Hello
This is my first post outside the general introduction thread. skinnyninja I would like to congratulate you in making such a decision because health is a precious thing and if we do not look after it we will regret it later. Trust me, I know.. I used to be Obese and I went on a diet and lost about 25 Kilograms. My diet was low fat, carbohydrates and sugar. It will work if you stick to it. I did not deprive myself completely of all food groups, I did have fat, carbohydrates and sugar however moderately and in low amounts. I did exercises with it, I did 45 minutes of weights and 45 minutes of cardio exercises 3 to 4 days a week.
I used to eat crazy but I had to make that decision and change my mentality. So I suggest low fat, carbohydrates and sugar. If you really want eat heavy food do not do that at night time. Leave about 3-4 hour break before you go to sleep, for instance if you sleep at 11 pm your last meal should be at about 7 and that’s it. You can eat fruit and vegetables before you sleep
if you get hungry. That’s because the body is not really active at night as it is during the day and it goes on its “relaxed mode” if you want to call it that , when you sleep. Really there won’t be much digestion and any food you eat will be stored as fat over night.
Well I can really go on about this without stopping as 25 kgs
thank you
Ali
