Weight Loss 10 or less to lose - CLOSED GROUP! May 28 2008

Stephiepops, i think you've done it the other way round. You should be taking a heavy meal as lunch(chicken, fish etc)and take light food such as a soup or something at night because you have less time to digest the food at night. You go to sleep about 5 or 6 hours after having your dinner and people don't usually exercise at night, do they? Hope that helps.

I think you might want to get a buddy who's approach is compatible with yours. I'll only be jogging+some workout on arms etc 3 or 4 times a week with no strict diet on lunch. I'll eat anything that i like for lunch(so that i wouldn't be dissatisfied at night since i'll only be taking soy milk) except the(obviously)unhealthy food like burgers, cheese or fried chicken.

Weight Loss Best way to reduce calorie intake? May 28 2008

Thanks for the reply, narissa!


OK, i've used the calculator on another website and i need about 2400 calories per day. So far, my plan works for me, to certain extent. I won't feel left out of food/miss those tasty food that i always love to eat as long as i still take them in the afternoon, which is, my lunch. It's really hard for me to keep track of my calorie intake to be honest. Here's the problem, i'm a Chinese and most of the food that i take are, well, chinese food and there's no way i could figure out the calorie content of those food.(for example, fried noodles or some soup noodles). However, i think that doesn't really matter, does it?As the saying goes, eat like a king in the morning, eat like a prince in the afternoon and lastly, a beggar at night. I've been eating like a ''king'' for all three meals for the past 17 years so i'm just going to swap my dinner with extremely low calorie content soy milk.(instead of a grand dinner with perhaps 800 calories or more). I don't think i'll really feel bored by just taking soy milk every night, i want to lose weight more than anything. Oat meals worked for a few days but the i truly detest the way it tastes. It took me about 10 minutes to finish the bowl of oat meal, it was a nightmare stuffing those thing into my mouth. On the other hand, even if i do get bored of soy milk, it still wouldn't affect me much as i can just flush it down my stomach within seconds. Sweet and easy.

Cool! I'm in!

Age:18

Height: 168cm

CW: 70-73kg, yes it fluctuates a lot

Goal weight: 62kg

 

I'm going to start on a soy-milk based diet. I love soy milk and i love its low calorie/high protein nature even more!

By the way, on the oat meal container label, i saw it stating 100g of that(oat meal)will give 350kcal, does that mean 350,000 calories? I thought we're supposed to take about 2000calories a day only? How can 100g of oat meal generate more than 100 times energy of our theoretical calorie intake of a day? I thought oat meals are meant to be very low in energy content? Sorry..but i guess this might just be some sort of confusion over the prefix unit.
