Post Pregnancy Weight Loss

IT IS SO DIFFICULT TO LOSE! Serve me right seriously. I've gained at least 26kg during the whole pregnancy. I am currently 65.9kg(at least), and 66.4kg (at most). I've got 10 to 11kg more to go? I am not doing a strict diet as I am still breastfeeding my child, and definitely want to be a responsible mother. My Carb-less diet only applies to dinner. Breakfast are not consider carb-less as oats contains a small amount of carbohydrate. In general, I try to cut carbohydrate but not totally take it off my diet..
I used to lose weight very easily! All I need was 2 to 4 weeks of diet watch (includes occasional drinking) and workout 2 times a week... and I can get the body I want. Now, I think it requires double the effort!

Being fat is not a sin, please do not get me wrong. It just causes a lot of aches and pains. For example, my plantar fasciitis came back and it really hurts really bad every time I walk. My old hip injury I had from dance came back. My thigh and knee joints hurts every single time I attempt to get up from sitting or lying. My posture is haywire! My core muscles is not strong. I really need to visit my myotherapist coming week and start pilates sooooooon!!! What is more disturbing? I cannot seem to jog cause my new weight is hurting my knee, running a few minutes made me feel so heavy and uncomfortable. SIGH.

Thank God for Jessica from Neuage clinic for introducing Figurerobics by Jung Da Yeon. It is a low impact workout and you can really perspire buckets! Always feel good after doing the workout. For those who is struggling with their weight and are facing problems like me (old woman body), can always try out! Good things are always worth sharing. You can get the DVDs from Qoo10 if you are really into it!

After much consideration, I guess I will not go for liposuction. I should only do it if I really try so damn hard to lose but fail or only after 2-3 kids. Going under knife will be the last option. Not that I am against plastic surgery ( I am actually quite open for plastics, hehe) but there are so many accidents that happened during lipo! I was quite taken aback when I google Liposuction deaths. LOL. Perforation, Overdose on sedation... whats not. Scarli haven't even suck out the fats, then just die on table due to overdose of GA. Damn scary.

In conclusion, I just want back my old weight, 55kg. 51kg is tooo slim for me, I've tried it and I do not like it. I don't look good being too skinny.

To my friends who are working out too, YOU CAN DO IT! Never give up! Giving up is the worst thing you can do! If you are thinking whether to exercise today or not, JUST DO IT, Do not ponder. After working out, you will feel happy and satisfied! OR you can text me! We can motivate each other! Jiayou everyone!



Love my girl, she is just so cute even when she cries.. haha!

Pregnancy Fatigue... Woes..... BUT!

It comes and goes without any warning. The past week had been really tiring both physically and mentally. I could sleep as early as 9pm, and wake up as though I have not slept through the night. Totally zombified. During work, I look forward to going to bed more than anything else... more than eating.... more than dessert. YES! DESSERT! no kidding. zzz. I could not endure the sudden onset of rapid bloating, pain, fatigue... guess what! When I lie supine on my bed for maybe... 10mins? then change position to lateral, my pussy hurts like fuck! REALLY PAINFUL!
Thankfully, I managed to call in my masseuse for a good massage, introduced by my hermes SA! She is strong and I fell asleep as the massage was toooo shiok. haha. Last lap of pregnancy is really not easy. There are so many things I have to accept. e.g. MY SUDDEN BLOATING. Whenever I laugh or smile... I couldn't feel my cheeks, neither can my eyes be seen. LOL.
On good days, I could go shopping and hang out with friends, but it lasts no more than 4 hours. By the 4th hour, my energy level dropped drastically, I could feel the weight on my pelvis and my face looked as though I am hypoglycemic.

Right.. all will be gone soon. I look forward to weight loss after pregnancy and will definitely share my journey on weight loss! by the way.................... I have already gained 24KG!!!!!!!!!! For the upcoming week, I plan to have..
Breakfast: Oats with eggs instead of bread.. nasi lemak... bee hoon .....
Lunch is going to be slightly unhealthy because there are limited choice (ahem,... excuses actually, there are super healthy food selling at paragon... HAHA!). Fine! Lunch is cheat meal, unless I feel like eating healthy.
Dinner will be at home! Steamed fish.. soup... BROWN RICE...
Dessert : Birdnest/strawberries/papaya milkshake. NO ICE CREAM ALLOWED ANY MORE.
It is easier to say/type than to be done. Really got to be more disciplined so that post natal meal restrictions will be easier for me to handle!

OH YES! I am also looking around and reading up for stretch mark removal lasers that is effective. IF IT IS EFFECTIVE I WILL SHARE DEFINITELY. IF it is not, I will share too, so that you guys dont waste your money. haha!  It is really depressing to have our skin ruined just because of pregnancy. AND I do not believe in looking ugly/aunty post pregnancy. I AM SO LOOKING FORWARD TO POST CONFINEMENT, where I can start planning my meals, workout... and do whatever that needs to be done to be normal again. Does not mean after having a kid I will not have time for myself right? Just got to move that huge ass of mine! Haha!

Hey! That being said, it is really amazing to have a little one wriggling in your tummy. On random moments she will give me a big kick! Funny and cute at the same time. Can't wait to see her face, how she will look like... how her character will be... Hehe. Gonna be exciting but scared at the same time, I really WANT a total natural birth...NO Pethidine/ NO Epidural/ NO Caesarian! I hate the side effects of Pethidine and Epidural, Some mamas that does epidural complain of achiness over their waist. Some, complain of side effects of Pethidine... VOMITING (Had enough vomiting during 1st trimester. DO NOT WANT TO GO THROUGH IT AGAIN! ROAR!) For casearian, the only thing I dread is recovery, it takes about 3 weeks to recover from that cut? OR is it even longer? I do not dread the scar.... I DREAD wasting my time lying around and restricted to do any exercise. BOO! I hope I can go through the pain and at the same time baby teo will come out smmoooooooothly.


Hehe.
