Quest #1: Diet
Since I still don’t have the resources to go with my friends to the gym, I thought of other ways on how to go about my quest to lose weight that doesn’t involve money. On top of the list is changing my diet.
If Sesame Street has the Cookie Monster, Alpha Homes also has the Rice Monster - me. A meal doesn’t feel like a meal without this. Even if I’ve eaten a full burger meal at McDonald’s or whatever burger food chain, it just feels inadequate. I still seek for the aroma, texture and the taste of rice.
Unfortunately, rice is one of the main culprits that makes people gain weight. So for my first move, I’ll try to, if not eliminate, at least minimize my intake of rice. A cup (measuring unit) of rice a meal will maybe do the trick. I guess this would also mean that I won’t be going to establishments that serve unlimited rice anymore… bye bye Banok’s, bye bye Penong’s, buy buy buffet… =(
Other than rice, I’ll also TRY to stay away from fattening foods such as sweets (chocolates, cakes, etc.) and sodas (Coke, Pepsi, Pop, Sprite and the lot). Hay… I hope this works…~♪
creating projectiles orally seems to run in the family doesn’t it? hehe :D...

just because you can’t hit the gym yet doesn’t mean you can’t exercise. jog around the neighborhood (for at least 20 minutes, while keeping your pace and heartrate up). that’ll be fun - being hunted down by rabid dogs might help a lot, hehe.
bicycle, dance~ uhm. wrestle. hehe XD
no to rice!

i’ve had my fair share of being hunted down by rabid dogs (you know about those instances. hehe ^_^) and i tell you it’ll keep your heart rate up for more than 20 minutes ^_^
actually i’m experimenting on the first week. i want to know how much weight i’ll lose just by dieting and without doing any cardio vascular activity ^_^

i think you’re looking for an excuse to escape the gym XD
but yeah, that would make a good progress chart. diet first. in the next week, will you just hit the gym and eat normally, and then for the third, do both? *excited for you*
cutting off iced tea from your system does wonders, promise! or soda in your case~
