I'm 135 cm tall. Previously, my weight was 67 kg, and after nearly 2 months of diet, my weight drops to 55 kg now. Previously, my stomach was really bloated, very big tummy until it is very obvious when wearing normal shirt, got insulted for it and it became my motivation to diet. Now, I don't have the bloated stomach and I can manage to reduce my double chin to single chin lol.

But there's a problem....I can't seem to go below 55 kg since few weeks ago....


What I did since the very first day of my diet until now:
1. Stops eating rice for lunch. Only two vegetables.
2. Eat little rice for dinner, cause dinner at home, my parents will nag if i don't eat rice.... doh.gif

3. Stops eating deep fried and fried chicken, butter milk chicken, KFC, MC Donalds

4. Everyday jogging for 1 hour in the evening, sometimes rest once a week

5. I have my own "Cheating" day, once a week when outing with friends....at most I will eat ABC, Special, or popcorn for movies

now, my weight cant drop below 55kg already....any idea how to go slimmer?


Edit: the comments above this are discussing about the same problem lol...but I don't go for gym (Expensive, don't have time, can only jogging everyday)...i just wanna know if there's any problem with my current diet

well, your weight drop, and so your BEE will drop.
but you didn't change your diet to adjust for the different BEE.

hence plateau of the weight.

why are you 135 cm tall ? are you at the age where you are still growing up ?

Can I know what's the meaning of BEE? I can't understand that and can't google also hahaha

Btw, I'm 23 years old and I think my size can't grow any bigger....the 135 cm just an estimate by using 15cm ruler, my height is as tall as a normal class white board, shorter than any door

Incorporate some HIIT workouts or tabata exercise. Avoid ABC and popcorn.

Thanks for this, I'm starting a new diet after reading through the comments in this thread....my new diet is to eliminate sweet stuffs, like what you said, popcorn and ABC. Regarding the workouts, I will try go search..,

Last time I got do sit ups, but it's very tough and painful

weight drop, energy requirement also drop.

hence you need to eat even less if you want to lose weight.

Thanks for this, I will try consider this, because if i eat lesser than now, worry that it will cause a gastric

uhh, 135cm is the avg height for a 10yr old.
its either u are very bad at measuring / extremely short / trolling.
*
Should be bad at measuring...cause I estimated my height by using a 15cm ruler, and i calculated my height by measuring how many of this 15cm ruler makes up my total height, around 9 times....so 9 x 15cm = 135cm

cant find a suitable measuring scale nearby, havent been to the clinic for quite long

QUOTE(-kytz- @ Jan 12 2016, 12:29 PM)
Are you sure you are 135cm?
*
Not very sure actually, just an estimate based on using a 15cm ruler that i have...

i wanted to figure out if my diet has something to do with my body mass index

QUOTE(champlaos11 @ Jan 12 2016, 01:02 PM)
You need to do more higher intensity exercises as well as bodyweight workouts in order to enhance weight loss.
*
Yeap I researched on this already. From today onwards, I'm trying the HIIT method that you suggested....

30 seconds jogging, 30 seconds run sprint, 30 seconds jogging...for many turns

previously i was jogging at normal speed without running

Your metabolism will dropped when your weight dropped, means your Basal metabolic rate (BMR) dropped because you will lose muscle as well! Not just water and fat.
For example, your food intake is fixed:

First month (When you at 67kg)
Calories in (2000) < Your BMR (2000)+ exercise (500)

Second month (When you at 60kg)
Calories in (2000) < Your BMR dropped (1800) +exercise (450) *weight lose will decrease your calorie usage while exercise*

Third month (When you at 56kg)
Calories in (2000) = Your BMR dropped (1600) +exercise (400)

Conclusion: Only calories deficit can lose weight.

Solution (to achieve calorie deficit):

1) Increase your workout intensity -> burn more calories (HIIT, eg: sprint)
2) Weight training or resistance training -> build more muscles, more muscle mass will give me high BMR (no money to gym? Do it at your home, such as push up, pull up, plank, squat, burpees, high knees and etc)
3) Eat less/no calorie dense food -> decrease calorie in
4) Drink green tea, no sugar please -> increase metabolism, means increase BMR

The progress will be slow but slow progress is still a progress!! Be consistent and stay healthy!

Just my 2 cent  cool2.gif

Thanks thanks!! Actually, i drop 1 kg already lol....from 55kg to 54 kg LOL...

Anyway, right now, my body rib cage can be easily seen, but the down part of my stomach still a bit fat...

I'm trying to lose more calary and do more running in between my jogging session

but....sometimes really need to break the rules and drink some "sweet" drink with gf, if not she angry sweat.gif

Soon, people who do cardio (jogging) and diet, will realize that the most difficult challenge is to eat Vegetables for lunch, and need to jog in the evening. Freaking hungry...
