Bad weight management

Its been a month since Easter and my diet isn't improving much. Partly due to my urge of wanting more protein, but i guess majority is my discipline.

I am still doing my best at my workout routine. I am maintaining high power and endurance training, 5 reps of clean pull ups and 533 meters interval walk, 8 sets for every workout i am conducting. Usually each session takes about an hour and should burn around 530 calories. Technically, that's not alot, probably a burger would have neutralized it. But still, if I don't do it, I can't even burn off an extra burger.

After a series of upset stomach, i am going back to a slightly milder version of diet. Most of my breakfast are fried vermicelli noodles, fried eggs, anchovies, roast peanuts. Despite it looks like very decent, but still it's fried stuff. I'm still having mild indigestion, burping alot and my fart smells like a dead cat.

At times i settle my dinner with a bowl lf salad, a few dash of chicken and eggs and call it a day. To reemphasize I don't go and smell a dead cat, technically i don't know how a dead cat smells like except when i drove past a road kill carcass and that strong smell probably somewhat resemble my fart. I feel hungry, but i don't feel like eating all the time. My stomach growling, but i shit very little.

My job is getting really tough nowadays since we lost a huge deal. That leave me very little choice but to find business somewhere else. Not exactly sure what are the penalties if i get business from other states, but the hell with the company rules. The southern fellas are slowly eating into our central region businesses and nobody give a damn.

Having lunch with the client at the N9 state. Seriosuly, food taste way much better here compare to Kuala Lumpur. Seremban city is a slow moving town. I particularly like this place for their nice people. They have a nice local accent that sounded very near to Hong Kong. Even the HK style BBQ pork rice taste marvelous.

And a bowl of home cooked spaghetti Bolognese by the home minister is probably one of the best Bolognese i have in my life. No i have never been to Italy, so i dont know how they SHOULD taste like. I only know what i feels like eating. Nevertheless, these high glycemic index food probablh brought my sugar level to the roof and once again it had mt stomach punish me to the max. I need to half sitting at the bed through the night just to feel a little easy on my stomach bloating 😅

Caffeine intake has been reduced significantly. I am down to probably 1 - 2 portion of coffee. Starbucks has retracted their 50% voucher for 2nd purchase, so I don't feel like spending that much for their coffee anymore. Perhaps a seasalt pomelo frappe makes me happier than ever.

Hey, you're doing great! You may not see the results now but soon you'll get there. What's important is that you have taken the first step for the change that you desire. Keep moving forward @davidke20
I'll keep watch on your future posts and join you in your journey!

Thank you for the wise word. I will try to do better.

Malaysia is a big contender if tariffs are ever implemented in C.

The whole world seems to be a bluffing game until someone shows their true cards.

As for the diet that may be the problem. Are you bluffing yourself into thinking you are eating well? The caffeine is not half as bad as the sugar and whip cream they gave you at Starbucks. After fifty is time to reduce carbs a bit, add some fiber and veggies and protein and spend time stretching and relaxing the muscles with a roller and a small rolling ball. At this point our stretching time should equal our cardio and weight lifting time. Finally the stress. With all the stress you are getting, it is like holding in a big fart. Just let it out.

Malaysian already has a set of weird tariffs applied to cigarettes, alcohol beverages and cars. We don't legally produce cigarettes locally, so we apply an import tax of 300% for those. So as cars. Just because we have started "rebadging" cars in 1985, we decided to apply somewhere between 50% - 300% tax on imports. Oh btw, even the rebadged version of Mitsubishi which is supposed to be "local", is 15% more expansive then it's original price in Japan. Trade war? Malaysia already applied tariffs on many things even towards China 🤣 our cards are all over the place anyways, so we're waiting for the rest of the player to reveal their cards and we'll have to chop off a knee or toes to save some foreign invested manufacturer or we will be dead.

True on the worse choice of diet. Will be very careful to bluff myself next time 🤣 but the reduced amount of coffee does help a little bit on my sleep this whole week.

Work... Hmmm... I am trying to let out. I am having trouble finding something to balance it. I used to drink and getting wasted so badly until people taking photos of me standing at the bar table doing Cha Cha 😞 after those crazy years, I will usually run for an hour or two. Vo2max short burst run until I puke my brains out. With my current knee situation, I'm just glad to walk without a problem. I don't purposely release stress anymore, because I can't find anything really useful in "releasing". Jokes aside, farting does make me have a short sensation of relief, especially the heavy butane smell that drives the kids aways for a couple of minutes 🤣

哈哈哈,你这个配图绝了哈,看来拉叔也是喜欢功夫的。

其實,我比較喜歡小姐姐。

The key is to listen to your body. All your efforts will pay off in due course. Keep going.

Thank you very much. I will try

The stretching and exercise are great strides, but eating unhealthy might undermine your progress. Fried foods are basically junk - oily and bad for your health. Pair it with healthy eating habits, and you're there. Enjoy life 😉

Make sense. I need to be extra careful in choice of food from now on.

Thanks for posting in the ASEAN Hive Community.

I'm having difficulty dieting too! I feel so sad if I cannot eat those yummy foods. And yes you're right! Discipline is a must in doing such.

So true. Hardest part is always portion control. It's like a never ending battle.
