Of Pounds and Ounces

Selamat Hari Raya.

 

Maaf Zahir dan Batin. Dah 22 Syawal. How time flies...

 

As usual, the normal grouses post hari raya would be about the weight everybody gained despite the fasting during ramadhan and puasa 6. And I'm not spared too.

 

I lost 3 kg during ramadhan and gained 4kg now.

 

I never had any weight issue before I reached 35 years old. I was the kind of gal who can eat like there's no tomorrow and still maintain at 52kg. When I was pregnant full term, my weight was 60kg. And back to 52kg post partum. No diet restriction required. No exercise required. Of the rack clothes was easy to find. Everything look nice on me.

 

But that was 7 years ago. And I constantly gained 2kg every year for the past 7 years. Last sunday, I weigh 66kg!!!

 

I know I have to do something to stop the weight gain if not reduce it. I have to make a lifestyle change.

 

FIRST STEP:

 

I NEED TO EXERCISE. I NEED TO EXERCISE. I NEED TO EXERCISE.

 

I need to get my butt off. I have not been exercising since god knows when. May be not for the last 5 years or so. Kerja rumah memang tak buat lah kan since my bibik is so efficient. Habis satu rumah dengan gardening dia buat. So, starting this week, 26th of August 2013, I will at least TRY brisk walking a few times a week. We'll see how long I manage to do it.

 

If I can do the first step diligently, then only I will think on the second step... hehehehe
