Pork belly:

Fatty lamb cuts:




As of today:


UPDate: June 13th 2012, 
very much balanced now. I am 163-164cm in height and my weight is now pretty much balanced at 47+kg. Phew, the shoving food into my stomach phase is a thing of the past now. I believe i have to keep my blood sugar and weight steady and thus, once a week, i eat a fat rich heavy meal, like pork belly meat, lamb/beef cuts with full fats on them. And this keeps me going. On normal days, i eat chicken thigh with fats still left intact, fish on occasion, lean pork, chicken breast meat etc. The key is, i must have meat at least twice a day and the animal fats as well, if not, i'll be yo-yo-ing on my weight and get sleep issues.

Of course, veggies are important too, but to me, meat is now of utmost importance. Veggies do accompany each meal i eat so i won't be deprived of greens and veggie goodness.

Weight-y issues

Of late, i've been plagued by weight management issues.

I am struggling to maintain my weight.

If i eat any less, my weight sloughs off by the kgs. I did not use to have this issue. I am not skinny nor am i "meaty". I will eat my three meals a day plus all the snacks in between to maintain my weight.

If i were to eat one less snack or just have portions reduced, i will lose weight significantly fast, just within a week i can drop 2 kgs.

Previously  i did not have this issue as my weight would be maintained no matter what. If i ate more or if i ate less, my weight would still be around the same.

I'm wondering why i am facing this issue right now. Thank the stars my hair or skin did not suffer. No noticeable hair loss or significant changes in skin issues at the moment.

To maintain my weight, i have to eat significantly full 3 square meals a day and at least three snack times in between. I even have to eat before i go to sleep just so i wouldn't be hungry in the night. Come to think of it, i've been having supper so often lately no wonder my tummy fat is starting to show.

Hopefully this losing-weight-fast phase will balance out soon because i'm having a hard time shoving so much food into my stomach. I'm not the kind that likes to eat a lot. Just enough to feel satisfied. Much prefer a light stomach to a heavy one that makes me sleepy.
Sigh, now i have to stock up on snacks in my drawer and order more side dishes to accompany my main lunch meal. Milo has become my best friend of late and I consume this chocolate drink very frequently with my snacks.
Dinner i have to eat up to two or two-half bowls of rice now and pile on the meat as well.
I would rather go vegetarian as i'm not a meat lover. Perhaps it is the going-vegetarian years i've spent eating veggies that gave me this issue right now.


Praying hard it will balance out soon!~~
