Diary of a Fat Kid

I'm N and I have been battling body image issues since I was a young girl. I finally took control of my life at 28 by following a clean diet. Two years on and some 20kg lighter, I still struggle between eating right and munching whatever I like. This is my food journal to keep track of what goes into my body and my daily activity. I run occasionally.

How's everyone doing? I haven't been checking in for awhile now, sorry about that. I also have been eating a lot of junk and because of that, my weight is steadily increasing. 😭. I'm actually 22 weeks pregnant and the last time I weighed myself (about two weeks ago), my weight was 63kg. I'm sure I'm already 65kg by now. 😭😭😭. Anyway, this is Thai basil fried rice that I made earlier for the family. Thought I'd post something to keep this page somewhat active. Hehe. Take care everyone. #stayfit #stayhealthy #healthy #fooddiary #malaysia #selangor #foodie #healthyfood #fitfood #igfit #fit #fitbody #easydiet #healthydiet #ezdiet #cheapdiet #fitmalaysia #dietmadeeasy #protein #getfit #gethealthy #eathealthy #fitspiration #fitblr #fitmom #fitnessjourney #fitfam #fitspo #fitnessmotivation #fitnessfood

My little girl has been admitted to ICU for asthma attack. She's doing better now, Alhamdulillah. Everything happened so fast, I'm still trying to digest what just happened. Talk about digest, I'm having my daughter's healthy pasta. It comes with a side of creamy fish fillet and grilled vege. The grilled vege is so good! I'm going to replicate this when we're discharged. 😊 #stayfit #stayhealthy #healthy #fooddiary #malaysia #selangor #foodie #healthyfood #fitfood #igfit #fit #fitbody #easydiet #healthydiet #ezdiet #cheapdiet #fitmalaysia #dietmadeeasy #protein #getfit #gethealthy #eathealthy #fitspiration #fitblr #fitmom #fitnessjourney #fitfam #fitspo #fitnessmotivation #fitnessfood

The raya aftermath: I gained almost 2kg and now, I'm shaking my head. I weighed myself when I went to see my gynae for my 17-week pregnancy check-up yesterday. I wouldn't say I was surprised but thinking going back to 86kg is possible freaked me out. Serve me right for going crazy on the cookies and ketupat. Haha. So today I decided to cut a little bit of sugar from my diet. Also, I had my favourite - salmon steak with grilled sweet corn kernels - for lunch (120716). I haven't had salmon for awhile now, the fish is just too expensive these days. I'm always looking out for the best deal and right now, Tesco has the cheapest offer (RM24.90/kg) although I'd gotten a better deal before. On a side note, although I'm still experiencing slight bleeding, my baby is healthy and well, Alhamdulillah. We still don't know the gender yet, he/she kept his/her legs crossed the whole time during the scan. Whatever the gender may be, I know we'll be happy and grateful, especially me. 😊 #stayfit #stayhealthy #healthy #fooddiary #malaysia #selangor #foodie #healthyfood #fitfood #igfit #fit #fitbody #easydiet #healthydiet #ezdiet #cheapdiet #fitmalaysia #dietmadeeasy #protein #getfit #gethealthy #eathealthy #fitspiration #fitblr #fitmom #fitnessjourney #fitfam #fitspo #fitnessmotivation #fitnessfood

Sorry for the lack of updates, I've been sooo lazy. Just entered my second trimester, yay! My morning sickness is subsiding, thank God. Also, I haven't been weighing my because I is scared. I'm pretty sure I'm 60kg+ now. 😰. Anyway, having sushi for lunch today (040716). It's kani mayo, salmon mentai and avocado with crabstick roll. #stayfit #stayhealthy #healthy #fooddiary #malaysia #selangor #foodie #healthyfood #fitfood #igfit #fit #fitbody #easydiet #healthydiet #ezdiet #cheapdiet #fitmalaysia #dietmadeeasy #protein #getfit #gethealthy #eathealthy #fitspiration #fitblr #fitmom #fitnessjourney #fitfam #fitspo #fitnessmotivation #fitnessfood

Omg, I weighed myself and found that I gained about 200g-400g! It has started. That's it, no more sugar except fruits. It doesn't help that I have a get together to attend for buka puasa today. 😰😭 #stayfit #stayhealthy #healthy #fooddiary #malaysia #selangor #foodie #healthyfood #fitfood #igfit #fit #fitbody #easydiet #healthydiet #ezdiet #cheapdiet #fitmalaysia #dietmadeeasy #protein #getfit #gethealthy #eathealthy #fitspiration #fitblr #fitmom #fitnessjourney #fitfam #fitspo #fitnessmotivation #fitnessfood

