :)

A tiny update

Greetings to all,

I do apologizes for not being able to update the blog as often as possible. I am buried by work.

Trying to run 5 projects concurrently is a horrible experience. The projects came in staggered but end up getting to the development status together. Just my luck... I need to concentrate more on the programming and less on the dieting.

Guess what? People who haven't seen me for a long time are saying that I have changed a lot. Became prettier... Guess that means that I was ugly in the past. Hahhah

They are asking if I had found myself a boyfriend, and one person even asked when am I going to get married. heheh This is hilarious. Perhaps most people will think that people slim down to get attached, to find a boyfriend and likes. But to me, it is just something that I want to do.

Regarding my weight loss status, I am stagnant for past 3 months. Damn! I think I reached plateau again. Next item to buy to boost my weight loss is L-Caritine. I will it will help. Now the next step is to figure out which L-Caritine salt to buy to boost my weight loss. The price range of this supplement varies greatly across different brand and salt. From 40 to 100 ++ bucks.

That's all for now. I got so much to tell but today's time for posting is up. Ciao!

Where have I disappeared to?

Well I ended my last blog saying that I would report back. But never did.

haiz... work calls.. so I have to double up to build this CMS for my client.

Working thru the night is taking it toll on me. I put on 1 kg from bad eating habits... I have the tendency to munch on sweet stuff when I am under stress. Like fruits and digestive biscuits. Oh my! 1 piece of digestive biscuit is 70 calories and not that overly filling. I have the tendency to eat another and another!

That 1 kg from lack of sleep!

1. It happens that sugar is a perks me up and I have the craving for sugars at night. Chocolate, lemon puff, digestive biscuits, sweet fruits!

2. People who habitually slept for 5 hours were found to have 15% more ghrelin than those who slept for 8 hours. They were also found to have 15% less leptin. These hormonal changes may cause increased feelings of hunger, leading to a foraging in the fridge for food.

That explains why I am putting on weight again!!

More information when I finish up my CMS. In the meanwhile I am drinking more tea to keep myself away.

I need more exercises too.. Come on my exercising buddies! Let's schedule one whole week of exercises to occupy my time fully!

Semi fasting day

After days of going back to my maintenance calories days, I am going back to low calories again.
Trying for 1000 cal today. More information coming up at the end of the day.

Weight : 134 pounds.
Mood : Good
Bads : Ben and Jerry's Ice cream (Finished up the rest). I discovered that I have kiwi allergies. Pain in my tummy after one kiwi fruit. Not doing PHA today because of the pain.
Goods : Did my cardio exercise before my mishap with kiwi fruit.
Exercise : Brisk walking for half an hour.

Lesson learn today: no matter how good some fruits or vegetables are for you, if you are allergic to them, you will suffer.

I should start taking note of my allergies and avoid them for good!

Weight : 134 pounds.
Mood : Good
Bads : Ben and Jerry's Ice cream
Goods : Did my exercises
Exercise : Skipping half an hour, PHA.

Going to brush up my PHA exercise techniques and move on to the next level.

Weight : 134 pounds.
Mood : Ok, Tired. Went grocery shopping today. Ben and Jerry's ice cream, pistachio flavor and Edam cheese went into my basket. But I have not eaten any ice cream just 40 gram of cheese .
Bads : No Exercise. Stomaches. Fell asleep after dinner. Woke up to find my tummy still aches. Unknow causes
Goods : I kept within my calories intake
Exercise : None.

Bad news my body is coping well with eating 1200 calories per day. Better step up on fuel intake and expenditure.

Today's weight : 134 pounds.

Today's a public holiday over here. I am stuck at home working on a project. It is a good thing that I managed to finish it at around 9pm.

I woke up in the morning feeling heavy headed. Feels like a cold's coming onto me. Sitting at the desk the whole day does not make things any better. This project has been started since Nov last year. Dragging a little too long. I can feel my pressure rising just by looking at the wireframes. Emotional eating whenever I am tackling this project. My original plan was to go to running until I dropped because I badly needed exercise.

I completed 30 minutes of skipping and a PHA workout.

Today I restarted my weight loss count down. My target is to go down to 56 kg by July. That will be 5 more kilograms. Starting from today, I will try my best to make time for exercises. 2 hours a day. Run, skipping and do resistance exercise to attain my goal. I will also be filling in the blog everyday in addition to tracking my food intake on Calorie-Count.com. They have a journal feature but I preferred to have the entries on blogger.com

Mood is good but I am forever worrying about income. The downside of working life (employed and self-employed alike). Mood goes up after finishing my wireframe changes.

Bad food today includes pie crust, banana chips and supper of yoghurt, milk and oatmeal and banana chips. Should have eaten earlier after my workout rather than 2 hours later.

My Right Thigh is Fatter than my Left Thigh

Today's weight : 134 pounds.

On plateau, bad appetite, bad workouts and a lot of work to do. That explains why I have not been blogging so often.

I notice that my right side is fatter than my left side. Isn't fat being burn up equally on both sides? Or my workout is not balanced, causing one side of my body to be fatter than the one side.

I definitely need to

1. Keep to my workout schedule and work harder
2. Eat more protein and carbohydrate to break the plateau, will write out a new grocery list this weekend.
3. Sleep well!
   

in order to shrink my fat cells and expand my muscles.

Note to people who thinks that muscles turn into fat cells when you no longer do weight training:
Fat cells are fat cells. They either shrink or expand to accommodate the lipids in your body.
Muscles cells are muscles cells. They either shrink or expand due to usage.
And of course the number of fat cells no not decrease when you lose fat. They only shrink unless the cells are burst using radio waves aka plastic surgery like liposelection (think that's the name). So no more saying "my muscles are turning to fats". That is so not correct!
