After the gym today, Mum and I headed to our favourite kopitiam for brunch. ❤️
Mum ordered her favourite Lam Mee again, while I had curry "noodles" without the noodles. 😄 My keto version was loaded with chicken, roast pork, char siu and extra crunchy bean sprouts.
I paired my meal with a warm, unsweetened barley drink.
There was a time when milk tea was my absolute favourite. I loved it iced, unsweetened and with lots of evaporated milk! But as I've gotten older, my body doesn't seem to tolerate it anymore. These days, milk tea from outside stalls often leaves me with heart palpitations, insomnia, phlegm and even dizziness, from the caffeine.
I've also stopped drinking iced beverages and now prefer warm drinks most of the time. It's one of the small lifestyle changes I've made in the hope of ageing as healthily as possible.
Before heading home, I also picked up some lean roast pork and roast chicken breast for dinner.
Getting enough protein is important at every stage of life, especially after a workout, as our muscles need protein to repair and grow stronger.
I've been eating a low-carb diet since 2000 because of PCOS, so rice and noodles have been off my menu for over 25 years. It has become a way of life for me now.