Remember the prawn and crabstick salad I bought? I made sandwiches with the salad for lunch today (230616). Honestly, I didn't quite like the taste. I finished my sandwiches but not the salad. The amount of mayonnaise in there is just crazy and I feel quite sick right now, I'm getting ready to puke. 😭. By the way, I'm 59kg now. #stayfit #stayhealthy #healthy #fooddiary #malaysia #selangor #foodie #healthyfood #fitfood #igfit #fit #fitbody #easydiet #healthydiet #ezdiet #cheapdiet #fitmalaysia #dietmadeeasy #protein #getfit #gethealthy #eathealthy #fitspiration #fitblr #fitmom #fitnessjourney #fitfam #fitspo #fitnessmotivation #fitnessfood

My lunch today (220616): a pack of rainbow pasta salad. I also brought prawn and crabstick salad to office since I was undecided on what to have for lunch. But I decided to go with the pasta instead. The fat kid in me suggested I tried some of the prawn and crabstick salad. Maybe I'll try some when I get hungry in the evening or something but I don't plan to finish them all because it's a lot and being pregnant does not give me the pass to be ignorant of what goes into my body. Although they were marked "healthy" at this Japanese section in Aeon, I highly doubt so. I have major trust issues when it comes to buying outside food that are marketed as healthy but in truth, they're actually junk food in disguise. I need to know what exactly goes into the dish like how much of salt, seasoning, fat etc. I know, I sound like a difficult person. I'm not, it's just that I used to weigh 86kg. I don't ever want to go back there. Haha.

Anyway, verdict on the pasta? LOVE IT although I'd like it better if there wasn't too much mayonaise. I plan to make sandwiches with the prawn and crabstick salad when I go home.

Good day, everyone!

This was supposed to be my lunch today, I made oatmeal porridge with edamame and carrots. The thing that I really puts me off is the sesame oil, I think baby no like it. I really feel like throwing up when I tried half a spoonful. So this morning when I came to office, the first thing I did was find someone who can finish it for me. Ahaha. #stayfit #stayhealthy #healthy #fooddiary #malaysia #selangor #foodie #healthyfood #fitfood #igfit #fit #fitbody #easydiet #healthydiet #ezdiet #cheapdiet #fitmalaysia #dietmadeeasy #protein #getfit #gethealthy #eathealthy #fitspiration #fitblr #fitmom #fitnessjourney #fitfam #fitspo #fitnessmotivation #fitnessfood

This is part of my lunch today (200616). It's Starbuck's cranberry chicken sandwiches, my favourite! But I don't really buy it because RM8 for sandwiches? Nope. The only reason why I bought it is because my morning sickness is quite bad and I really couldn't stomach what I prepared. I'll show you guys what I cooked in a bit. So now I'm munching tostada chips with salsa which I got from Chili's and also this. Bazir betul. Zzz. #stayfit #stayhealthy #healthy #fooddiary #malaysia #selangor #foodie #healthyfood #fitfood #igfit #fit #fitbody #easydiet #healthydiet #ezdiet #cheapdiet #fitmalaysia #dietmadeeasy #protein #getfit #gethealthy #eathealthy #fitspiration #fitblr #fitmom #fitnessjourney #fitfam #fitspo #fitnessmotivation #fitnessfood

I woke up today feeling really groggy and since I was advised not to fast, I ate three Oreo cookies (damn those cookies are good!) before making this wrap. It's actually homemade beef sausage wrap with lettuce, a teaspoon of roasted sesame dressing and a slice of cheese. I recently bought two packs of homemade sausages from a really lovely lady in Taman Tun, love the taste and texture but not a fan of the fat content because the ratio is like 3:1. I memang tak boleh telan sangat lemak-lemak daging, tak lalu. That's why dish ni pun makan barely half. My husband on the other hand loves the sausages, I can really see why despite not liking the fat. So I'm going to repeat the order, I can see them being a staple at our house. But at the same time, I'm going to try making my own. Problem is finding the casings. 😅 #stayfit #stayhealthy #healthy #fooddiary #malaysia #selangor #foodie #healthyfood #fitfood #igfit #fit #fitbody #easydiet #healthydiet #ezdiet #cheapdiet #fitmalaysia #dietmadeeasy #protein #getfit #gethealthy #eathealthy #fitspiration #fitblr #fitmom #fitnessjourney #fitfam #fitspo #fitnessmotivation #fitnessfood

