Weight Loss Secrets -menarik ni
extract from here
Weight Loss Secrets
1. Mix a juice spritzer. Combine your favorite juice (half of your usual amount) with plain or sparkling water. You can cut up to 85 calories per glass--and lose 5 pounds or more a year.
2. Pick up the cordless. Burn calories while you talk: Do the laundry (68 calories), set the table (85 calories), or water plants (102 calories). (Values based on a 150-pound person and half an hour of activity.)
3. Pop a piece of gum. Researchers recently discovered that chewing sugar-free gum all day increases your metabolic rate by about 20 percent. That could burn off more than 10 pounds a year.
4. Pay cash for treats. Anytime someone offers you goodies--and you accept--put $1.00 aside. Then give the money to your kids. When you literally pay for treats, you're more likely to say "No thanks."
5. Study the wrapper. At a quick glance, that candy bar appears to contain 220 calories. But a closer look may reveal that it (or a bottle of juice, bag of crackers, or bag of nuts) provides two or more servings--which more than doubles those calories.
6. Sip green tea before you walk. The caffeine frees fatty acids so that you burn fat more easily. And the polyphenols (antioxidant compounds) in green tea appear to work with caffeine to increase calorie burn. (If you have high blood pressure, skip this tip.)
7. Ditch diet shakes. The cut calories are only temporary; you just eat more later.
8. Pack a lunch. Dining out more than five times a week may make you eat more--nearly 300 calories a day--than if you dine out less frequently.
9. Dip your bread. Use olive oil in place of butter. It's healthier and may also help you eat less. In a recent study, dippers ate a total of 52 fewer calories on average than those who used butter.
10. Sprinkle flax on your cereal. High-fiber, ground flaxseed can help curb your appetite and eliminate calories. Add it to yogurt or muffin and bread mixes. Available in health food stores.
11. Dress with this:
• 1 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
• 1/4 tsp olive oil
• 3/4 tsp dijon mustard
• 1/4 tsp horseradish Mix together
It makes for a tasty salad dressing with only 20 calories and 1.5 grams of fat.
12. Schedule a blood test. About 1 in every 12 women (most of whom don't know it) has an under active thyroid, which can slow down her metabolism.
13. Supersize your H2O. Buy the big bottle when it comes to good-for-you stuff such as water: You'll drink more.
14. Trick your tastebuds. Sucking on a menthol/eucalyptus cough drop can stop cravings instantly.
15. Spice up your meals. Adding hot chile pepper (or capsaicin) to food may help you stop eating sooner.
16. Pour a white cocktail. Like water, low-fat milk's volume fills your stomach, but it also contains carbohydrates--so you eat less.
17. Chunk your salad. Chop carrots, celery, sweet potatoes, zucchini, or other veggies instead of shredding or slicing. It takes more effort to munch bigger pieces; you'll do more chewing and eat less during the main course.
18. Call a friend. Fill loneliness with talk--not cookies.
19. Log your food. Writing down what you eat can help you cut calories and stay in control because you're more accountable. No need to record it perfectly or review what you wrote: The benefit is in the writing itself.
20. Fidget. You can burn up to 700 calories a day!
21. Retire the remotes. You could easily burn 200 extra calories a day if you stop using the TV/VCR remote, garage door opener, electric can opener, riding mower, car, and other laborsaving devices.
22. Spray--don't drizzle. Use an olive oil sprayer such as MISTO to add flavor to salads, chicken, fish, or pasta--without all the calories. A 2-second spray evenly distributes about 1/2 teaspoon of oil, compared to the 2 or 3 teaspoons you might get when pouring. That'll save you up to 100 calories per use. Available in department stores.
23. Buy small. The bigger the package, the more you're likely to eat--up to 44 percent more, according to one study.
24. Break into a jog. If you already jog, speed up to a sprint. These brief intervals allow you to cover more distance, burn fat and calories--without lengthening your workout. The increased impact will also help make your bones stronger.
25. Measure before cooking. It's easy to overeat pasta, but not if you cook the right amount at the start. For a perfect portion, keep a quarter near your spaghetti. Its diameter is exactly the size of the 2-ounce stack (about 200 calories) that you should serve per person. Or buy a dry-pasta measurer sold in gourmet cooking stores.
26. Rent a spooky movie. You're less likely to eat when you're fearful--but more likely when you're angry or happy.
27. Reflect on your choices. Looking at yourself in a mirror while eating may help you consume 22 to 32 percent less.
28. Drop and do 10. Before you pry open that tub of ice cream, do 10 situps or pushups. Doing something physical can put you back in touch with your body--and your goals.
29. Take a whiff. When you really want those fresh-baked cookies, try this: Indulge in the smell for 30 seconds. Then place a small piece on the tip of your tongue for another 30 seconds. Savoring the smell and taste can help you stop at just one cookie.
30. Have chunky soup. People who ate soup containing large vegetable pieces reported feeling fuller and ate 20 percent less during lunch than those who had a pureed soup made of the same ingredients.
31. Blot the fat. You can dab off about a teaspoon of oil--or 40 calories and 4.5 grams of fat--from two slices of pizza.
32. Skip "light" foods. The weight of food--not just the fat and calories--is what fills you up. Eat less and still feel satisfied with low-calorie heavyweights such as oranges, strawberries, grapefruit, cantaloupe, cooked spinach, collard greens, and broccoli.
33. Order fish. Varieties rich in omega-3 fatty acids--tuna, mackerel, cod, and salmon--may help you drop pounds by improving fat metabolism. Overweight people who ate a reduced-calorie diet that included fish every day lost about 20 percent more weight than those on a fish-free diet.
34. Post inspiration. To keep yourself on track, place quotes in strategic spots where you might need some motivation: on the fridge, TV, dashboard, or computer. Some suggestions: "You've come too far to take orders from a cookie." "Nothing tastes as good as thin feels."
35. Drink, drink, drink. Dehydration can slow your metabolism by 3 percent. At a weight of 150 pounds, that would be about 45 fewer calories burned a day--which could mean 5 extra pounds a year.

