Low Carb Diet

Just a random post about weight issues.
I think since young, I have always been on the chubby side. 
Maybe not fat fat, but never thin :(
I always blame it on my bone structure,
 (like Eric always laugh and say my bones are thicker than his?!)
But that's not an excuse, isn't it?

Well, I think losing weight has been my "life-long career"
Since secondary school, I have tried everything possible.
Like just eating apples, or just drinking honey water.
But all these efforts proved futile, as I supposed all these crash diets are not gonna work long term.
Moreover, after the crash diets, I felt so pathetic and stressed up that I just went on a binge,which is worst.
So, I just can't be bothered and just eat whatever I want, so my weight went up to almost 64kg in JC1.
My weight then fluctuated between 58kg-61kg throughout my university years. 

Losing weight has never been successful until last year.
I decided to go on a low-carb diet
I still eat my lunch normally but for dinner, I will not eat more than three spoonfuls of rice.
I always ask Mum to cook more side dishes to "distract" me.
And I think it works for me. 
It was hard at first, but with some self discipline, incorporating some exercises(hot yoga is really good)
I managed to reach 53kg. 
Shedding those pounds away really made me feel more energetic and more confident.
I have never loved junk food, so it's not much of a problem.
But, I have ditched all the soft drinks, and settled for my bori-cha ( korean barley tea)
Sometimes, I do have cravings like 歇脚亭's pudding milk tea, etc.
Maybe once or twice a month won't hurt?

I guess human beings are never easily satisfied.
I still think I need to lose more weight.
I want to look good for my wedding shoots at the end of the year^^
