9-6 job is not an excuse not to b fit as i'm sure many ppl here like me are also working out in gym after work and watch the diet.
to get a better looking abs or generally to lose body fats, there is no way but to watch out for u eat everyday.
diet is equally important as exercise. based on ur diet, u have carbs loaded food. noodles, rice, bread, pau are sources of it.
carbs is important to our body bcoz it is the primary source of energy to our body. but bcoz u hardly use any energy (assuming ur job is an office job and u hardly workout), these sources instead of being burned for energy is converted into fat and stored away for future use.
generally, please do not skip meals too. increase ur food intake to 5 meals a day. but i'm not asking u to eat heavy for the 5 meals. eat moderate or light for each meal. main point is not to give ur stomach/body anytime to rest, let it keep burning food. i notice when i change to 5 meals a day, i no longer feel sleepy in office very easily.
good job sarah, keep up the good work! more importantly dont b too overwhelmed by the result and start to lose the concentration.
about the farting part, i had the problem when i had my weight gainer. pretty nasty, those silent but deadly farts.
i guess for ur fren, the source of it would b the meat. protein food/supplement always does the damage. don't mind those farts if u get to ur goal, i think!
Thanks Janson! I'm aiming to lose more!!! Anyway, now is thinking what kind of workout will be good to firm up my body, I have very big thighs now and flabby arms, as for my waist is getting smaller as I expected, butt also firming up but the thighs seriously a headache issue for me

I was thinking for dumbell to do some biceps exercises, as for jogging and running, I can't do it at the moment as I'm recovering from my DVT at the moment. Anyway, hopefully soon all that stupid fat will go away
I guess that farts should be ending in a while right? I think I also have the same problem now but not that much yet. Now I don't think I can really take food from outside as for weekdays, all 5 meals I prepare by myself, and once in a while for weekend too. Furthermore I strictly only boil or steam or sometimes grill (once every two weeks) without oil, even with oil also very minimal
