How to get rid of my tummy?
-
if its just tummy you want to get rid of. no 6 pac in mind, just jog every now and then. alt days would be best. not enough stamina? no problem. fartleks would help to boost em.
watch your diet too. one prata kosong you eat at a prata place = 2 rounds of the track = 800m.
good luck with your training
i would still prefer you ask people from pumping iron for more advises. guess they will be more experienced with this problems. -
Jogging alone is not enough. Jogging might be effective only if the person is on the plump side.

not avisable to skip meals for lunch.Originally posted by Agenda:It's very easy to lose 1 kg per week.. I've done it before.. It took me about 13 weeks I think.. I lost 12kg from 87kg
Breakfast eat at home, mostly 2 bread and 1 cup of milo.. recess i eat 1 egg bread or fruits or even skip it.. in the afternoon don't eat.. maybe snack a little back
night time i share a packet of hor fun or those seafood restaurant food with my sister
i did 100 sit-ups, 100 push-ups everyday and 3 to 4 times every week of 2km jogging
If it helps any, take 1 or 2 digestive biscuit before your jog.. NTUC sells for less than $5
at the start of the day - have an healthy breakfast - creals, milk; porridge , yu tiao & tea
tea break - slightly a bit of small little items like fruits or anything healthy
lunch also MUST eat, but eat those organic food (preferbably) ask for less oil and other less of (unhealthy stuff - depending on what food you order)
tea break eat again - maybe biscuits and a cup of milo or tea - don't use coffee (it will stain the organs inside our body thus with the layer of coating, our organs can't absorb the nutrients and vitamins that we have taken in)
dinner - eat slightly lesser - you don't want to have a bloated stomach and go to sleep.
when a person has a bloated stomach, the person can be sleeping, but the organs are not resting nor doing what they should do (self-detox for both kidney and liver at certain FIXED time of in late mid-night)
so the order should be
breakfast - eat the most
so that you have enough energy to kick-start your day
lunch - moderate amount
dinner - slightly lesser than moderate
in between tea-breaks just have some healthy food to pop inside your mouth for stomach to not feel hungry so you can concentrate better.

Why skipping meal is not avisable
when you skip meal (most often it's those who wants cheap and fast way to lose weight FAST) often use this method.
it's a wrong method.
why - when we don't consume anything, our body still needs nutrients and vitamins to function (if not we will have no strength etc) than if we skip lunch, we our are VERY SMART - they will take the nutrients from our muscles [because it's the source of proteins and other vitamins etc] followed by calories from our body fat (maybe just a few percent)
that's the reason why when people skip MEALS, they lose weight VERY FAST, but often those that 'successfully' lose weight will appear to be weak, green/white sickly face compared to a healthy blood flowing slight red face
Muscles - it's like metal, which is very heavy yet taking up little volume [we can lose weight on the scale but see no physical changes in our body shape]
FATS - it's like feathers, take up a lot of volume, but super light in weight. [we can see a very obvious physical change in body shape but little changes in the weight]
which one do you all want?
Physical Changes or just Scale Changes
OR BOTH changes?
(those who are interested in knowing more about slimming, can just let me know, since my friends have tried a lot of ways to lose weight/change their physical appearance - but end up in failure, so i might be able to share with you people on what to avoid.)
so while we lose weight, make sure that we lose the correct stuff, and not the muscles that we need to keep our body functioning. -
it's good to do sit-ups BUT don't one shot do up to 200 sit-ups (for those who don't exercise at all)Originally posted by X-men:Control diet, jog and at least 200 sit ups a day
slowly increase your number of sit-ups to the number you want, make sure it's on a regular increase per day, not sharp increase, since our body needs time to adapt to the changes of exercise as well if not we will end up having cramps, muscle-aching here and there for the whole week.
[we certainly don't want to suffer a whole week of pain just because we are greedy in seeing results]
my way of seeing results is for the long term, not short term so do it slowly. -
shldnt we avoid 'you tiao' when you are trying to lose weight?Originally posted by the_fallen:at the start of the day - have an healthy breakfast - creals, milk; porridge , yu tiao & tea -
i would say crunches would be more effective than sit-ups, and doing sit-ups may hurt ur back. However doing crunches/sit-ups would not help get rid of your tummy it only tones up ur abdomen muscles, so in order to get rid of fats you have to do cardio exercises like jogging/swimming these exercises would burn your overall body fats thus helps to get rid of your belly fats.Originally posted by mystee:if u just want to get rid of ur tummy, do sit up every nite... at least 50 times straight.. -
there is no such thing as reducing the fats in one portion of the body only. if you wanna lose that tummy you should expect to lose fats from other parts of your body.