How to Deal with Flabby Skin

How to Deal with Flabby Skin

Let's imagine for a minute what a 30-pound garbage bag full of jelly sitting on the floor would look like. The jelly would expand to the outer limits of the bag and fill it entirely. Then, if you gradually removed a pound or two of jelly out of the bag each week, what would happen? The jelly would be gone, but most likely the bag would retain (at least in part) its previous jelly-filled shape.
The same thing happens to your skin after a significant weight loss. The fat that had built up around your trouble spots has caused your skin to take on a shape that may be hard to change. Your fat cells were essentially filled to capacity. Now that you've lost weight and eliminated the fat, all the cells have retained their shape, causing your skin to resemble the empty garbage bag on the floor.
This may seem discouraging, but just think, you've done a great job eliminating all that fat from your body. First, be proud of this accomplishment. Next, take some action to reduce that flabby skin. Here's how:
Build some muscle. Although "spot reducing" a flabby area is impossible, weight training can help you "spot train" in order to build muscle. Because muscle has a harder, more definite structure than fat, building yourself up may reduce the appearance of saggy skin, especially if you're young.
To maximize the benefits of weight training, train all of your major muscle groups; start with basic exercises for your buttocks, legs, chest, back, shoulders, arms, abs and lower back. There are a limitless number of exercises that build shapely muscles and help reduce the appearance of flabby skin. We recommend hiring a qualified personal trainer or "exercise specialist" to help you structure a program that will work best for you.
Tone your midsection. Many of us, especially women, have particular trouble with stretched-out skin around the middle. If you've had a kid or two, we don't have to tell you that! Targeting your abdominal muscles with a variety of crunches and other middle-body exercises on a regular basis can not only help tone your tummy but also reduce the appearance of flabby skin. We recommend doing 3-5 sets of 9-15 abdominal exercises at least twice a week. Remember: The key is intensity. In other words, perform each and every rep slowly, carefully and precisely so by the end of the set your abs feel worked.
Be realistic. As you age, your skin's elasticity weakens. If you've lost a great deal of weight after being out of shape for many years, your skin stretches. If you've been pregnant, the skin around your middle may not bounce back to its original shape. All of those factors, plus genetics, dictate how easily you will be able to tighten up loose skin with exercise. If exercise doesn't seem to be cutting it you may want to ...
Consider cosmetic surgery. In most instances we at Fit by Friday would not suggest, let alone endorse, cosmetic surgery to improve your appearance. However, if you have vast folds of loose skin because of considerable weight loss or because you're older, this is an option worth considering. For instance, some people who have lost several hundred pounds have had surgery to remove 25 pounds or more of excess skin. If you still have significant amounts of saggy skin even after several months of dedicated exercise, a consultation with a cosmetic surgeon may be your next step.

Mengapa 74kg?
Herm...mengapa 74 kg? Sedangkan berat badan ideal saya adalah lebih kecil dari itu....
Untuk menjadikan sasaran lebih realistik, kita hendaklah meletakkan target pengurangan dalam jumlah 10% daripada berat badan sekarang...dengan pengurangan 5-10% banyak perubahan yang boleh kita rasakan pada diri kita...
Contohnya, sebelum ini berat saya adalah 89kg dan sekarang adalah 82kg. saya kehilangan sebanyak 7 kg menjadikan peratusan kehilangan berat saya adalah 7.8% dari berat asal. Walaupun blm mencapai berat idaman, banyak juga perubahan yang dirasakan pada diri sendiri seperti kurangnya masalah kebas2 ditangan dan juga kitaran haid yang sudah kembali normal.
Mungkin dengan sasaran mengurangkan another 10% berat, akan lebih banyak perubahan positif yang akan dapat saya rasakan.
Sedikit-sedikit, lama-lama jadi bukit....insyaAllah....
Jom ramai2 mengurangkan 10% dari berat badan kita....
* sebagai permulaan;
menu hari ini
sarapan-shake
mkn thari - rojak ayam (berjaya tdk mengambil nasi :)
mlm - plan to have shake..
