So Current Measurements
Bust: 38
Waist: 33
Hips: 41
Weird, but my waist measurement is so big right now, I suppose I need to do a lot more ab work. Anyway, so given the state of diet food in Korea, portion control is the only way I reckon i can lose the weight. So here are some new facets of my diet.
Facet 1: In the morning, eat only half a roll and save the rest for an afternoon snack. Or eat something else small for breakfast since I know I’ll get another snack between 9:30 and 10.
Facet 2: Eat dinner between 5 and 6 and don’t eat anything more for the night, maybe some herbal tea, but that’s it.
Facet 3: For every book I read, I must do some sort of exercise video first and the videos are cumulative, so if I do 2 one day, that means I can read 2 books.
Facet 4: Eat only small amounts of food for lunch, nothing excessive.
Facet 5: No buying Pepero (kinda like Pocky) since I can’t be trusted with it in the house.
Facet 6: For dinner, get a sub with no cheese and eat only half the quantity of chips in a bag and save the rest for the next day. This will save money and calories. For pizza, buy only one slice and eat that. Hmm and one of these days I am seriously gonna try other that food they sell at those street vendors. It smells really good. There’s one that smells like pancakes and looks like it to.
So rewards, I like rewards a lot.
Reward #1: Every exercise video of at least 20 minutes duration entitles me to read one book.
Reward #2: Trip to Dongdaemon to buy some shoes and clothes when I get down to a size 10. Those measurements are B37, W29, H40. I’m actually close with my bust and hips, it’s just my waist thats big. In Dongdaemon I will buy a new pair of exercise pants, 1 pair of work style pants, 1 pair of new flats or small heals, and 1 jean skirt.
Reward #3: Trip back to Dongdaemon for shoes and clothes when I get down to a size 8. Those measurements are B36, W28, H38. For those measurments I get a dress, a pair of jeans, a fashion shirt, and another pair of shoes.
Reward #4 Final measurements of a size 6 because I surely would never want to be smaller than that. Those measurements are B35, W27, H37. For that my reward will be a trip to Jeju for the weekend if I’m still in Korea. So I need to lose 3 inches from my bust, 6 inches from my waist, and 4 inches from my hips to get to my goal size. For this trip, I will need some new clothes that will be determined at the time.
So wish me, luck, I will update my measurements every Monday to keep ya’ll informed, but an sort of busy with other things like living in a foreign coutry so it may take awhile.
