But then i eat alot during weekends, make me feel as if i'm becoming a lazy potato all over again. Ahahahaa. Weekend gym problems tongue.gif

gardenia wholegrain bread 2 slices (57g) 124kcal.

what exactly does this mean? is it a high carb item that should be avoided?

thanks nutrition gurus.

i went bread shopping just now at the grocery store nearby
I bought the one in the green plastic. Gardenia. With sunflower seed if im not mistaken because it has the lowest carb, highest calcium compared to the others.

How do you slim down anyway?
You got special diet to follow?
*
Based on diet, best tip i can give is to reduce on fats, oil, carbs, sugar and salt. Let's just say i'm preparing a whole chicken leg today, i'll take the time to scrap and remove all the fats in the chicken leg. Some people they just cook them without removing the fats. Reduce on sugar and salt, replace ordinary cooking oil with olive oil. If you're working out mostly everyday, have carbs in the morning/afternoon. Try your best and keep your carbs level low at night. Eat alot of fruits and vegetables too ( i seldom eat fruits sweat.gif ) . Vegetables for fibre (Y)

So it's best to not eat fried stuffs right?
But I will find it hard to get steamed or boiled food for every meal.
Thanks for your advice anyway.
I do go for a run three to four times a week.
I am seeing some results already  rclxms.gif

Definately! I have not eaten fried stuff like fried chicken for 3 months already! Ahahaha!
I do my cardio ( stationary bike ) 3 times per day smile.gif
Glad to see results! Keep it up! rclxms.gif

I tend to feel hungry at night around 11pm.
And I can't fall asleep with a hungry stomach.
So will tend to eat either junk food (biscuits) or instant noodles.
It's very bad for my health..  sad.gif
Is there a solution to this??
Thanks everyone!

When i face these kind of situations, i'll drink a cup of milk. If im still hungry, i'll prob have oat and milk, just a small cup. Wouldnt wanna feel full before i sleep. Or prob fruits, an apple or something smile.gif

been checking some of the internet sites, seems like chinese cooking is rather high in calories due to the oil.
means 'chap fan' or mixed rice for lunch is a no go sad.gif

what other substitutes then? bread? mi hun soup?
*
definately! Especially meals like hokkien mee, cause the chef throws in something called 'lards', i forgot what's the name of it. Pork fats, something like that. Well, if i'm eating in a hawker stall, i'll usually order chicken rice. I'll ask for less rice, more chicken and more vegetables smile.gif Mi Hun soup depends, cause some put ajinomoto (dont know how to spell sorry lol) in it

i would like to lose 5 kilos.

i've started doing sit-ups and light exercise daily at home. i also purchased this product called Kinohimitsu J'pan Kilos Cut . there're 30 sachets to be consumed on a daily basis.

i've done some review on this Kinohimitsu thingy and yet to read any negative side effects regarding it.

anyone has anything to share about Kinohimitsu products, and also any motivation tips to maintain my daily exercise?

thanks smile.gif

Ermm i dont know about you but i wont trust those kind of product. Whether isit harmful to your body or not. I will suggest you to focus on cardio, and if you wanna tone up, check out http://www.youtube.com/user/charliejames19...re=results_main

Sometimes the exercises that we've done is not enough. We keep thinking that these 'exercises' can you lost your weight. For health purpose, maybe it is enough; better than be a potato couch but to lose weight, more intensity and volume is needed, and a well balance diet.

Props for the weight loss result  rclxms.gif . How much do you need to lose? 
Sometimes less is more. When you've been working out every day for every weeks, you body do get tired eventhough you do have alternate rest day. Some people take a week break every 8 weeks of heavy intense training, and they will come back stronger. In fact, one of the tip to break plateau is to take a week off. Kinda defeat the purpose if you want to get stronger right?  brows.gif
That is the main primary fat storage for man. You need to have a low single digit body fat percentage to lose them. And some people, although they have less fat around the love handles, the obliques still didn't show up. Bad genetics. Haha

LOW + SINGLE digit body fat percentage? Haha, looks like i still have a long way to go sweat.gif

I think it also helps to prevent your belly fats from "sagging" further.
What kind of fats burning workouts would you recommend?
Cos some workouts are for certain parts of our body (legs, arms).
*
I will recommend cardio or afterburn workouts ( mountain climbers, etc ) cause eventually we'll get bored of cardio doh.gif

QUOTE(DJJD @ Jul 6 2012, 12:35 AM)
That's because the calories expended during such light exercise is actually very minimal.

If for example instead of weight training you began running marathons you would have seen similar progress in fat loss (although obviously less muscle gains).

A lot of people overestimate their exercise and underestimate their calories consumed (especially in Msia thanks to teh tarik, nescafe, milo, etc) which is reflected in our growing obesity rate.


Added on July 6, 2012, 12:36 am

Don't be silly, of course it won't.

I just ran 21km at the last Stan Chart, and I did the full marathon at last years' Stan Chart. Didn't lose any muscle! smile.gif

Just eat something light before you run. Powerbar works good.

Ahaha, my calves are aching. I dont usually run. Anyways thanks for your advice! Btw, is my results normal?

QUOTE(alien9 @ Jul 6 2012, 01:28 AM)
Anerobic exercises are the kind of exercise that you only can do for a short time (around 30 seconds before you need to stop). A very good example is weightlifting. You cannot do 25 reps of heavy squatting without stopping because you will be very tired and your body won't allow you to do that; that is why comes the 5X5 which is 5 sets of 5 reps. Every 5 reps is one set, and you rest between sets.

Compared to aerobic exercises, it can be done for a long period such as slow pace jogging, marathon etc2.
This is the key word there. I won't know what exercises that I need to do if I don't do my research. In this IT era, almost all people have access to internet. If they can't google what is the best exercises, how to do them, diet etc, then it's their fault.

I didn't need any instructors at all. My gym PT cost me RM 18.00 per session where I can get all info on the Internet and it's free.
*
RM18.00 per session is pretty cheap shocking.gif
I mean, if you compare with the price of PT in Celeb Fitness. Lol.
