Last Tuesday was the D-Day to find out whether all the hardwork and weeks of enduring muscle aches paid off - the day where certain parts of my body were measured. Since returning to the gym and 6 circuit training workouts, I am deliriously happy with the result - it's progressing well although the body fat % is not reducing at the rate I hoped. Advised by Alex to change my diet if I wish to accelerate reducing my body fat % especially cutting down on oily, fried food, curry which I find hard to do. Hey, who can resist temptations from friends' invites to dinner with the initial intention to eat light but ended going on a binge and ate a huge serving of greasy sinful meal. Can't talk about Alex's advise on diet and gym workouts in Tan Sri's presence, otherwise he'll start his anti-gym speech and conspiracy theories. If mak comes over and stays with me, I tend to indulge myself in mak's cooking. The Perakians describe it as "muntahkedarah". On other days, I'll strive with a great amount of difficulty to restrict to small portion of everything, eat lots of fruits especially apples and avoid heavy dinner or no dinner at all after 8 p.m. Alex has given up trying to get me to change my diet but he 'punished' me by increasing the weights, and more strenuous routines especially around the waistline.
When I decided to sign up with FF last year, it was not to lose weight but more for health reasons. I went for my annual medical check-up last year and was informed by the specialist that my cholesterol level was high. I was taken aback because I thought that I was fit with running here and there, very much on the go and have never experienced any significant health issues. The doc said it was not that serious that I need to be on medication but I need to exercise a lot. Acknowledging the fact that my family has history of illnesses associated with cholesterol level like stroke, heart etc, I was heavily concern. I do not know whether my cholesterol level has decreased to its normal level but I will soon find out when I go for my annual check up again soon.

I gave up on dieting long time ago ... it doesn't really make any difference & I just realised that I'd rather lick a cow's butt than refrain from enjoying one's of life's greatest pleasures ... I love food too much lah, cannot lah ... :-)
Strict diet tu taklah. Kantoi jugak most of the time like tonite. I try to eat sensibly whenever I can. Going to the gym helps to burn off the calories. I love food too but not sure about licking the cow's butt thingy :D.
