Week 3: Prison Break & Calories!
Life in confinement can be boring and that’s the reason I wrote
some tips last week on how to survive it. However, one still can get crazy to
be confined in the same place for such a long time. Thus this is why we need a
PRISON BREAK!!! SSSSSssshhhhhhhhhh……………
|
It's Time for a PRISON BREAK!!! |
The story goes like this: during a dreary day when I kept
refresh my Facebook newsfeed, I ‘accidentally’ saw a feed by FCUK stating up to
80% sales from Jun 14-16 in FCUK 1-U & FCUK Queensbay! Oh my Gosh!!! Being
a FCUK dress fanatic, this is just too painful to skip! I know I’m HOPELESS but
I don’t care!!!

Helping the Malaysian Economy here!!! *Proud* |
On Jun 15 morning, my prison break accomplice gave me ‘signal’
to go ahead with the plan and there I was, trying to pull up my jeans miserably
and breathlessly… Mind you, it was an oversized jean which I bought from internet
ages ago and I thought I could fit in. To my HORROR, I barely able to pull it
pass my butt not to mention button or zip it!!! F**K!!!SOMEONE SHOOTS ME!!!
Okay, this was a setback but it would not deter my PRISON BREAK plan! So there I
was, breaking out of the prison by wearing an UNBOTTONED & HALF-ZIPPED
Jeans sweating like pig thanks to all the pulling! *facepalm*Thank goodness my
top was long enough to cover it!
|
I'm not Fat! I'm just Fluffy!!! |
We reached Queensbay at around 11am and saw that GAP was
having sales too! We ended up in FCUK 1st and got to know that we
could get extra 10% off if we bought 2 items and above (Including discounted
items). So Worth it! I ended up with a dress which the salesperson asked me
whether I would like to try it on. My answer? “NO, I will just take it!” The
girl looked at me dumbfounded – I guess she felt I would not be able to fit in
that size. Of course I could not fit in that size since I just delivered a baby
like less than 3 weeks ago!!!! DUH!!! However i didn't really blame her as i still looked FAT. More ridiculous thing had happened to me anyway - Bought a dress from FCUK when I was 8 months
pregnant and the salesperson asked me the same question! The same goes for
Guess Salesperson! Ask me to try on a jean I bought when I was 9 months
pregnant!!! What is it with these people?! *facepalm*
|
Customer is always right! |
|
Basic T at the Counter... LOL |
Anyway I’m happy to
say that we did not leave Queensbay empty-handed, other than FCUK, we also
managed to grab something from GAP as well. All settled in 1 hour – efficient huh?
LOL… *happy dance*
|
I definitely agree with this!!! |
|
HAPPY!!! |
The excitement was finally over when I got back to the
routine life of confinement. Sometimes it’s just so frustrating especially when
you are staring at your breastmilk flows down the pump drop by drop… and being
a cynical and un-motherly person that I am, here is the reason why you should
breastfeed or pump! According to Google, your body burns around 20-22 calories
for 1 ounce of breastmilk produced! So imagine you can burn 1000 calories (if
you have 50 ounces which I don’t!) just by sitting there pumping or
breastfeeding! Sound sweeter than running 10 miles right? *evil laugh*
|
What is Calories? |
|
The Calorie-Burning Machine!!! |
Rather than staring at your breastmilk flows down the pump drop
by drop during pumping, here are some tips on what you can do during pumping
which might actually help you to pump out more milk!
- Staring at your baby IF your baby is with you and you are
the motherly type. Pray the lil one won't cry during the whole process!
|
Motherly Love! |
- Swooning at your favourite HOT GUYS on TV/Laptop – this is
what I do! Muahhahaaa…. Hey, it really does help! You will forget about the
time and end up with more ounces than usual! REMEMBER!!! 1 oz = 20-22
calories!!!!!!
|
Swoon!!! |
- Chatting with friends in Skype/Whatapps – this works too!!! I
guess the milk flow depends on your mood too? Perhaps it flows faster when you are
in a giddy mood? =p
