Not sure dude, but I think those cereal with fruits and raisins is definitely better. I'm gonna start eating this for my daily breakfast.

My first step of diet rules = No oily food

If I can control myself not taking any oily food first, i tried before many times, failed.

Sambal is definitely fattening, damn oily somemore.

Eat with some chilli sauce or tomato ketchup, but not too much.

for breakfast, oats and milk would be the best because oats have protein and that it does absorb fat to an extent.

So no need to pening bout breakfast

You're gonna crash and burn if you do this. I've seen it all too often. The more radical the change, hte greater the likelihood of failure. Especially when it comes to Malaysian food.

I don't know why some of you guys make cutting so complicated. Just eat a little less than what you're normally eating everyday. 3 tablespoons less rice from the plate, or one tablespoon less of oats in the morning, etc.

My weight is 80 kg and want to down to 75kg. I consume 5 tablespoon of oatmeal. Is it ok for me since i want to weight loss?

hmm, then is it fattening too, i mean the oat?

no, oats are not fattening per se.

it all depends to how much you consume, a non-fattening food can still make you fat if you eat too much and you can lose weight eating what you like/fattening foods if you eat in moderation while exercising.

hmm, if like u said then, eat a lot of oat will be fattening too?

jeeez........
no.....

Anything taken in EXCESS will make you fat. The healthiest food, taken excessively, will make you godamnned fat.

Anything taken in moderation, will not make you fat, as long as suitable excercises are incorporated into your daily routine.

WTh's so hard to understand about this anyway? Take a tonne of milk daily, and sleep, you get fat. Take a tonne of cabbage and do nothing, you'll still get fat.
Take a kilo of fried pork, excercise like a dog, and you're okay.

egg white vs tuna vs chicken

I know egg white has the best protein absorbtion rate and also the cheapest but sucks in preparation(boil em, peel em.. messy)

canned tuna- 75 percent more expensive than egg white. maybe lower protein absorbtion rate. contain essential minerals.

chicken- never try yet. pls comment

whats the best protein food thats easy to prepare? other than whey.

unless you're taking raw celery.

I think you should eat all of them.
shouldn't rely on one source.

for me, the hard boiled egg is the easiest to prepare. Go search online how to cook and prepare the hard boiled egg correctly. There are tons of them out there, quick and easy, less than 10 minutes.

tuna can just get out of can.. Tune in water... easy..

eggs.. put in boiling water. wait 3-5 minutes. peels.. eat..

chicken.. u need to go to the market.. choose, go back wash, steam, put wat ever shit u like with it.. eat.. clean.. wash the wok.. damn trouble some

Try not to overload on tuna eh, as it contains mercury which is bad for you in excess. Eggs are good unless you have a cholesterol problem, then cut down on the yolks. Also you missed milk (although whey is from cow's milk), drinkin cartoned milk has zero preparation time, stick in a straw and suck it in.

How about raw egg? The image of Stallone in Rocky cracking 6 eggs into a mug and drinking all in one shot is still in my mind.

Those of you mentioning chicken breast, be sure it is skinless chicken breast. Skins are so fattening (except fish skin).

For cereals, can try those fruits and bran stuff (like Posts brand) instead of the children cereal like Koko Krunch, Coco Pops, Honey Star, etc.

Yah I have a question about the egg yolks - since they are high in cholesterol, does skipping them have any effect in protein absorption? Since I read the protein is all in the whites anyway.

And something about this thread - wouldn't food for dieters and bodybuilders be radically different anyway, in terms of (but not limited to) volume.

Hmm dunno about absorption but I'm pretty sure the whites does not contain all the protein... yolks have proteins as well.

absorption rate for protein is the best in solid form, which mean the egg suppose to cook it or boil it until the egg white become visible white colour. The best is hard boil it. For those raw egg, human body cannot fully absorb it as most of it will be wasted. That's why for those who drink so many raw egg white everyday, after drink so much still the same.

half boiled egg can or not?..coz mostly i go to chinese kopitiam there and call this....4 half boiled egg and 2pcs of bread...yeah..its so tasty and surely bettert han the cereal..yuck

you can eat half boiled eggs, theres nothing wrong with that. u just dont get as much protein/etc from half boiled eggs as you would fully cooked eggs.

Furthermore, half-boiled eggs taste like phlegm to me... And it's easier to separate the yolk of a hard-boiled egg than half-boiled egg.
