This is part 2 of 6 of my year in review for 2021. The area of focus here will be health.
When we get older, health becomes a greater concern.
I did a health checkup mid this year, and one item on the list was a relatively high cholesterol. The good one was ok. The bad one was high.
My weight also ballooned after I stopstop lactation. In a span of half a year, my weight ballooned 10+ kg. The effect of eating the same amount after lactation. I looked around for diets for reference, and decided on a low carb diet. I really love rice, noodles, and so on. Basically starchy starchy stuff. But they are low in nutrients, and fattening. So I tried a rather low carb diet.
I also started putting exercise back to my life. There's a running track near my place, and I started running. I chose running because the track was so near that I could hardly give myself excuse not to. If I chose swimming, I could use the excuse of not being able to book a slot. So I run. It was timely that the new season of the National Step Challenge came along. I used the tracker to track my runs and heartbeat, instead of mindlessly shaking my hand to get steps.
2021 ended with me losing 2 kg from my all time high.