I remember I did 40 crunches after I woke up. 40 crunches in the noon and 40 more before I sleep. Do it daily and can see cutting liao... but can't say much about the fat losing part...

'Fats losing' and 'cutting' are 2 different things...Originally posted by Bontakun:I remember I did 40 crunches after I woke up. 40 crunches in the noon and 40 more before I sleep. Do it daily and can see cutting liao... but can't say much about the fat losing part... -
it's a subjective question with answer.Originally posted by huiz:shldnt we avoid 'you tiao' when you are trying to lose weight?
you tiao is a tradditional chinese breakfast that's being passed down for generations.
i guess that you're concered about the oily part.
it depends on what type of oil that the seller use to fry the you tiao.
if the oil is in Brown or DARK Brown [regardless of whatever healthy/un-healthy] if not BLACK, than DON'T EVEN BUY from that stall unless the boss change the oil.
those oil which have being used til brown, the chemical properties in the oil is already deem as WASTE. So when you purchase any deep-fried food in future, make sure to take a look at the oil colour first.
dark color oil are some how related to the cause of cancer diseases.
those who wants to know more, can go to NewsPaper stand and buy a copy of the Chinese Singapore Health Newspaper @ $1.
I can't recall the exact issue, but it should be either this month's issue - cover page picture of butterfly if not than it should be from the previous month. -
but to me, black oil or yellow oil, it is still oil to me that will make one put on weight if you dont burn off the extra calories. just that black oil is more carcinogenic which is another issue. even if the seller use yellow fresh oil, you will still gain the extra calories.Originally posted by the_fallen:it's a subjective question with answer.

Some said can lose fat by doing stomach exercise leh... I show them my proof it dun work on me.Originally posted by Devil1976:'Fats losing' and 'cutting' are 2 different things...
Key word: doesn't work on ME. Meaning it MIGHT work on you.

actually, firstly are you a guy or a girl.
for what reasons do you want to slim down?
if its just getting rid of tt belly of yours. jog/swim and watch your diet.
if its the abs that you're looking for, do workout every now and then. advisable 3 times a week if you've the time and discipline. trying to slim down is something not easy to achieve. it requires loads of discipline and determination. it would be better if you have a partner to journey with you in your "how to get rid of tummy" journey.
good luck -
Regular jogging or brisk walking would stimulate your bowels to evacuate. The exercise also burns callories and the fat lining your instestines are the first to go. It will also strengthen your abs and keep your belly in.
Regular jogging or brisk walking is the minimum you need to do. -
like i've said in earlier post, it's a subjective Q&A - so it's based on the individual's value of how important HEALTH is to them personally.Originally posted by huiz:but to me, black oil or yellow oil, it is still oil to me that will make one put on weight if you dont burn off the extra calories. just that black oil is more carcinogenic which is another issue. even if the seller use yellow fresh oil, you will still gain the extra calories.
Black/Brown Oil can cause cancer.
Having just a few extra calories is okay, but if the calories can also cause cancer, than it's not smart to purchase it (unless the person is looking forward to a cut short their lives)
Calories can be burnt off easily [with determination]
but cancer cells cost a bomb to be killed by hospital medical bills which cost up to 5-digits.
This is subjective. To each individual, they have their own opinion, so i'm just saying what i know, as advice or word of caution [to those who are Health-Concious] -
No beer, better no food after dinner or 8pm onwards. Do situp.

i think what he just mean is that if you can skip tt extra calories intake why not? but well to each his own.Originally posted by the_fallen:like i've said in earlier post, it's a subjective Q&A - so it's based on the individual's value of how important HEALTH is to them personally.
