ivi 0 Report post Posted July 8, 2008 I was 62 kg, and once I become a vegetarian, i went down to 48 kg in 6 months, without cutting down the amount of food and without exercise.I love food, eventhough I prefer vege than meat, but I can't resist the chicken and fillet when I dine outside. I hardly have the self-control when comes to food. Gosh...I wonder what's the life would be without meat.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ivi 0 Report post Posted July 8, 2008 wow, your determination must be very strong. From the list you share with me, I wonder how long that I could stand not to have dinner (not even supper, I don't eat supper)I am short so when I get fatter, my tummy will be obviously be seen. Felt so bad when my colleague keep on teasing me on my tummy issue though she is not any better than me. I always telling myself when my wedding date is fixed, I'll start to put some effort to slim down my size. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MayWong 0 Report post Posted July 17, 2008 i did something like beutiful gown, cut off dinner, and very little lunch.then recently for my photoshoots, i cut off food totally, just very little, like maybe a bowl of soup a day, or some fruits.i lost a lot, about 5 kg within 2 weeks. but its really a very bad diet, was desperate and no choice. went down 1 dress size, but also felt a bit weaker.and lotsa of ppl tell me if i start eating normally again, theres the YOYO effect where i wil get even fatter than b4, so until now im really afraid to eat.. :( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tainhui 0 Report post Posted July 17, 2008 erm... is it so bad tht need to restrict yourself on eating? eatless will makes u crave even more. whether u eat more or eat less, balance diet is a must. cut down on dinner is a no no for long run. my advice is maintain balance diet instead of restrict urself from eating meat and just drink soup, eat fruits or starving.

I only manage to drop 3 kg only in two months :( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MayWong 0 Report post Posted July 17, 2008 tainhui.. yup.. ideally exercise and balance diet is the right way to do it. But i have low resistance towards food, i loveeeeee to eat. and lazy to exercise, dun like to sweat.. always making excuse, so when time is running out, no choice loh..Hazel: yup yup.. drastic number eh.. hehe.. i bought the wedding gown about 3 weeks ago, last sunday when i did my photoshoot, then realized the gown is so loose! (can actually slip down my body), so i lost like a dress size!!!!yes, at 1st i cut down rice and sugar, light meals, only loose luike 1 - 2 kg. thats why when about less than a month left, no choice but to go on crash diet lor..but i notice now i eat lesser.. could it be my tummy shrunk.. or used to small portions now?

meiteoh 0 Report post Posted July 17, 2008 Exercise and diet requires determination and discipline. NO ONE loves to exercise. Seriously. If I had it my way, I'd rather sit in front of the computer/TV instead of going out every two days for a jog and the weekends for three to five hour hikes. I remember watching Oprah Winfrey's coverage on her battle with weight loss and one of the things that struck me was that statement "NO ONE LIKES TO EXERCISE but we HAVE TO DO IT."Losing weight by not eating isn't healthy for your body in the long run, especially more so for women since our bodies churn out more fat-based hormones. Starving yourself is not the key to losing that extra few kilos or inches around your waist. The last time I tried crash dieting, the moment I got off it, I ended up putting on more weight than when I was before I started the crash diet. Besides, I ended up craving for more food. =.=If you must cut back on food, it's not by skipping meals but by portion control. Eat less of carbs, oils and sugar and up the veg & fruit content.And don't forget, exercise balances out everything...not skipping meals. I can't even begin to extol the virtues of exercise. I still hate jogging but I do it anyway because it keeps the fat off and I can still eat good food. The hikes help as well and I find that HB & I bond a whole lot more since we started hiking together. My stamina has increased and I hardly nap at all in the afternoons compared to before I started all this seriously.But more importantly, allow yourself some pleasures. You can still eat ice cream, pizza and what-not. Just watch the portions and frequency. Change your serving utensils, if you can. Opt for smaller plates, bowls and even spoons. I eat ice cream out of those souffle cups with a teaspoon in order to trick my brain into thinking that it's a lot. And by a lot, I mean two heaper tablespoons. And I make my own ice cream with lot-fat cream and pure fruit.I find that cooking and making your own meals helps with the struggle to maintain your weight because 1) you know what you put inside your food and 2) you can control the portions, fat-content and so forth.Hope this helps.

towtow 0 Report post Posted July 17, 2008 meiteoh, i agreed with all your points.I used to diet every ways i can and battled my weight for years, named it, no carbs, sugar blockage, fruit diet, soup diet food replacement, slimming centre, gym exercise etc etc. I been yo-yo from 60 to 72 then back to 57 and now stand still at 65kg. I am a big bone girl at 162cm. I love food for sure.Lose weight takes times, healthy way to lose weight is by lose around 1-2 kg per month so you would not have a bounced back. My conclusion to lose or maintained an ideal weight is by: eat healthy meals of small portions (you can have up to 4-5 meals a day) but no food after 8pm.- meals should have carb, red meat and lots of veggie + one fruit a dayExercise moderate about 30 mins for 3 times a week whenever you can (even walking stairs also help)- its can help your metabolism, blood circulation and your mind become fresherrewards yourself with your favourite food (like cheese cake, choc) once awhile (like 1 times in a month)Hope this help. No shortcut to lose weight... EAT HEALHTY, LIVE HEALTHY (EXERCISE) and Laugh a lot :P Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fluene 0 Report post Posted July 17, 2008 But I like exercise! I exercise for fun and not for slimming. When I run on threadmill, I will always strive to run faster to beat my previous time. Perhaps I am just too competitive Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hazel 0 Report post Posted July 18, 2008 Some people might look small and slim but their weight is big number. It is not because of fats, it might be water and the weight of your bone. The best I guess is to check the fats level. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
