I now weigh 92.1 kg. I have lost almost 10 kgs since October 2009, but I’ve just recovered from a temporary setback. I think for two-three weeks in Feb I ate heavy, fatty food and that dented my progress. I love my curry, and more importantly, I love curry cooked by my mom and my mom-in-law. So I went down to 92.2 kg in early Feb and then climbed back up to 93.8 kg in the following fortnight.
I was and am still working out regularly (3-4 times a week) but it really is true, what they say about food intake being a major factor in weight gain and loss.
I’m back on track now. Lighter than I’ve been in years, wearing size 14s and size 16s – mostly size 16s.
I went shopping recently. Tried on what must have been dozens of clothing items. Most I didn’t like but what I really came away with is how overweight I still am.
I mean, I shouldn’t be surprised. I’ve lost 10 kgs but I still have 17 kgs to go before I’m within touching distance of a ‘normal’ weight.
Those changing room mirrors know no subtlety. so I felt sad that I couldn’t fit into all the 16s and 14s I picked out. I refused to buy larger sizes because I want to make myself wait till I lose more of this weight before I reward myself.
