1000 and under

I honestly started taking this 'THE BIGGEST LOSER' contest seriously a week ago. I started my strict diet of eating only below 1000 calories per day 3 days ago. However, my no-rice diet started last week. It's really hard for me as I have so many people around me eating so many good stuff but I couldn't do that.

I cheated though, last week... I couldn't help it. I went to a wedding and they had nasi impit and I was like "HOW THE HECK AM I SUPPOSED TO RESIST THAT?!" and so I succumbed. Nasi Impit + Sambal Kacang + Chicken + Keropok made my whole week. One of the days at kampung, I got Syahmi to suap me a spoon of fried rice and fireworks were coming out of me. I was that happy.

Anyway, to keep with my under 1000 calories diet, I eat wholegrain bread and the lauk cooked for lunch and dinner. And for breakfast, I eat something below 300 calories. Plain water became my best friend. On one of the days I ate cream puff without knowing that they have so many calories and ended up regretting for the rest of the day. It was just wholegrain bread for me that day.

I have now lost about 1.2 kg in those 3 days. Today is my cheat day though, I'm having rojak pasembur for lunch!!! That's like 800 calories. Hah.

Last week flew by so quickly, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I hope every week leading up to my flight back to Malaysia goes by just as swiftly. It was also incredibly productive! At work, I discovered an issue with my project. Instead of getting overwhelmed and overthinking it, I approached it like an experienced engineer and tackled it head-on. It's amazing how much stress overthinking can cause. Here's to more days like that!  On Monday, Don and I went cycling. Initially, we didn't expect to cover much distance, but this time we went the farthest compared to all our previous rides. My favorite part was cycling on an actual road for half the route; it boosted my confidence riding on the road. Wednesday was tennis day, and I'm starting to really enjoy it because we had our own dedicated coach. We focused on drills to improve our ball-handling skills because I still can't keep a rally going. Friday brought us badminton and a game of "7Wonders" at Meriam...

Got through

It's been 7 months since I started working but it feels like I just started yesterday. Minus the nervousness of going to work, anxiety of being around people and not knowing anything at all, of course. The first few months had been a journey for me and now that I've gotten through it, I don't really hold back on telling everyone I meet about it! It's very interesting to remember about how just a few months ago, I wouldn't go a single week without crying in the shower. And how I'd think ten thousand times before and after talking to anyone. How I would always be in this bubble of insecurities where I'm always thinking that everything I did was wrong. I wish I knew what had changed so I can tell all of you going through difficult times what it was but I really couldn't pin point it. But for all that matters, I love my life right now. I love the days when I'm able to sleep in for a bit longer in the morning but I also enjoy the days when I...
