24th December 2011‏

Weight: No
BMI: Scales
 
Dinner parties once a day really do kill :// But I've found myself becoming more and more like a vegetarian. A few days ago a saw a chicken being brutally tied up and it sounded as if it was in so much pain. I've always been an avid animal lover and after that I've eaten a lot less meat than I normally would have. The only problem is that my relatives are all meat lovers and shove it all on my plate even if I protest and if I don't eat at least most of the portion they've given me, the whole table of about 15 other blooday people start talking about me :// One thing that also really irks me during these dinner parties is that everyone is now talking about their weight. And how most of the women force themselves to stop eating after the starter (saying, I'm on a diet, and binge 20 minutes later =.=) which makes me really self-conscious cause I don't eat once someone has finished. And in more dinner parties than I can count, the weight of me and my sister is compared. My sister has a kidney/gut problem which means that any foods/supplements she eats/processes she only gets around half the nutrients and also half the calories. We weigh the same and I'm an inch taller than her even though she's 11 years older than me. She has a skinny frame but this constant talk of food and weight than eating the actual food. Sigh.

Because Blogger (and Facebook and YouTube AND time-travelling :() has been banned over here in China I thought I'd just do a few, send them to my e-mail and just post them up later so none of you guys feel too deprived ;) We don't have a set of scales here so I can't weigh myself here either :L China's been alright so far, I'm actually eating a lot less than I thought I would and I don't eat half as much meat either :) How awesome if I lose weight as well *-* I've only been doing about 20 minutes of exercise every two days unfortunately...it is quite hard to get motivated when you're in a freezing 0* degrees room :S I'll try doing 20 minutes a day and then gradually increasing soon.

Song of the Day: 
Home for the Holidays by Emmy the Great
Because YouTube is banned here, it's just one of those songs I've got on repeat on my iPhone :)
