やる気は自分が決めるもの!clean eatingを始めます!Starting clean eating tomorrow!!

So I regained 2kg.. And I'm feeling pretty crap about it. And the truth is, I'm not feeling crap because I gained 2kg, I'm feeling crap because I couldn't control myself.
2kgリバウンドしちゃいました。最低の気分です。2kgリバウンドしたから落ち込んでるわけではなくて、自分をちゃんとコントロールできなくて落ち込んでいます。

2kg may not sound like a lot when I've lost over 34kg from my heaviest weight, but when it takes almost a month to lose just 1kg nowadays, it really puts you off your momentum.
2kgリバウンドしたって他の人にとってそんなに心配するものではないかもしれないけど、今はだんだん痩せにくくなってるから、1kgを減るのは1ヶ月ぐらいかかるし、こういうのがあったら、ホンマに勢いがなくなります。

2 months ago, my body was in great condition on the INSIDE, I lost 8.2kg body fat from calorie restriction and macro counting and I felt a new found energy, my body felt so good.
2ヶ月前ぐらい、カロリー制限と多量栄養素の計算で8.2kg体脂肪量を減らした。たしかに身体の中に新たな活力がわいてくるのを感じました。気持ちよかったです。




But I became ridiculously obsessed. Spending hours planning my meals for the next day, carefully counting everything single gram of protein, fat, carbs.. I remember rejecting eating lunch with my friends just so I can go hide in the corner and indulge in my boiled chicken breasts. Eating 6 meals a day, working out 4 hours a day.. oh my gosh, that is just impractical when I'm trying to balance out school, work, live gigs.. I don't even have time to post on Youtube anymore.. If I had the time, I would still do it because I do enjoy calculating my macros.. but it's impossible.
でも、ダイエットのことで信じられないぐらい頭がいっぱいになってしまいました。何時間もかかって食事の計画をしたり、グラムまでたんぱく質、脂質と炭水化物を計算したり、友達に誘われても、いつも断って一人でどこかで隠してささみを食べたりしました。一日6回ぐらい食事することと4時間運動することも、私の今の生活には正直に言ったら少し不現実的です。量栄養素の計算するのが結構好きですし、もし時間があれば、いくらでもやり続けたいと思ってますが、時間的には無理です。




Even though I've come to lose a good amount of weight from this diet, I've got to admit that I wasn't strong all the time.. I've had many many, way too many binge episodes and other episodes which I'd rather not mention. And I think I now have a mild eating disorder which I don't want to admit but if I don't I know I'll never get out of it
このダイエットでいっぱい痩せてきましたが、必ずしもコントロールできたわけではありません。何回もむちゃ食いなどのことをしてしまいました。認めたくないんですけれど、しないと治れないと思っていますので、うん、すこし摂食障害になっています。

But don't worry, I'm okay!
でも心配しないで!私は大丈夫です!



And I realised.. I'm not trying to lose weight anymore.. I just want my body to feel good.. and any weight loss that comes with that is a bonus! I'm sick of weighing myself a million times a day.. I'm sick of the the number on the scale dictating the way I feel about myself every single damn morning. I want to be in control of how I feel about myself without a stupid number telling that's how I should be feeling.
そして、やっと気付きました。体重ってどうでもいいです。体重を減らすよりも身体的に、精神的に、快適と感じたいです。その上に、体重も一緒に減っていくんだったら、おまけです!一日中100万回ぐらい自分の体重を計るのはもう嫌です。毎朝毎朝その数字で私のその日の気分を決定づけるのも嫌です。そのくだらない数字にはもう支配されたくありません。


My motto that I used to motivate people in my last post, I will use to motivate myself:
If you are unhappy with yourself, change!
自分のことに関して不満であれば、自分を変え!

And I will.
そうします!

As of this post, I will no longer count my calories and macros. Instead, I will eat clean, or as clean as possible. Haha. Fruits, vegetables, whole and raw foods. Simple! 
これを書いた時点から、もうカロリー制限や量栄養素の計算はしません。その代わりにClean-eatingを始めます。できればヘルシーなものを選びます果物、お野菜、自然食品など!それだけ!

No matter how much I wanna exercise, I will give my body a break at least once a week.
どんなに運動したくても、週1回体を休ませます。

I will put away my scale. I will trust my body.
体重計を片付けます。自分の体を信じます。

I will not do things that are harmful to my body. I will learn to love myself.
自分の体を傷つくことはしません。自分のことを好きになります。

If there is something I really really really want to eat, I WILL EAT IT.
万が一ホンマにホンマに食べたいものがあったら、食べます!!


You are your own motivation!


やる気は自分が決めるもの!

Just make the decision, cut the crap and DO IT!

  2. Hi Rei! I've been watching your videos for quite a long time now. And this is my first time coming to your blog. I've never posted anything, only quietly watching all your funny and interesting videos about your exchange and of course your wonderful songs.

    From last time until now, you have changed drastically and I'm sure everyone noticed. It's a good thing, but please do take care of your health! Personally I think the way you are now is good enough. When I saw how you slimed down so quickly, it kind of had me worried. And you look kind of tired as well... Enjoy life more, since it's short.

    I'm not sure if you will read this comment, but I just hope that you will be happy and healthy! You have my support!
    Oh and just to let you know, I really love the songs you've composed, they are amazing!! It just makes me feel calm. So keep it up! \(^o^)/

    P.S. I'm not some kind of stalker... I'm just your fan! hehheh!

    With Love,
    Ifen
