And so my diet and exercises started..
Don't talk about lunch..
There wasn't much choice when I ordered 菜饭..
The auntie so stingy give so little portions..
But she was damn generous with the rice.. Even ask me if it's enough..
Been taking the stairs after my breaks.. Hope it helps with the plan..
Went to the gym after work..
Ran for about 20mins although I think I ran quite slowly..
My speed on the treadmill was only 7-8 compared to the others who ran at 9-10..
But I don't care, at least I ran enough to warm up my body..
Then, I did some weights..
And now my legs ache like hell!!
I think I'm going to take the lift tomorrow..
Dinner was nice.. Rice and soup..
I drank a bowl of soup to fill up my stomach first..
Then I took as little rice as I could manage so that I won't feel hungry..
I'm going rest early today..
Hope I won't have leg cramps when I sleep!!
In conclusion, I think this is a good start..
So far so good! Jia you!! Fighting!!

Diet is so difficult when you are a Chinese who loves Chinese food..
Rice and noodles are everywhere!
There's little opportunity to escape the carbs when you eat..
And worse, I love rice and noodles A LOT..
Next, it's the gravy.. Which means that starch/fats are included..
Being a Cantonese, my food is rarely dry..
Then, the fact that I am almost a carnivore makes diet worse..
Although I don't have to eat only veg, the consumption of veg itself is already torturing me..
The best veg are the green ones.. And I don't really like them..
I can handle tofus, beans, broccoli, cauliflower, potatoes, cooked carrots..
Give me celery and I'll puke immediately for you to see..
I think I love many food that are unhealthy..
Coke, Potato chips, sweets, chocolates, ice-cream.. *mouth watering*
How can I get out of these things that are not recommended for a healthy diet?!
And the bad thing is that outside food contain quite an amount of carbs..
I don't even have time to prepare my own meals..
And I think it's weird to be eating from my lunch box when my colleagues eat fried kway teow or nasi briyani..
Should I heck care about everything else and force myself to eat according to the healthy plan?
But am I that desperate to lose weight?
Am I determined enough to follow through everything?
(And I haven't even start on the exercise plan yet..)

I wonder if I can really heck care..
I thought I can heck care about some things..
It is difficult to do so because I still care to some extent..
I think that maybe I am just paranoid..
Why do I get the feeling that people are shocked by my decision?
I know that we are supposed to work in a field we studied in..
But there is no way I am going to MOE!
And there are no replies from the chemical industry!
I don't think this path is bad choice..
I knew people will comment on my choice..
That's why it took quite a while for me to decide..
But I decided that I should not care about what others think!
So I am just going to try my best to heck care!
Why are there so many 'heck care'? I saw it in the headlines of The New Paper today, so I decided to use it for this entry.
