Oily & Fattening

Just came back from a slow and sweaty jog. Felt invigorating. I guess the toxins and the noodles, xiaolongbao and the red bean buns have been purged through the pores as sweat. Recently fell in love with jogging, don't know why. Last time I hate to exercise because sweat would make my skin itch and I hate that (Afterwhich I realise it's due to the UV rays from the sun).

Was never slim, I was not fat, but chubby and pudgy : ) I used to envy slim girls with super high metabolism rate. No matter how much they gobble, they remain the same. Guess if I were to do that, I would balloon and be outcasted from society. When I was a teenager, I loved spaghetti strapped tops from Soda Jeans, but because of my big arms, I refrained from wearing them. Instead, I wore T-shirts. There is not much of variety, actually, until I decided to lose weight and shape up. These are the few ways I did:

1. Skipped dinner because had upsized fries and upsized iced lemon tea in the noon with sworn sister. That was in secondary school -> Failed
2. Jogged 12 times round the stadium track everyday. Metabolism surged and hunger set in. Had extra 2 - 3 scoops of rice during dinner. That was in JC -> Failed, but stamina was invincible
3. Skipped dinner and drank 1 big cup of bubble tea (and sometimes two) every Friday with sworn sister. That was in JC and post JC -> Failed
4. Went swimming every alternate day and munching Jack & Jill chips / Hershey's chocolate bar on my way home from the pool -> Failed, looked like Joscelin Yeo and all, despite a nice golden tan
5. Resorted to seeing the doc for an effective weight-loss program. Lost weight from 60 - 53kg. That was post JC -> Failed cos the hole in my pocket was getting bigger and bigger. Who can withstand bleeding of $70 every month then?
6. Skipped lunch. That was in SIM -> Needless to say, Failed cos I was in a delirium every single day.
7. Tried 3 boxes of Extrim in 3 months -> Failed. Kept running to the toilet after each meal and it kills my bank account as well.
   
8. Walked up the stairs 5 times on alternate days -> Failed. Nice and toned butt, but my knees gave way.

Guess those were the days. Usually when one gets older, they cannot be that bothered to go all out to lose weight. Work is already a chore..All you want to do after work is a good meal and maybe a nice drink, afterwhich go home watch some TV and sleep.

Just like me right now..I am going to bathe, pull Boyboy to sleep and retire to slumberland, in preparation for tomorrow's war.

What the fuck. Tomorrow's only Friday.
