I am officially no longer MORBIDLY OBESE! Even exacerbated asthma can't bum me out today!!!
Okay, I thought yesterday was Sunday. hahahahha. I got ahead of myself with the SUMMER SLIMMIN' CHALLENGE check-in.
But that's fine. At least I did check in.
Today, I hit a milestone I've been so looking forward to. I've lost 40 pounds. Yay.
I weighed in at 258.6.
So, 40.4 pounds to be exact.
The extra protein is totally helping.
Today, hubby wanted a burrito, so we did a LIME takeout. I was afraid I'd do my bingey thing like I usually do with Italian or Mexican (my two major bingey fave cuisines). Nope. I ate a good amount of the lower carb South Beach beef burrito I ordered. But I didn't finish it. This is a RARE occurrence, having leftover burrito. Me loves burrito!!!
I left about 1/4th, which I wrapped for a leftover snack. I didn't finish the guacamole (I usually do) or the salsa (I usually do) and I didn't have a single tortilla chip. I had a few mouthfuls of refried beans, and have plenty for high fiber snacking.
Really happy I didn't go nuts.
Hoping my last two SS Challenge weigh-ins are satisfying ones.
This is a new week. Let's be very good to our bodies....

For those people who weight train, BMI does not count but we humans are curious creatures. I did a little calculating just now. Below are my BMI stats. My height 152cm. Small yet still obese. Sigh. But nevertheless, I will work hard!
Underweight=42kg(18.2)
At least=43kg(BMI=18.5)
Lean=44kg(BMI 19)
Ideal=45kg(BMI 19.5)
Normal=43kg-58kg(BMI 18.5-24.9)
Overweight=58kg-69kg(BMI 25.1-29.9)
Obese=70kg and above(30.3)
Current: Obese=73.5kg(BMI 31.2)
Underweight=42kg(18.2)
At least=43kg(BMI=18.5)
Lean=44kg(BMI 19)
Ideal=45kg(BMI 19.5)

Obese=70kg and above(30.3)

Pat on the back(my back lah, who else). I can finally fit into my old jeans, the ones that I wear before pregnancy. Yippie! Alhamdulillah is what I must say. With my ideal weight at 48kgs, I still have 22kgs to go.
I haven't done weight training yet. So this year it's running all the way. It still helps a lot. Especially when I feel sluggish, after a 20 minute run(which I try on various speed) I feel very fresh! I wish I was rajin enough to do it everyday, dammit.
My Omega Soy supplement is still there. Yeah, I haven't finished it yet cause it doesn't taste as good. I'm going to try Herbalife next. I need to lose that much weight fast. I don't know if I can make it and slim down during Raya but whatever it is, I must do something drastic. I'm gonna meet my old buddies from school and they still look hot as ever... except me :P
As for my eating habit, so far so good but I still can't resist on drinking a couple of hot sweet Milo everyday! The sugar withdrawal is so damn hard! It's harder to quit drinking sugar than to quit smoking. I've tried to quit smoking for 2 or 3 years and succeed until now. Alhamdulillah.
Lastly, I hope that in days to come, I'll be able to fit in more of my jeans that I thought I couldn't fit forever.
