Day56 - 18th May 2011

Today is the 3rd week of weight loss challenge. Sadly, my result was not encouraging, instead losing weight, I put on another 500gm. Buy my dear sister is doing fantastic, she won the biggest cm losses and lost 2kg also. Good job sista!

I'm doing post mortem and have identified few things to improve to get back myself into shape :-

• to drink 8-10 litres in a day. Minimum standard is 8 litres and the goal is to achieve 10 litres. I noticed the reason I have gained weight this week due inconsistent of water intake which has reduced from 7-8 litres to 6-7 litres daily.

• to take 2 shakes in a day and to take during breakfast and lunch and normal meal for dinner. What happened last time was I tried to be flexible, as if I couldn't take shake for lunch, I take it for dinner. But, I noticed this flexibility give me room to cheat and since I don't want that, so I'm going to stick shake for breakfast and lunch.

• For my normal meal, as what I learned today, to follow mickey mouse concept, where vegetables portion as mickey mouse face, meat/protein as another ear and carbohydrate as another ear. The foods to consumer also must close to nature and eat raw as possible. Example, compared rice and potato, better to take potato, between fresh salads and stir fry vegetables, it's better to take fresh salads since it's still raw.

I considered day off today, though I had Nutrition 1-2-3 during breakfast and dinner. Lunch as normal meal, rice with vegetables, chicken and rice. But, after coming back from JJ, I felt so frustrated I ended up ate keropok and 3/4 meegoreng mamak kambing . Feel so bad, I had 400 ml warm tea after that.

Life is a journey, that has its own ups and downs. Same goes to my losing weight journey, but what important is to quickly GET UP and not give up. I'm positively assured that tomorrow will be a better day . Adios!
