Of all my attempts to lose weight, this year has got to be the year that I was more committed to it, but lately I have been struggling to find the enthusiasm. I am way too lazy to exercise (yes, I blame the rain for it - I know, I should blame myself), and I am seeing myself eating more rice than I should. Bad, Jenny.
Realizing we had a protein binge days before (mom hosted a post-birthday dinner for church org friends and we served pork bbq, lechon manok, and fish & chips), we decided to eat veggies last Saturday dinner. Mom requested the papaya-malunggay dinengdeng, which brother happily cooked. This is one of my favorite ways to cook dinengdeng, but because I had some snacks that afternoon, I psyched myself to go back measuring my food, and since sister needed the measuring cup for her cereal's milk, I decided to just go for 1/2 cup of rice and 1/2 cup of the dinengdeng, plus a piece of fried fish.
Thankfully, it was able to satisfy my tummy. I need to go back on track asap, and I am glad that despite my many pig out moments the past week, I can still happily go back with measuring my food intake.

thanks for visiting my weekend eating entry. i am a foodie too and i understand the downside of it is weight gain. mahirap talaga magtimpi kumain no? although cutting back on rice does make a difference. from 98 pounds, i shot up to as high as 120 pounds (my heaviest ever). i began to reduce my food intake and work out regularly, until i dropped to 112 pounds and plateaud at 110 pounds. i was getting frustrated because i wanted to lose more. then, i cut back to half-cup rice a day, and in a week, i lost 3 pounds. i am now down to 102 pounds. i feel better now because i have a lil bit of lee-way of weight for more of my foodie-scapade! :D
thanks again for visiting my blog and leaving a comment :)
see you around, and tara let's eat ^^
