It is a Sunday. Nothing much. Just had a very early breakfast of coffee and wheat bun before I decided to sleep. My routine is like this: it’s either I have a very early breakfast or I don’t have breakfast at all. The only meal of the day I get to eat on time is dinner. And the food item that can be considered a staple for me is coffee. I may pass up on rice but I gotta have my coffee. I don’t care if it is brewed, instant, black, or loaded as long as it has a healthy dose of caffeine in it.

I believe I just encountered one major obstacle tonight. I realized it is very difficult to keep track of food portions when dining out with a group. I mean, I find it easy to eat by myself or with my boyfriend be conscious of every morsel after morsel of food that enters my mouth. But if you are dining with a group of people, you tend to forget your food servings as you try to keep up with the conversations. Get-togethers can be a dieter’s pothole so I should learn to change the way I eat when I am with a group. Tsk, tsk.
I got so hungry early this morning that I just had to eat something. I had to choose between ripe papaya and white bread (hmmm…I wonder where did the whole wheat buns go) and naturally, I chose the fruit. One good thing about where I live is that we never run out of papaya. My whole family loves to have papaya during breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
Somehow, I think today’s progress is okay albeit I ate lots of mints the whole day. Also, we now have brown rice at home (we couldn’t find any last month) so I am less likely to go overboard on rice which is, by the way, one of my weaknesses.

Oh no, this is not a very good start. I’m supposed to start this weight loss blog with so much optismism but I just had to start this nth attempt at weight loss by pigging out on sweet.
Gad, why did I have to eat all those sweets? I say I could’ve done without the durian tart because it had lots of condensed milk and sugar in it but it was so delicious I just couldn’t pass it up.
I also had lots of iced tea. Drat, why can’t I just settle for plain water? Water is healthier and guilt-free.
