I don't hate food. -__-

I don't hate food. Full stop.

-__-

Yea I know I'm back to my prepregnant weight (and lesser) in, like, no time. 

Bravo *clap clap*

Just because you are fat and eat like a pig, doesn't mean that everyone else who is not fat, hates food. 

Perhaps if you eat healthier, you can lose the weight too. -_-

Live to eat. Or eat to live. Up to you.

How I lose my baby fats so fast:

1) Nursing. Breastfeeding. It's awesome. Not only does the bonding with baby make you feel even more wonderful, it also helps you burn an extra 500 calories a day. 

Let me help you calculate:

Each oz of breastmilk you produce = 20 calories burned

1oz = 30ml

(Feels like I'm teaching maths class. Haha)

5-6oz per session, 5 EBM sessions a day 

= 500-600 calories burned

= a good 6-8km run 

= one larger-than-life size Starbucks chocolate chip muffin

= one gourmet turkey sandwich, extra cheese

This is how I can eat all I want and still shed the extra baby fats. Excellent right. 

So if you are able to produce more than what I do a day, be it double or triple that... well, that means while you are stuffing up on nasi lemak with ayam masak merah or dining a cheesy pasta carbonara or indulging that red velvet slice of cake, you are ACTUALLY burning calories!!! Producing breast milk, that is.

How twisted is that!!! Wtf right.

2) Take care of your baby on your own. Try that. No help. Just you. On top of that, complete your household chores on your own and run errrands also. On your own. The long-lasting exhaustion puts any body into starvation mode all day. It's like intensive gym session. All day long. So, try cleaning and brushing and vacuuming and scrubbing and ironing and moving around the house and maybe you will lose some of your stubborn fats. 

I tengah bersemangat packing and boxing my stuff back in batches. No time no time. So with all the carryings, I'm burning even more calories. I'm always hungry, really. 

*not trying to brag*

*maybe just a little*

3) I stay on the fifth floor in the hospital quarters. Yes. Fifth floor, no lift. The exercise I do every morning, afternoon and evening - carrying Baby Maya up&down and her bags and my own work bag and pump bag. I literally stiffle a cry if I forget anything because I have to climb all the way up again, with Baby Maya as I can't leave her alone in the car. I would think twice coming down if it is just throwing the garbage or buying dinner. 

p/s: Baby Maya is not light now ok.

See her Michelin muscles! LOLOLOL!

"I do exercise too!"

"Hey...don't go telling the world that I'm gaining!"

"Ya, I know. Time for shopping, mummy. This PJ is small!"

"Mum, don't take so close-up! You are like blowing up my face!"

"Bluekbluek! I'm chubby and I'm cute!"

Mummy ❤ you!!! *bearhugs*

I despise the stairs but at the same time, I'm loving my thighs. And rock ass. Pretty Awesome. 

4) I eat in moderation. YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT. You eat junk, you become garbage. You eat fat, you become fat la. And because Baby Maya 'eats' whatever I eat, I don't eat junk alot. I do indulge (I AM still the chocolate monster), but not everyday.

5) Opt for a healthier choice. Vege vege vege. Can't believe it took a long 24years to convince me that vege is actually crunchily tasty. Credits to Miss Sunshine and her rice-cooker cooked cabbage+carrot+onion. Drink plenty of water and detoxify. Choose iced honey lemon or warm lime tea instead of empty calory high sugar iced bandung or iced milo dinasour. I eat fish alot. 2-3times a week. For the DHA or EFA or whatever "brain food" I'm hoping to supply Baby Maya. Who doesn't know I am a sucker for salmon sashimi and sushi? LOL!

Just like yesterday: Lunch with sweet & sour fish and stirfry baby kailan with iced lemon tea.

Spicy black sauce fish courtesy of Nanny for dinner. Looks can be deceiving because this is freaking mind-blowing yummy!!!

I used to crash diet during my teenage years but my weight always bounced back then. That wasn't healthy. I realised, somehow I have developed higher metabolism since Cold Moscow. Lucky me. Ever since then, I don't gain weight fast. Perhaps that gruesome -20 and -30 degree winter trained and whipped me into shape. If I decided I want to lose weight, skipping one or two meals will do marvelous for me. It has become easier for me. No, not thyroid. 

And this is a testimony to all women out there --> If you are one of those (like me previously) who is afraid of pregnancy because you might 'lose' your figure, well, worry not!!!! You can lose the baby fats. Heck! Not just preggie fats, it is any fatty fats, if you put your mind to it. I've gained 15kg but lost more than that. 

*lalalalallala*

Gambateh!!!

I don't particularly love to eat. It is not a hobby to me. -_-

I eat when I'm hungry. I eat when I desire to. I eat as I wish when I want/need to. I don't gobble. 

And I certainly don't hate food. Wtf.
