I guess – its time to reset – reboot – restart. It has been a long time since I did this, and I guess its time. Have been falling off the bandwagon off and on and its really not helping. The news of friends of friends dying does give me the irk. Heart attacks.. strokes.. damn man. Too young for these stuffs!
The principles will still need to stick. Item 5 will be through this blog. I have made private most of my previous posting which lasted for quite a while which lasted for 85 days. That is almost 3 months, and I did managed to lose quite a bit of weight. And the off and on dieting and exercising managed to get me to a decent level. But I need to continue to push hard if I am going to meet my target. Not going to be easy to be honest. 85th day was July 1st, approximately about 1 year ago! Not bad actually.
Anyway – strategy will remain generally the same. Question that I have is whether I am going on low carb or just portion control. The problem of low carb is that it has too much fat which I am worried will impact my heart health. I rather have a balanced diet with portion control. Carbs can remain lower – but of course more importantly is to eliminate sugar completely!
Hmm… perhaps I need to move to more healthier options like brown rice, quinoa, etc etc. And eat in a much smaller quantity to manage the sugar spikes! Other than that, I should continue to exercise more because exercise helps with the whole weight reduction. Will do a good mix of cardio and weights, in addition to regular HIIT! I also have a Friday pilates session 🙂 Gotta make the core stronger yo!
Ok – enough for today. Day 1 to start tomorrow… so what’s the plan with the food and exercise:
Morning
- No breakfast!
- Quick cardio workout (1 hour) – either run or gym
Lunch
- Something light, carbless or clean food (like quinoa or brown rice)
- Fish!
- Fruits
Dinner
- Salad!
- Fruits
I need to not have carbs in the evening, and have at least 1 salad a day! Fruits is also an important component. After that.. water.. water.. water….
Let’s do this 🙂
