The Change III

Now it has come to the end of third month of my change of dietary intake. I started not taking rice on 21st of May, and today 20th of August. Now the scale shows 80 kg, indicating that I’ve lost at least 10 kg of my weight before I actually started the diet.

Along this period, many have recognized the change in my body shape. And nothing I can respond but to say thanks to them. I personally love my physical appearance more now. But this is not the end of it. I need to constantly do what I’m doing now, which is to avoid rice from my meals. I tell you, it’s not too hard to do this. Seriously! You just need a little sacrifice and patience and there you go – you lost your weight!

However, there are some problems I encountered with the lost of 10 kg. One of them is certainly my trousers! They have been loose for me to wear, not to say “too loose” because I can still put them on, but they reach the ground requiring me to fold the bottom of the trousers. Besides that I need to find new belt since the ones I have don’t fit my new waist line. About my shirts, XLs still do, but now Ls fit me more (and yet showing my fit body shape har har har). When will appear the six packs?! Owh day dreaming. Much more to do than just avoiding rice – work out!

10 kg in 3 months I think isn’t that drastic, but my girlfriend (ya I admit I’m in a relationship) said it is. I asked my friend taking dietetic course, he said it’s ok. Ah! Whatever! As long as I’m happy with the result I got with my little sacrifice and patience, who cares? Next coming month will be a month in which Muslims fast for 30 days followed by Hari Raya. I’m looking forward to making a surprise to my relatives, and my parents even! They haven’t seen me for more than a month. You know what I mean right? Har har har...

I still don’t know when I will actually start eating rice again although it’s available anywhere I go. I still don’t have the appetite to eat rice, I mean nasi putih. Nasi goreng – we’ll see some day ok? I’m afraid if I start taking rice into my meal, my appetite cannot be controlled anymore. So it’s better not to take it yet. Not now.
