Nestle Fitnesse 14 days Challenge: Part II

And so I am already half way through the challenge. . had a mixed feeling after completing the first seven day of the diet..I wasnt exercising on the first few days and i was always hungry all the time i ate  at least 5 servings of fruits everyday! I also ate yogurt and mixed vegetables which includes bits of chicken or seafood. But still, i was hungry all the time! The temptation to snack was so great  when i saw those cookies on the counter. dammitt ..and the tempation to give up was so severe and one point made me want to lose control but i persevered and stayed tough.   I didnt take any sugar and totally stopped snacking. I thought this diet is going to be a failure  when i weighed myself on Day 8 but guess what, i really did lose 1kg  when i weighed again on Day 10! :D

Feeling somewhat elated with my achievement i was a bit more motivated to persevere for another week and exercise more. So here goes Part II of my journey of the Nestle Fitnesse 14 day challenge.

Let us continue on where i have left off which is....

Day 8:
I weighed myself today but no decrease in weight yet :( What a disappointment but I  still want to continue and finish the challenge. Again woke up late on Sunday so had lunch of half plate nasi goreng with fried egg. Dinner was cereal with fruits and had 3 pieces of fried yong tow foo. Exercised for 45 minutes on the treadmill and bicycle.

Day 9:
Monday oh Monday..feeling a bit sleepy today so I decided to munch on the cereal instead rather than eating with milk and downed a bottle of magnolia Good Morning milk. Ate two types of fruits. Lunch was a plate of char kuey tiow. Dinner was cereal with milk and two spoonful of rice mixed with small pieces of chicken and vegetable in soya sauce. I also continued to exercise for about 30 minutes on the treadmill, did three reps of 10 push-ups and leg ups.

Day 10:

Five more days to go on the diet and I will be done by the end of this week.  Didnt get to do any exercise today apart from the usual morning routine and walked at least 4 blocks  from office during lunch. Breakfast: Again munched the cereal and then had a bottle of magnolia Good Morning milk. Ate three types of fruits. Lunch: Had rice with ikan pari assam, egg and vegetable. A balanced  meal i would say. Dinner: A bowl of cereal with milk and a bowl of vegetable with slices of chicken and seafood in soup.  I weighed myself again today and to my surprise i lost 1kg already! Im so happy with myself so im going to continue with my exercise routine tomorrow. for a trimmer me :)

Day 11:
Its wednesday and i thought Monday blues was over but i couldnt sleep properly last night  so today is a no mood day. haha Went back home to sleep during lunch so i wouldnt have to  mingle with anyone in this dazed mood. Breakfast is the usual combination of cereal and fruits.  Since i slept during lunch, i decided to have cereal with milk and a bowl of mixed veggies. Dinner was  a plate of rice with fish and ulam. Went for a  jog around the neighbourhood for half an hour  after work and  again did 3 sets of ten push ups and leg ups.

Day 12:
I cant wait to get off this diet already.  Its getting a bit mundane to eat cereal twice a day  but i have only 2 more days to go so i am just holding on..  Today breakfast as usual. Lunch was a plate of char keuytiow and shared banana fritters dessert. Dinner was  cereal with mlik and a bowl of mixed fried veggies. Didnt get to do any exercise today as i was hanging out at my friends place.

Day 13:
Yayyyyy second last day on the diet!  I am literally counting the days to have normal food again. To me breakfast with cereal in the morning is alright but the hardest bit was to eat it for lunch or dinner. Today was such a nice day and i woke up very refreshed.  and its Friday again!  Happy Friday! Cant wait for the weekends :)  started the day with the usual  breakfast routine.  Had an italian buffet for lunch but cant eat that much anymore. Dinner was cereal with milk and fruits. Exercise for about 40 minutes jogging around the neighbourhood.

Day 14
I've finally come to the last day of the diet and it was really challenging as i had an open house in the afternoon and engagement do in the evening.. Only  managed to eat cereal with milk in the morning and then after that was a whole lot of food - nasi with kari ikan and sambal sotong,fried meehun with sambal, agar2 santan,apple pie, mee tomato, red velvet cake, nasi minyak, tapioca pudding and merengues! Food galore haha! :D 
I managed to exercise on the bycicle for 40 minutes in the morning and then 40 minutes of swimming in the afternoon after eating the nasi.  All in all weight loss is only 1kg for the 14 day diet and BMI improved from 23.8 to about 23.3.Feeling a tad guilty i decided to continue on Sunday  with the cereal diet and then im done! woohoo! :)

So, in conclusion:

start weight: 55kg

end weight : 54kg

start BMI: 23.8

end BMI: 23.3

A slight improvement but i do feel a bit healthier. I think 1kg a week is a fair enough weight to lose if not it will be like a crash diet isnt it? But i gotta say that this diet is really difficult as it made me hungry all the time and its not that filling so sometimes like dizzy dizzy you know..From my experience, i dont think anyone can lose more than 1kg in 2 weeks time unless they go on a crash diet and go hungry all the time. If you see the sample they put in the website apparently this woman lost 3kgs in 2 weeks! i dont know if i can believe that but i've tried and tested and this is the result that i got.

Anyways, on a more positive note, i shall keep on my daily routine of not using the lift and climbing the stairs everyday and exercise at least 40 minutes a day. Also, eating fruits in the morning is really refreshing so apart from eliminating cereal from two of my main meal (im still having cereal for breakfast) everything else shall remain as it is. Let's live a healthier life everyone! :)
