My success story of week#1 : I managed to lose 1 kg by following the listed rules:
- Drink water. Drink a minimum of 2 Liters/day
- Eat small balanced meals every 3-4 hours. Small = about 300-400 calories. Balanced= The meals contain a portion of protein, carbohydrate (complex), vegetable, fruit
- Stop eating 4 hours before bedtime
- Workout for a minimum of 45 minutes at least 5 times a day. Make sure your heart rate is within the fat burning zone when working out
- Avoid high in sugar/high in fat food and Soda
Challenge:
I was invited to a birthday party on Monday of week 1. As much as I tried hard to avoid eating cake, I honestly could not resist. It was so good and so delicious beside, who'd attend a Birthday party without having his/her share of the Birthday cake?
I did not avoid social gatherings. Healthy lifestyle should include socializing. What I did was eating as planned "small balanced meals" during the day. I had my share of the cake in the party. I actually thought I over ate from the cake, but when I got back home. I did my Cardio worked out. Guess what? I did not gain anything!
So, this is all what I did in week 1. It was a success. I need to lose one more kg to reach my new weight goal. I'll follow the same rules with better meal planning and harder workouts.
What's your success story of the week?
