My biggest problem ever. Will probably always be but what can you do when you love food? If you didn’t get it, that was a pointer to my last posting about the nutrilett-experiment which went – surprisingly enough – quite well. It was totally manageable when you drank water all the time. One thing which helped me to go through this crazy-ass thing was a regular eating schedule because of the breaks at work. You eat in regular intervals and since you are working, you don’t really get chances to ruin your diet because there just isn’t any food in sight. In total I lost about 3-4kg during 10 days from which 1,5-2kg was probably just liquids which I of course gained back when I sifted back to proper food.
Of course the results weren’t mind-blowing (but I did lose some!) but I have learned a thing or two from this. For one, my plate-sizes are enormous. Two, I eat a ton of carbs that I get from bread, potatoes, rice, burger buns, etc,. And three? I can actually go through something like this once I put my mind into it.
So now – a few kilos lighter and a few ideas wiser – I’m on the right road. I haven’t weighted this little since high school and it feels good, man.
As you can probably guess from the picture, I’ve been busy. First of all, my computer broke down. Crashed and burned. Not quite literally of course but it did get jammed real bad and for a moment I thought I would lose all my files and photos. Thank god my usual computer-fixer is a fucking miracle worker. He worked some computer magic and now I have my baby back and I can finally update my blog.
So, my computer broke and before I could get it fixed my holiday in Spain started (Did you see the photo? Palm trees! Palm trees!!). It. Was. Awesome. Never been so tan before. The weather was awesome, people were smiling, and I drank too many glasses of sangria to count. But the sand and sunscreen, ugh! Everywhere. Every nook and corner – whether it be bed-clothes, your clothes or your skin – it was covered in those. It was nice to get back home and take a proper shower.
But apart from doing absolutely nothing which has been lovely as well, I have actually accomplished something with my exchange! I did a thing! Olé!
So I finally bought the airline tickets which has been a major pain in my ass since April. First I didn’t buy them because I was afraid of getting them on the wrong day which, with me being such an airhead, was a good idea since I got the month wrong from the beginning. Then my computer broke down and I went to Spain. Then Finnair informed that tickets to Japan bought after 1.7.2016 would allow you to bring two suitcases instead of one, so I had to wait for that. But now I have them and-.. and-.. holy fuck, I’m actually going, aren’t I?
I will live alone in Japan. Alone. For a whole year. Shit. Who made this decision?
Oh yeah. I did.