It's chocolate granola and full cream milk! Chilling my milk now. I'm quite excited to eat my snack in a couple of hours. As you can see, I'm not following a strict clean, sugar free diet at the moment because it's not easy for me to keep my food down so I thought I should be a little "lenient" with myself. Hehe. Regardless, I will still post whatever I eat here. Just to keep track of what I goes into my body and stuff. #stayfit #stayhealthy #healthy #fooddiary #malaysia #selangor #foodie #healthyfood #fitfood #igfit #fit #fitbody #easydiet #healthydiet #ezdiet #cheapdiet #fitmalaysia #dietmadeeasy #protein #getfit #gethealthy #eathealthy #fitspiration #fitblr #fitmom #fitnessjourney #fitfam #fitspo #fitnessmotivation #fitnessfood

Lunch today (160616) was mushroom soup and garlic wholemeal bread. I didn't eat the cheese though because I didn't really feel like it. I also brought something semi healthy/unhealthy (depends how you want to look at it. Haha) to munch later. I'll show you in a bit. #stayfit #stayhealthy #healthy #fooddiary #malaysia #selangor #foodie #healthyfood #fitfood #igfit #fit #fitbody #easydiet #healthydiet #ezdiet #cheapdiet #fitmalaysia #dietmadeeasy #protein #getfit #gethealthy #eathealthy #fitspiration #fitblr #fitmom #fitnessjourney #fitfam #fitspo #fitnessmotivation #fitnessfood

Yup, replicating the dark chocolate peanut butter cups because I have tons of these babies stashed in fridge. Woot! #stayfit #stayhealthy #healthy #fooddiary #malaysia #selangor #foodie #healthyfood #fitfood #igfit #fit #fitbody #easydiet #healthydiet #ezdiet #cheapdiet #fitmalaysia #dietmadeeasy #protein #getfit #gethealthy #eathealthy #fitspiration #fitblr #fitmom #fitnessjourney #fitfam #fitspo #fitnessmotivation #fitnessfood

I totally forgot to share this. My good friend got me these in the UK. These are chocolate peanut butter cups and they're really good, even better than Reese's if I might say so. I'm a hugeee fan of Reese's but these are just amazing. Love the texture and the taste. My friend can't remember the name of the brand but they come in a pack of 4s. Did I say these are VEGAN, SUGAR-FREE and HEALTHY? I'm going to try to try making these babies soon. Hope I'd feel better when I'm off work. #stayfit #stayhealthy #healthy #fooddiary #malaysia #selangor #foodie #healthyfood #fitfood #igfit #fit #fitbody #easydiet #healthydiet #ezdiet #cheapdiet #fitmalaysia #dietmadeeasy #protein #getfit #gethealthy #eathealthy #fitspiration #fitblr #fitmom #fitnessjourney #fitfam #fitspo #fitnessmotivation #fitnessfood

This was yesterday's lunch, or was it Sunday's? I can't remember but I had my salmon fix after months of craving for it. Paired it with a side of aglio olio and brought it to work. I need to stock up on more salmon, spinach noodles and milk. For today, I had a bottle of multigrain Vsoy (I know, I know. It has tons of sugar) and THREE OATMEAL COOKIES! Hahaha. Anyway, I feel like I'm getting fatter (you don't say). Two colleagues even pointed that out but whenever I weigh myself, it's the same. And I'm also talking about the weighing scale at my gynae's. We're both using digital scales. I'm worried, I know I'm supposed to gain a little but I'm just so traumatised because during my first pregnancy, I gained about 30kg. That's just crazy. #stayfit #stayhealthy #healthy #fooddiary #malaysia #selangor #foodie #healthyfood #fitfood #igfit #fit #fitbody #easydiet #healthydiet #ezdiet #cheapdiet #fitmalaysia #dietmadeeasy #protein #getfit #gethealthy #eathealthy #fitspiration #fitblr #fitmom #fitnessjourney #fitfam #fitspo #fitnessmotivation #fitnessfood

Don't be fooled. I had a stack of cookies for breakfast earlier today. #stayfit #stayhealthy #healthy #fooddiary #malaysia #selangor #foodie #healthyfood #fitfood #igfit #fit #fitbody #easydiet #healthydiet #ezdiet #cheapdiet #fitmalaysia #dietmadeeasy #protein #getfit #gethealthy #eathealthy #fitspiration #fitblr #fitmom #fitnessjourney #fitfam #fitspo #fitnessmotivation #fitnessfood
