I have been swimming quite often nowadays. Ok - I won't call swimming 10 laps each time a real work out but still, I have been swimming. And I just went for an East Coast cycling trip with Chick and Sis today. We resisted the temptation to indulge in hot fudge sundaes and fries after our so-called work out. BUT by dinner time, Sis and I could not hold it any longer. We ordered the greasy chicken rice instead of the fishball noodle we were supposed to have. And erm, Mr. Jang bought 2 bags of potato chips for us after dinner. We started eating them once we got home, and tried to compensate for it by eating fruits at the same time.
Erm... I'm wondering now if all these exercises are making us fatter instead of healthier, cos we now have a justification to eat all the junk?!
Mr. Jang and I said that we would aim towards shedding 2 kg each by the end of the month. Apr 30 is fast approaching, and I'm quite sure I'm nowhere near the target. Ok - I'm definitely not gaining any weight, but am definitely no losing any either. Plus, I have no perseverance nor stamina. Mr. Jang can run a longer distance and swim more laps than me, while I will stop at the slightest sign of breathlessness.
Sigh. I better bring back that sports girl in me quickly if I really want to look fit.

Tell me about it. Everything that is eaten SHOWS UP the day after. Talk about a rapidly declining metabolic rate, and the realization that we're no longer young and invincible...
Deb, we are still young, we are still young!!! Just that we try to act mature for the sake of work... haha.. comforting myself...
