Weight loss programmmm

And today, after weighing myself out, I realised that painstakingly, torturingly, 10kg has been lost! I've come a long way, 5 weeks and 3 days. Now 11 more kg to go, and I'll look normal. Hmm, it's a curious factor as to how I would look with that much weight lost...

Now, how the hell did I achieve it?

I guess the deciding factor came in around... 1 month plus ago?

"Dear Mr Lim Zi Hao

Your NS checkup has shown that your blood cholesterol is slightly above acceptable levels. Please consult a Polyclinic or personal physician to monitor your blood cholesterol level for health purposes.

Love,
CMPB"

Or something along those lines.

Anyway, I consulted a Polyclinic. The doctor's instructions were simple. Exercise more, no fast food, no egg yolks, no seafood...

WAIT A MINUTE. I CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT SEAFOOD.

So after that, I waged a full out war against my body, watching what I eat, exercising daily. First, to reduce my cholesterol levels to healthy levels. My next checkup will be on July. Hopefully I will be able to touch prawns after that.

But I discovered a new love in apples, which I learnt, are rich in Vitamin C, reduce blood cholesterol, and the peel has the effect of helping in weight loss and healthy digestion. I'll probably be eating more and more apples for the rest of my life.

Another reason I've been torturing myself is that I've been convinced I might actually look good without all the fat.

You can start laughing now.

Anyway, after hearing that, my motivation actually increased. I can be quite vain also, haha.

I've been running 3.2km daily, 150 sit ups daily, and I walk home from work on workdays. And trust me, I hate running. You can never get used to jogging. It tears your lungs apart, makes your entire body warm for a few hours and sometimes makes you want to puke. But I'm going to continue. Because I've got the motivation to go on.

Well, I'll be updating my progress again soon. Like I said before, support me morally!
