Over the last two months, I have proved to myself, that if I take one day off from training, I can put on 4 to 5 kg in weight, which takes a week of VERY hard training to take off!!
My diet has consisted of vegetables, steamed rice and lots of water (6 – 7 litres a day) I have not had cheese, bread or any other naughty foods for two months, you could say, without realising, I have taken on a vegan diet, although the very odd occasion I will drink milk and when visiting the Gurdwara have tea. Who can refuse Indian tea!?
Before coming out to Bangkok my eating habits were terrible, eating lots of bread, cheese, fried foods, sugary foods and other naughty goodies. After every meal I had to be close to the restroom, 'just in case I needed to go' which more often then not I had to visit a few times. In a day I had endless restroom visits, my stools were never solid!
I have felt and noticed my health improving so much, after eating I can comfortably go for a walk without worrying 'if' I need the restroom, in fact now I only visit the restroom once a day and my stools are solid, you could say they are picture perfect…..do not worry, there will be no pictures of them!
Believe me when I say the change has not been easy, for example after training, when I head back to the apartment, I take the lift to the 14th floor, there is a television in the lift and I am sure they know when I enter because all of a sudden there is an advertisement for pizza!! Have you noticed how everything looks so tasty when you are hungry?!
My weight has dropped to 82.2kg I need to keep up the Muay Thai and eating habits as my target weight is still 63kg…..
These delightful goodies are now a thing of the past!
Why are you insisting on the target weight of 63kg if you are healthier now, you feel healthier, you eat healthier and you have healthier habits? What’s up with that target weight? Is it a problem if you don’t reach it? Are there pants from your 17 year old cousin that you want to be able to wear or something? I weight 70kg. We are the same height. So I could lose some weight, too. But if you were to weight 63kg, you would look slightly sick…
Two years ago I went down to 70kg, this is before we were aware of the lump. I would just like to beat that! Also, yes I have clothes which are very tight for me and it would save me a fortune if I can fit into them!
Healthier habits are so important, and I am glad you were able to prove that to yourself!
So true!
