Alright guys, I'm a newbie to this gym thingy. I joined in January but only started being active early August, because prior to that I was suffering from Anemia and whenever I do workout, I get MAJOR headaches and chest pain
. Anyway I've gotten that under control and my hemoglobin n RBC is back to normal level
and now I'm back to my goal of achieving 50kg before the end of this year.
The Anemia was caused by PCOS (google it up
) and because of insulin intolerance due to PCOS, it's a very very very steep uphill climb for me to be able to lower my BFC
. I've been on low carb diet for almost 8 months now and what it did was to maintain my weight @ 60kg; am happy enough because its VERY EASY for me to gain fat..haihs
I've been keeping track of my food intake in my food journal but I need feedbacks in order to improve whatever I'm doing right now
. @ the gym, I "subscribed"
to a PT because I wanted a guardian angel at the gym who can help me achieve my goal
I'll start posting tomorrow so here are my stats in early August :
Height : 155cm
Weight : 60.3kg
BFC : 39.4%
BMI : 25.1 (borderline overweight)
TBW : 27.3kg (~45%)
Waist : 32"
Target
--------
- before my 24th birthday - 27th Dec 2006
- 50kg or 24% BFC (whichever comes first
)
TQ for reading

Commentaries
-The tshirt was fitted last time. Jeans was ngam ngam ho. Now both very loose dy
- Face is still round. But I know the double chin will be the last one to go so I'm fine with it
- Check out my arms
Arm before (last week) and after (today)
last week biceps barely visible hor. triceps still got lots of fat
today got teeny tiny biceps, triceps less fat
Personal ReflectionsThings that are different now :
- my tummy has shrunk drastically
- my quads are getting uglier (more muscular) but I'm lovin it!
- i can squat, deadlift, bench (eventho not so heavy yet)
- i can run, i used to not be able to last time
- i can ALMOST do a full pushup. watch out boys
- bf% decreased by a teeny tiny amount. i dont think i care about it as long as i look better in the mirror
- oo biceps *poke* *poke*
Things I regretted :
- falling off the bandwagon early October - early December 2006 (hiatus from gym)
- not tackling the insulin resistance problem earlier
- didnt take any proper 'before' pics
- super proper diet only started barely 3 weeks ago
- I was fatter earlier this month compared to September when I first started the journal
Things I'm happy about :
- loose jeans (new clothes after this? aiyo no money dy. bought whey + supplements)
- fitness gadgets (scale, watch, ipod)
- girl muscles
- doing things that I thought I'd never be able to do in my whole lifetime - doing full bridge, run more than 10 minutes, pushups on knees, proper situps
- BETTER FOOD! and I get to eat 6x a day
Best thing that happened so far:
- BF looked at me and said, "dear, you almost look like the girl i fell in love with 8 years ago"
. when I first knew him 8 years ago i was @ 50kg. Ballooned after couple for 2 years. He always call me 'tembam' but hv never intended/threatened to leave me because of it.
walao i feel so touching ...
