Anyeong Noona

Anyeong! This is the second day of Noona's challenge for MyFitnessPal (MFP) project and apparently she does it better today. Although this is on the assumption that she keyed in the calorie correctly. Hahaha.

 BREAKFAST:

1 SLICE OF LEMON CHIA SEED CAKE (160 KCAL)

If you have been working in Raffles Place area for years, you will know that there is a small food stall at the basement level of One Raffles Place (which was used to be called OUB Centre) selling egg tarts, etc. However, since the building was revamped into One Raffles Place, the yummy egg tart stall moved to Clifford Centre. Inflation may have boosted the price of the cakes and bakeries sold at this stall but nowadays apparently they have embraced different type of cake such as earl grey and lemon chia seed cake. The lemon chia seed cake taste pretty good and it costs SGD 1.50, which Noona feels affordable for CBD area.

LUNCH:

1 MCDONALD'S FILLET-O-FISH (351 KCAL)

8 PIECES OF SUN CHIPS ORIGINAL FLAVOR (70 KCAL)

1 CUP OF GREEN TEA MACCHIATO (96 KCAL)

Noona was so tempted to try out the latest fancy burger introduced by McDonald's which involves crispy buttermilk chicken but they were not available. A friend has told Noona that the latest chicken burger is currently so trending up to the point McD's running out of stock for some of its key ingredients. Huh, apparently this country is not as healthy-holic as Noona has thought. Bummed, Noona ended up buying fillet-o-fish instead which has less than 500kcal (whoa, this is a surprise). Which means a combination of fillet-o-fish burger and green tea macchiato from KOI gives you less than 500kcal in total. Revelation!

DINNER:

1/2 PLATE OF CHEESE DDEOKBBOKI (273 KCAL)

1/2 PLATE OF SEAFOOD PASTA (279 KCAL)

1 CUP OF MATCHA PARFAIT (550 KCAL)

Since it was Saturday, Noona and her friend are in the mood to eat out and they chose to have their dinner at Patbingsoo (which judging from its name, should be famous for its bingsut). But since both of us are not really a fan of bingsut, we ordered the main dishes instead. Surprise surprise, the portion given for both ddeokbokki and seafood pasta are not actually big (although this can be subjective and it is entirely possible that two of us are hungry gluttons). But anyway, assuming our judgement is accurate, we celebrated the weekend by having parfaits from Tsujiri. Cheers to the weekend!

EXERCISE: 

ONE HOUR OF ZUMBA FITNESS (475 KCAL)

13,257 STEPS OF NORMAL SPEED WALKING (407 KCAL)

SUMMARY:

1,200 KCAL GOAL - 1,779 KCAL FOOD + 882 KCAL EXERCISE = 303 KCAL REMAINING

Overall, Noona contributes today's success to two factors: (1) Exercise and (2) No time to snack during the day. But it is so freaking hard to maintain no (2) especially when you are bored doing your work in the office. Let's see how the challenge goes. But for now, MFP says that Noona shall reach 51.6kg in the next 5 weeks if she keeps this up. Woots~
