Lunar New Year celebration earlier this year It was a time of the year when I was exposed to a diversity of delicious food More remarkably, the traditional food of my country is primarily made up of rice and flour, which easily causes obesity Actually, I was only a bit overweight according to my country’s obesity standard of slim and petite girls But, my situation got worse after I overly enjoyed some tasty food continuously over the two weeks of the festival Therefore, I had the determination to lose kg in the next month, which was not an easy task for myself To achieve my goal on time, I had done some research and approached different methods I remember the most important one was doing fasting, which was horribly painful for a sweet tooth who usually craves for snacks like me However, I could only eat one main meal per day and allow myself to have just one apple or banana if I couldn’t stand the hunger Plus, my sleeping time was only to hours a day because the more I was awake, the more energy I would consume Also, I maintained to physical exercises for 20 to 30 minutes every day But to be honest, I felt so tired sometimes that I had a cheat meal or skipped the exercise for a day It was extremely tough during the process Although I only lost 2.5 kg afterwards, I could still feel a sense of achievement eventually I actually didn’t truly believe that I would make it at the
