Hey guys, need advice here.
I recently gain about 7kg after holiday-ing around in Aus and Msia (big big mistake). As it is my BMI was already in the overweight zone, now it's the end of the scale.
I'm keeping a food journal. Worked for a bit, but I tend to put on around 0.5-1kg during the weekends.
I've lost a total of 2 kg for the past 1.5 months but I want to speed that up.
Height : 156cm
Weight : 66kg
Aim : 55-58kg by the end of this year (lose 10kg)
I exercise twice a week. Usually cardio on the threadmill and bicycle for 25 mins each. Sometimes will replace it with badminton for 40 minutes instead.
My diet is heaviest at dinner time as I have to follow what the family eats. My only control is at breakfast and lunch.
Breakfast : usually skip (rush out to avoid traffic). Sometimes half a bowl of Kellogs Special K cereal with low fat hi-cal milk.
Lunch : one roll of sushi OR economy "rice" with 2 servings of veggies replacing the rice and one serving of egg/tofu.
My problem here is the lack of time to exercise. As for dieting alone, any advice? I have 3 tablespoons of basmathi rice per day max. The rest are veggies and meat. No junk food/biscuits/soft drinks or late night snacking.
As for the veggies during lunch, what kind should I go? I know definitely not the likes of potatoes. I see brinjal tend to be very oily too.
My progress has always been slow. I'm the type with slow metabolism.
My thoughts.
I chose not to navigate through your diet, which you seem to already have a fundamental grasp on it. What I don't get is dinner where you say you do not have control over as you follow whatever your family eats. This is true when it comes to
you eat. Portion control.
You barely exercise. Now this is true, considering you exercise 2 out of 7 days. Which isn't even half. So your problem isnt the diet portion which takes up 80% of your post. Your problem lies here :
Fix this and you'll see results on your current diet.
