Being Discipline... or at least making an effort to...

Okay... so you know how the typical asian family has high expectations about everything? Well, fortunately, my parents aren't typical but unfortunately, my aunts and uncles are. Very typical. Super Competitive. Harshly critical.

As the date to return home creeps nearer and nearer, a new determination has popped into my head... I have to lose weight. I have to squash the irritating remarks of "Wow!! Do they have really good food in Vancouver? Coz you put on weight!!" and "Do you remember your cousin E? She can join your Fat Club now... both of you can shake hands!!" that usually greet me when I meet them during Chinese New Years or family reunions.

And so... I have been going to the gym.. almost everyday... and not only that... to Oz's despair, I have only been buying bananas, oranges, grapefruits and Oatmeal every time I go grocery shopping...

Apparently, one of the best ways to lose weight is to keep a food journal... I guess reminding yourself of what you have binged on and how much it might cost your hard work and effort is a good way to stave off the hunger... on the bright side, I will be able to save money too (grocery shopping is what I spend a lot of money on... T.T) So... here goes nothing and I hope this will actually work!!

GOOD LUCK TO ME!!
