@Yinx,Sima&HG

@kkmny,
Is this your 1st attempt @ weightloss?I'm also assuming the wedding is still far away?

babs2011:
@HG: how far dear? You seem a bit quiet on the logs...

Yes o, these days its a sign that am working, lol. Can I be allowed to keep it that way till I repent?

Jillian's Rotation are awesome when it is consistently done. One great advantage of Shred is a "hip enhancement", is someone smiling right now.

May the good Lord deliver us all from the clutch of OVEREATING/eating the wrong stuffs, May He grant us grace, firmness of heart, and a disciplined heart to resist the temptation not to workout. May He grant us the simplicity of heart to make simple choices, healthy choices that are light and consistent.

Today is Sunday, we need to pray

By all means there must be a difference in my meals to lose all I desire this year.

Milk is a good source of calcium. But still be careful of full cream milk.

Everything is wrong about this your diet, in my view.
First off, breakfast should be your heartiest meal. Eat a solid breakfast, conservative lunch, and almost no dinner.
I would have had the yam and fried egg for breakfast, the noodle for lunch, and the apple + green tea for dinner.

Secondly, if you really wanna shed weight, you need to stop taking yam, fried egg, beef, and indomie noodles.
Substitute with boiled plantain, fish, vegetable soup (not edika ikong o!). I have stopped yam entirely since October. Same goes for white rice, bread, potatoes, etc. And the results have been excellent.

And by the way, I use the Dano Slim. I don't know which one is better, that's the one that's readily available.

hi every1....happy new yr gud to see u guys are still kicking it. im with jilian michaels now....ve divorced taebo for now...jus cheking tk kia

Lovely advice and analysis, but what about we that lack self discipline to stop eating yam and rice and is not having a DO NOT/BAN on our everyday lifestyle.



@Yinx, I think Dano is better, Marvel is like sawdust.

Nobody lacks discipline, you just need to try.
Prior to October, I could eat rice in the morning, afternoon and evening. I always ate like 3 cups worth of rice at a sitting. I was that addicted to the stuff. When i went off it, I felt I was going mental.

Na una wan lose weight. I tried it, and I am close to the 20kg-lost mark now. If you don't want to lose weight, you can exercise and stuff to stay fit. But if you need to shed weight, you need to watch what you eat, and cut out some foods from your diet entirely, until you get to your target weight.

AjanleKoko:

Koko, this is my point. Anything I will not cut off till old age, why cut it just to get to a target weight and when I relax after the goal weight, the pounds come rushing back. No! What I want is a lifestyle, I want that when 7kg has left me, it MUST be gone forever. I am within range and I am not adding for any reason even when I do not workout for a week now. I feel a permanent lifestyle is the best ambition for every loser, I registered at a gym because it is close to where I live and work, I raised a home gym with DVDs and equipment because THESE will be with me for years to come, gradually I will surely get there. I reduce all meals including treats to one serving, max 1.5 and am good with that, things like my eba and amala that am not sure of, MODERATION is my watchword.

Whatever you deduce from the above epistle is for Hour Glass. Find what will work for you. If I have tested and tried anything and it never worked for me, I will not recommend it.

Thanks for the analysis, well I can reverse those foods in the order which u have placed them... The reason why I didn't eliminate those "bad" foods is because, I've tried it once and when I did slip and fall, I fell real hard cuz I kept craving them like they were my last breath so instead of cutting them out entirely what I did was MODERATION and PORTION control, if I must eat rice, its nt more than 2 serving spoons which is usually less than one milk tin of rice.. My noodles is just the small pack... The fried egg was just one small one wnd fried with a tablespoon of oil both of them less than 200cals.... I won't make myself suffer and crave those foods and eat them in excess rather I'll eat them but in a sensible way, but I'll reverse the order like u said... I don't have ur own kind of discipline and I give u kudos for that.... Thanks once more... For the milk... I'll choose the Dano Slim then

AjanleKoko:

Actually one of the best ways to break a weight loss plateau is to eat your breakfast for dinner and vice versa, once a while. It has a way of keeping your body guessing, it helps.

Running 30 mins
400 bike crunches

40 elevated push ups

monday's log

11am: one medium slice of boiled yam + 2mugs of green tea

5:30pm: fist size amala(mixture of wheat and plantain flour) with ogbono

8pm: one slice of boiled panla fish.

exercise: nil

@HG,
Sound point of view my sis,totally on point!!its a marathon not a sprint,I know for a fact that no one short of celebs(paid to do it) can live day in day out under such rigid regime and not snap,unlikely.
Friends don't offer me fried foods, neither do they offer me anything sugared,pastry or anything remotely fattening cos they know I would not do it,one of my closest chums doesn't even offer me ANYTHING(she has concluded that I need help with my OCD about food) cos she has nothing remotely healthy in her house,she usually has stuff like cakes,samosa,Tozo part of beef swimming in 3lts of oil in her stew,her vegetable is filled with shaki,abodi etc
I can't for anything take away eba,amala,rice,yam,pounded yam from my life what else is there

@Koko,
I am not knocking your style,I just have a hard time seeing you on this program in 2015, that all.

If you're referring to the Cambridge thingy, I have long left that behind. So no need to wait till 2015 .

If you're referring to an overall healthy lifestyle, don't knock it till you try it is what I'll say. I have drastically changed my eating and lifestyle habits. I am way more active now, cut out a lot of things from my diet, and I'm not feeling any stress or pressure.

The Cambridge thing succeeded in helping me drop a lot of weight fast, something I had struggled with for years. That's what crash diets are for. Let's see how things turn out.

Hmm. Very easy to lose weight.

There is one, I mean just one sure-fire solution . Do it every day and thank me later.


^^You know what I mean?

brb

Hm interesting points of view here regarding diet and weight loss. I'm firmly in the 'portion control' camp and don't believe in cutting out whole food groups to lose weight. They have their part to play in our diet. especially if you can switch to the wholegrain variety where possible (brown rice/ ofada, wholegrain bread etc).
As long as you eat them in moderation because that is Real life, self control then I see no problem. Cutting out food groups to achieve weight loss can be a fast way to drop those kgs but not the way our bodies were designed to function. one has not learnt how to exercise self control and when you re-introduce these foods it's usually a downward spiral. I have friends who have done this totally cutting out carbs thing and they ended up putting back all the weight plus more. In general it's not sustainable unless you plan never to eat carbs again for the rest of your life,then that would be a different matter altogether.
