1250 characters down.

And that's all that really matters right now.

One week...

And 1.5kg down. I've now hit the weight loss rhythm I had set out for at about 3lb~ a week (which is still healthy!), so I think I'll be sticking with the current plan.

Best thing about this diet is it doesn't feel like a diet at all. Everything else had left me with death hunger and general lethargy, but this seems to be working out. All I did was lower my daily caloric intake from about 2100~ cals a day to about 1800~ cals (by substituting one meal a day for 2 soyjoy bars), replacing soda and sugary drinks with green tea (it burns cals I tells ya), and doing moderate cycling for 40 mins a day (while watching doramas) and an intense 2 hour workout session on Saturdays (club sport, so I'm doing something I love anyway).

Things have been on the up and up so far, currently 73.6 kgs, and should I lose another 1.5kg in the coming week, I'll hit my Wii Fit target weight and finally be in the 'healthy' BMI range, whoo.

Everyone is telling me I look different, but I haven't really noticed any changes yet.

The moment when I realized my diet may be getting out of hand...

... was the moment I found myself frantically looking up the caloric content of a grape before accepting a few of them from the office lady (2-3 calories btw, depending on size, of course).

BUT! But, I've gone down 3 kgs since Sapporo, so things are working, despite the craziness of it all.
