freshman 15....

"The "freshman fifteen" is a term used in the United States and Canada to describe the weight gained by students during their freshman (first) year of study in college or university. The term refers to the often-reported, yet unsubstantiated claim that freshman typically gain fifteen pounds during their first year.

The purported causes of this weight gain are increased alcohol intake and the consumption of fat and carbohydrate-rich cafeteria-style food and fast food in university dormitories. Many dining halls in United States universities are all-you-can-eat style and have copious dessert options. As well, lack of sleep may cause overeating and weight gain, because it lowers the level of leptin. Staff dieticians in US universities and colleges often put up posters urging healthy eating and hold nutrition seminars, with tips on how to avoid weight gain.
OH MY GOD... this is so true!! =(

after avoiding the scary scale for MONTHS.... (the last time i weigh myself was at the gym, 2-3 months ago....)

and while on the way back to my room, my floormate was weighing herself in the middle of the corridor (don't ask me why she did it in the middle of the floor...)

and so, i stand up on the scale....

*the moment of truth*

56 KG!!!

0.0!!!

i was only 50kg when i came.....

and i was never more than 55kg back in malaysia...

and it took me more than 3 months of torturing 'hot babe' regime to get rid of the excess fat.....

and it took me so much self discipline to restrain myself from eating all the delicacies in penang....

and... and....and....

damn it la... i'm going to the gym tomolo.... >_<
