boring day. stuck nearly 90% of the time at home. didn't exactly sleep last night too. fricken stayed awake till dusk dawn and daylight.
played DotA and Marvel Tower Defense with keith and louis in the afternoon. -.- keith, you sarx0rz. xD just kidding.
went to the kopitiam near block 163, which was just across plaza, to have dinner with wei qing and hong ping.
at first we ordered a $10 sambal bbq stingray, sambal kang kong and sotong (both of which i didnt really worry about the price). the stingray was like, damn nice la. so much chilli and so much flesh compared to those sold in other places. i was so hungry i ordered a 2nd plate. hong ping had no money left and stole the stingray from me and qing for i dont know how many times. even though lardo would say it was the last piece, he still continued. greedy bastard. LOL
but.. once i reached home. ijust thought of something.
I FORGOT TO TAKE PICTURE OF THE PLACE AND THE FOOD!!! AAAARGH!
nvm. i swear on my stomach that i will return to that place and take pictures for you guys so if ya feel like it you can go down there and try the food!
alright, that's pretty much all for tonight folks.
Cheers.

you were born to be able to make a choice.
stop pushing the responsibility to someone else.
stop giving yourself an excuse to stray away from responsibilities
stop taking the things you have for granted.
there are people who have worked hard or possibly even beyond their own limits
just to give you the ability to choose.
so stop pushing the blame to someone or something else so you can escape from your responsibilities in life.
do that, and you will give people the wrong idea and impression.
time to wake up, don't you think?

how do we know how much we need to eat daily? well.... first, you need to know your Basal Metabolism Rate (BMR).
it basically means the number of calories your body would burn in a day if you never participate in any activities, staying awake for 16 hours and sleeping for 8. your body needs energy to perform essential functions, and 60-70% of your daily caloric output is drawn for these functions
There's a formula for the men, and one for the ladies. here goes.
For the guys
67 + (13.728*weight in kg) + (508*height in metres) - (6.9*age) = BMR
For the ladies
661 + (9.636*weight in kg) + (175.2*height in metres) - (4.7*age) = BMR
ok. so you know your BMR now. good. so lets add on another factor that affects your metabolism.
ACTIVITY LEVEL!!!! this is where we seperate the crazy ones and the lazy piggies.
Activity multipliers.
Light, everyday activities - 1.3
Moderate (2 to 3 exercise sessions a week) - 1.4
Active (4 to 5) - 1.6
Extremely active (6 to 7?! HOLY SHI-) - 1.8
personally, i'm between moderate to active, so....
67 + (13.728*66.0) + (508*1.675) - (6.9*16.5) = 1710.1
adding the multiplier....
1710.1*1.5 = 2565.1calories burnt daily.
this means that i can only consume this much in calories if i want to maintain my weight. anymore would only be stored as PHAT. yes people, so be very careful of the stuff you eat.
want to lose weight? here's a few lil things that i will leave behind
1 kg of fat is essentially equals to nearly 7700 calories.
so that means... if i want to lose 4kgs, i have to burn away 7700*4 = 30800 calories (yeah, that's hell'lot)
however, let's not be crazy and do it all in one day, in fact, let's do it 0.5kg a week.
calories to lose per week = 3850
calories to lose per day = 3850/7 = 550
this means that if i wish to lose 0.5kg a week, i have to consume 550 calories less than the amount i burn a day.
in conclusion, the ideal amount that i would consume to lose 0.5kg a week constantly would be
2565.1 - 550 = 2010.1 calories a day. <- THIS APPLIES ONLY IF I MAINTAIN MY ACTIVITY LEVEL
the key to losing weight, is not to starve. if you consume less than 1000 calories (less than 2 basic meals) a day, your body will starve and it will automatically attack your lean muscle, which is the main source of your calorie intake. you don't want that to happen now do you? so... CONTROL THE AMOUNT YOU EAT INSTEAD OF GOING ON A DIET PEOPLE!!!
