OK, So it has been 3 years since I started this blog. Rather than focusing on the events that have happened in the past years, I have decided to refocus on the present.
And the first issue on hand for this SAHM is WEIGHT LOST.. or at least the idea of having some kilos shredded off me.
Growing up, excess weight has never been an issue for me. I was a small kid whom at secondary 1, my classmates have mistook me sitting in for a younger sibling of the actual student. In my early 20s, I stood at 1.63m tall and barely at 47kg.. pretty decent I must say. Life was breezy then, had an awesome job, traveled a few continents and so basically wasting away my time with minimal commitments.
Then marriage came at 25 years of age, and within 4 months we found out that I was conceived with our first child. Super physched! Apart from the occasional emotional meltdowns, craving for anything associated with fish and vomiting throughout my 1st trimester, I must say that I actually enjoyed the pregnancy. And so Pom was born in January 2007, and I was at 65kg. In the first year... a very slow first year.. I have managed to go down to 56kg at best. And the weight stays, I had to demoralizing upgrade my clothes size from Small to Medium. It was ok... I accepted it eventually.
Little did I know that when I found out that I were conceived yet again in 2010... things got pretty heavy (dun mind the pun) drastically from then on. Argh, I worked back then at a private school as an administrator and so our lunch time were pretty flexible. And I were craving a lot... and I meant a lot of varied dishes or desserts. Honestly, I were fit as a fiddle... second pregnancy,... a legend... and I love to walk. Unfortunately, the primary motivation of those longgggggg walks were mainly due to getting to the destinations of my current food crave at that particular point of day. This occurred very much so often especially during my 3rd trimester.
By then I was over 70kg prolly more. Working at the city hall area, I remembered that once or twice, in the scorching heat of noon, I managed to walk from my work place to tekka market and back just a packet of indian rojak.. yummy! Once i even took a train to harbourfront just for a plate of char kuay teow. .. all in a hour. I didnt trouble anyone for my cravings and Hubs trusted me fully on the sensibility that I did not overworked myself. Oh well, to cut the story short... I were a rock star! As being pregnant gave me the licence to stuff my face, or at at pretend, even though I did do feel that I should hold back just a bit.
Nevertheless, in all honestly... concerning the amount of food intake I took during my last trimester...it wasn't that all bad. My last weigh in prior to delivery was at 78kg though.
Bub came healthy into the world in July 2011 and weight dropped to 60kg.... within 3 months. Not too shabby right? :)
All is well... except that we just celebrated Bub's 4th birthday 2 weeks ago... and Im still at 60kg.
Forget about Medium.. I have since left the boat.. and moved on to Large.
So alas, that's my weight story...
Coming on 1st August 2015 though... I will be starting a 1 month August challenge. I don't see it a weight loss programme or detox regiment. I will just see it as ...,hay! lets just try the product for fun...30 days exactly and see if theres any different.
I'm seriously not putting my hope up at all...as I'm pretty cynical. But I will give it a benefit of doubt and see if I can prove myself wrong.
So stay tuned...
