I skipped my breakfast, cause I was unable to wake up at 10am, and in fact, I slept through my alarm till 1pm. I woke up today, top on the scale, and I'm 63kg. Yeah, it's a big number, but I'm kinda positive, cause I know it's going to go down!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Anyway, this diet was really fun. Cause I forced myself to walk twice to woolies to get my lunch and dinner ingredients. And, I also forced myself to walk to Brunetties to get myself some mini macarons for snack. So before I finally indulge on my 80 calories per piece macaron, I actually get to burn off about 100 calories by forcing myself to walk there.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Oh ya, I also found these noodles from a nearby asian grocer called "dried shrimp noodles", and there are only about 90 calories per piece, and 0g fats too! It's actually something that I've heard from one of my Hong Kong friends- it was something that she ate when she was on a diet (and she's really thin now, so I have to listen to her piece of advice). It actually tasted really good, with a little bit of oyster sauce and pepper, and it's really cheap, about $1.39 for 10 noodles. The down side, they have MSG in their noodles... argh.. why does everything good comes with a down side? I tried washing off the noodles after draining them (hoping that the MSG will come of- I know it won't, but it kinda makes me feel better).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

My weight is shooting up. Yes, shooting. I hate myself. I hate myself for eating. Why do I need to splurge on those calories. And now, I can't even fit nicely into my pretty pink jacket that I've bought few months ago. And I've wasted so much money on diets, slimming programs, and everything is back and worst than ever! I used to be only 48kg and now... I'm freaking 63kg (I hate to admit this, cause I'm really embarassed by my weight. You may think 63kg is nothing, but bare in mind, I'm really really short. I'm only 157cm). I look like some portobello mushrooms. The big body, with short fat legs. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I really need to be stern with myself, and I'm hoping *fingers crossed*, that by blogging in a new blog address (hopefully, no one out there is going to know that it's me), I will have some pressure to maintain my weight loss goal.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I'm thinking of doing an achievable diet plan, something that will stop my sweet cravings *hopefully*, and to shed pounds off my body before my graduation this december. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
OK. So, this is what I'm going to do.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
1. A good and healthy diet plan&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Breakfast - 10am ( I hate to wake up really early, so this sounds like a logical plan for me)&lt;br /&gt;
1 tablespoon manuka honey with warm water- 50 calories&lt;br /&gt;
1 hard boiled egg - 100 calories&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lunch - 1pm&lt;br /&gt;
1 slice of toast/ 1 small roll/ 1/2 cup of cooked rice- 100 calories&lt;br /&gt;
1 small canned tuna / 2 small cocktail frankfurters/ fish cakes / egg- 100 calories&lt;br /&gt;
any vegetables except avocados, yam, sweet potatoes, potatoes, corn, peas (those carb-ish types) blanched with hot water with salt, pepper, soy sauce, sugar and a little oil for taste- 100 calories&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dessert/ Splurge/ Indulges! *** 3-4pm - 200 calories&lt;br /&gt;
- Good quality ice cream/ Frozen yogurt/ 1 small macaron/ 1 small piece of kit kat/ anything in between 200 calories that can make me really satisfied! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dinner- 7-8pm&lt;br /&gt;
- seafood (canned/ fresh) / eggs/ fish cakes/ chicken breast - 200 calories&lt;br /&gt;
- vegetables- huge servings - steamed/ blanched/ stir-fry with a little salt, pepper, sugar and soy- 100 calories&lt;br /&gt;
- 1 tablespoon olive oil/ sesame oil (to go with vegetables)-100 calories&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Around 9-10pm *** if I'm really hungry/ dying&lt;br /&gt;
- 1 hot milo / horlick - 100 calories&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Before bed:&lt;br /&gt;
1 tablespoon manuka honey with warm water ( to prevent gastric)- use good quality honey - 50 calories&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Total: 1200 calories &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;2. Exercise plan&lt;/b&gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
August - 45 minutes of Zumba everyday except period days&lt;br /&gt;
September - 45 minutes Zumba in the morning + 20 minutes zumba in the evening&lt;br /&gt;
October - 45 minutes Zumba in the morning + 40 minutes zumba in the evening&lt;br /&gt;
November- Same as October&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Monday, wednesday, friday, sunday- shopping (Walk around and try new clothes, or look into your wardrobe, and try on old clothes- give myself some inspiration to lose weight)&lt;br /&gt;
Tuesday, thursday, saturday- house chores&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;3. Diet Rules&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. Cannot buy food in bulks, only get what I need for that meal. For example, walk to the city (I'm staying somewhere near melbourne cbd) if I need ice cream for snacks, walk to woolies if I need my canned tuna or vegetables for lunch. Yeah! Walk! Walk! Walk!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. Sunday is break day. I can eat whatever, and whenever I want. *but control!*&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3. Eat only during the time allocated. If not, I will miss my meal.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4. Write a blog of my daily weight in, and take a photograph of myself.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5. No diets and exercise during period (I get really sick during this time)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6. If going out for dinner with friends (and it's unavoidable to miss), order something low fat and small.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7. No fried food and instant food.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
8. No sitting in front of telly. Move around, hula hoops etc.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
9. No sugar loaded carbonated drinks- drink sugarfree options. And if can, try to avoid any sweet drinks, drink plain warm water. If still can't resist the urge, drink iced green tea (sugarfree) (good quality ones). &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
PS: I can't think of much rules now, I shall edit this later when I thought of something new.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;4. Goals&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. Able to wear a size AU 6 dress by the 15th of December 2011. (I think I'm a size 10-12 now)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. 45kg by 15th of December 2011 (NOTE: this is not something unhealthy, I'm only 157 cm!)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Goals- breakdown&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
August- lose 5kg- 57kg&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
September- lose 5kg - 52kg&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
October- lose 5kg - 47 kg&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
November - lose 2kg - 45kg&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
PS: I know it'll be really hard to lose weight around october- november (plateau), so I might adjust my diet plan again by october. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
