Intermittent Fasting and Hopefully A New Me
Thursday, May 16, 2019
Just wanna put my latest picture to remind myself that being healthy and happy is most important. Lol. So recently especially after my holiday to Japan, I’ve been getting soooo many comments on, like if I’m expecting No3 but really, it’s A FOOD BELLY! <insert crying emoji> 😭
But hey really, what is intermittent fasting?
By far, the EASIEST thing that I’ve ever done. Not much food restriction, can drink alcohol and I get to drink all my favorite black tea and green tea (just no sugar and please no Pokka k or bubble tea yo!)
I’ve been doing it close to 2 weeks and although I should add some exercise (haha) to my fitness regime >> I think to myself ~ ok woah, every SMALL step is a victory to me k. Lol. Soon soon ya. I will get back to yoga. Lololol.
Ok back to #IF. It’s basically just a type of schedule where I stop food and alcohol intake say, 8pm and carry on til the next day. This is one of the most popular Intermitted Fasting plans aka 16/8.
A typical “good” meal but truthfully.. though I watch what I eat now I do indulge in some carbs (love my carbs) and sweets like cookies and my favorite chocolate. The key point.. moderation, guys!!! Also. I stop all meals at 8pm so this cut off really works and I realize how much clearer my mind feels. The mental clarity is AMAZINGGG. No more food coma! Or feeling sluggish!
My 8 hour daily eating window starts from 12-8pm. I usually have lunch and dinner and even a small snack if I’m feeling peckish - but now I dun have much cravings and get satisfied with a handful of nuts or just 2 cookies etc. I hydrate myself with so MUCH WATER. When I feel hungry, I drink water. When I am hungry. I drink water. When I’m about to have a meal. What’s the answer? Smart la you. I drink water. 🤗 The best part is that I dun feel deprived at all! Heck, I had bubbly and truffle fries just yesterday for teatime! Why not? 😂
Didi had a field day helping himself to my truffle fries right after this picture ok.😅😅😅
I’m not really concerned by the kilos on my weighing scale, but feeling better about myself is my primary goal! Hopefully I incalculate better eating habits (like, no more supper lol) and end 2019 on a happier, healthier note 💕 Anyone tried it? Would love to hear from you!
