sleep well, that will do... Follow your normal day life. eat normally BUT remember to sleep almost the same time as you set it to... (before 12 will be the BEST) and make sure that you follow it... THat might help. No need to skip meals lar... It only make you worst (especially at the starting stage).
Probably do some joggin when you dont feel so tired when you get home from work.

either lunch or dinner...hardly ever both...

i used to do it like 1 meal a day because no money. I end up getting diarrhea 3-4 times a week.

i wonder why u would wanna torture yourself???

why? its not healthy, it helps you lose muscle not fat and its not fun. might aswell eat and be fat instead, you'll be just as unhealthy but atleast you get to have fun enjoying food.

Instead of skipping dinner completely, eat something light like I do (like a cereal bar or something).

And don't eat supper

It depends on your goals. And at the end of the day it's calories in vs calories out. For me, supper is a must. Growth hormone synthesis occurs the most during sleep, but catabolism occurs the most during this phase. Some form of slow digesting protein (caseinate) is recommended.

Of course eating nasi lemak, roti canai, mee goreng, etc is plain silly and asking for trouble. This is where the myth comes from. That eating supper makes you fat.
Think, 8 hours of sleep, 8 hours of not eating, 8 hours of catabolism if your last meal is 3 hours before you sleep, most of the protein would have been digested. Your muscles will be leeching of amino acids from each other. Eating a proper supper before you sleep can actually hardwire your metabolism causing muscle gain and fat loss.

alright...good tips.

But I don't eat much during night when I feel like it is not needed to

just eat when ur hungry.

good for ur body & wallet,

I hear ya. I don't really feel hungry before i sleep too. And sometimes i seriously crave for nasi goreing cendawan and all that, but i guess bodybuilding is a lifestyle, not something just to be done on the side. I kinda envy those fellas who're eating the typical Malaysian supper sometimes.
I basically have to force myself to eat a moderate sized healthy supper before i sleep or else i'll wake up starving!

you've stated the reason,bro

and to be honest with you,i'd much rather spend my RM5 on a ps2 game,then on a meal...
lasts much longer (no,im not joking)

it does help me lose fat
mostly around my stomach...

i starve myself from lunch till lunch the next day after college...

Pure heresy!!

if it didnt help me lose weight,i wouldnt be doing it as much la

cos other than losing weight,i also become weak(duh!)

are you sure its fat you're losing?

you say you become weak, wonder why?

why not just take 15minutes a day and do some exercises and maintain a happy regular eating habbit? its help with stress, you'll be stronger, you'll lose fat, you get to EAT and endorphines are funfun.

i dunno but self starving imo is stupid, why torture yourself everyday when there are healthy fun alternatives.

yeah,my stomach becomes smaller..
btw,why is this so hard to believe?
something wrong somewhere?

is it not obvious?


i walk home from class takes around 20 minutes...
other than that nothing


dont know bout that....muscle aches dont relieve me of anything...and i have the experience to prove it

im not really much of a fan of eating now...
cant eat much,stomach used to it
funny thing,though..
many in my family tend to get gastric...dont eat abit,get gastric...dinner late abit,gastric,bla bla bla...but never once have i got it..


you've got no choice when you've got no money,mate

+ fooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooood!

mmmmm fooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooood!
