I have decided to put on hold our usual wedding discussion and focus on my weight loss plan this week! Actually, I have purchased the newly released wedding and travel magazine at Kinos on Sat and was looking forward to reading it. However, I am too bushed flipping through it after a long, arduous Gym workout. So now it's still lying on my table unwrapped heh heh. Anyway, I have made plans to document my weight loss plan on the wedsite, so that I can stay focused and see progress (I hope!) along the way, haha! Hmm, as I will be taking the wedding photos in Dec this year, I hope to shake off at least 10 Kg just in time to look good for the photo shoot! I have been cutting back on suppers, high carb food by adopting the exercise and calorie deficiency weight loss plan. The weight loss program actually sounds simple: You need to create a calorie deficit of 500kcals/day to lose 0.5-1 Kg per week. This is made possible by cutting back on calories, exercising, or both. In this way, you make progressive weight loss by ensuring body fat is lost instead of muscle and water. I have started off by jogging at least twice a week with Weisiang (each jog approx 30-40 mins) and 2 gym sessions per week. I have also been going for dragonboating once every 2 weeks. So far, the progress has been good, and I have lost about 3 Kg since May. Will definitely keep up the good work. In the meantime, I have also signed up for the Passion Run and the Shape Run. I was quite a bit pensive about signing up for the Shape Run esp. since it's my 1st attempt at the 10KM. But I have decided to go ahead, as it will be a good test of my willpower, and at the same time, motivate myself to continue exercising so that I can be fit enough to challenge myself for the long distance run. For those ladies who are also keen in joining me for the run, do sign up at www.shape.com.sg! There's a fabulous runners kit worth $870 for those who complete the run! That includes a Nike Sweat Tee!
