Stealing Carbs

Morning Weigh in: 62.8kg

Not too sure why recently but I have been stealing carb foods. Potato chips yum. Sauces yum. Ice cream yum. If I had skipped on all those I would have well reached my target carb gram a day.

I figured however base on the cultivation of the better habits I got, it seems easier to find SUBSTITUTES for what I am used to eating than forcing myself to forgo the foods. Also best to plan my meal times or food intake in accordance to my expected outing trips with friends to save stress. Like, I can give up eating rice, noodles and such because I sub with soups that also fill me up in the same effect in the tummy. I can give up drinking soda cos I drink diet soda. And I normally can give up stupid snacks I've started liking to eat because there are peanuts. I can eat chips too-- but those are high carb when eaten too much and the salt is addictive-- better to go back to nuts and cheese.

So what is the sub for ice-cream? Don't know but so far note that vanilla flavors and soft-serves are not as "bad" as the others.Am going to do some research. For the day before and yesterday, here's the diet content:

Weight Loss RELOAD!

I have been lazy for almost 1.5 months now. From Aug 11, when I got married, I was at 65 kg. Almost two months since then I lost another 2.5 kg-- but I only just gained back one kilo last week.

My original goal was to reach 45 kg by the time Dec 4 comes-- but due to all my lack of discipline, I guess I have to push back the goal date a little. I was using excel to record my food and carb intake, but since I would always write some comments at the side, thought that I might as well use a blog.

Ok! This is Day One! By my calculation, if I were to continue losing 1 kilo per week, I should reach 55 kg.
The plan is simple: Keep carbs to 40-60grams, walk around as much as possible, do some cycling whenever I can. Will step up the diet and exercise intensity only by the time I reach the 50s, because I know myself too well-- I cant keep a long term 20min a day exercise plan lols.

Today:

Breakfast:
Cafe21 Coffee, 7 grams, 70 cal

:Lunch
Yong Tau Hu, 15 grams, 160 cal

Throughout
Venti Latte, 24 grams, 160 cal

Snack
Chips, 15.5 grams, 60 cal

Dinner
Soup with meat
Seasoned meat cube and vegetables 10 grams, 160 cal

Total: 71.5 grams, 610 cal

Verdict: Carbs were too high for my body to burn my own fat. Need to stop being spoiled and get back to normal Cafe21 Coffee. Chips should be banned too to keep it below 60 grams. Also I plan to keep this blog at least until I reach 55kilos. Ideally I should push on until I reach the forties, because not only is it healthy, I also know that is the weight that I look best in. I certainly don't lack determination, but I know I lack patience, so another hope I have for this blog is that by having this I could remind myself that I want to do this for me, and as long as I don't give up, I will reach the goal some day.
