woke up and had a banana. then had a bowl of soup and a baguette. the soup was 100 calories. not bad and very filling.
lunch: had half a roti, 1/3 baguette and a small plate of butter chicken.
snack: a cup of apricot meetha.
dinner: 5 Tbsp rice, 2 Tbsp butter chicken, 4 Tbsp sauteed meat.
no formal exercise except a walk around the neighborhood holding my daughter in my arms and running errands for 2 hours prior to that. i'm tempted to sit on the bike and pedal away but a) i'm sleepy, 2) i'm too full.
i'm mysteriously feeling very full easily these days. maybe my stomach's shrinking! it's amazing how little our body needs to get by. still, we overeat.
today, i celebrated a little accomplishment: my diet/exercise routine is 26 days old. i've never stuck to anything for this long. it's worth tipping the hat for!

You appear to be doing well. Though I can't help but notice butter chicken featuring in your intake quite a bit. Does it? Or am I just re-reading the same sentence over and over again?
ReplyDeleteGood luck!
Okay, I just read through your whole blog, from start to finish. Butter Chicken features twice. Not too bad.:P
ReplyDeleteI think you work out for way toooo long. Shorter sessions, less stress, a more achievable realistic goal. Easier to form a habit with shorter sessions.
Apologies if I'm sounding a little like a patronising drill sergeant. Force of habit. :)
But seriously, you might even enjoy shorter sessions more, and feel less exhausted. That's all I got.
Thanks so much for your feedback. I do not mind anything you say. As I was writing my previous posts and looked back from time to time, I noticed exactly what you noticed. My eating habits are not the best, but then it takes a bit of time changing long-inculcated habits. Sigh..
ReplyDeleteI hope you will give more feedback whenever you can, even if it's the drill sergeant type. I need it.
P.S: I've fallen off the wagon. No exercise in 10 days since family was in town visiting. I tried my best to watch what I ate but I could've done better. Oh well. Tonight's a new night.
