How Often Do You Need to Change Your Workout to Get Results?
By switching different exercise variables, you can avoid hitting a strength plateau without having to continuously add more weight and time to your workouts. Try changing two to four variables each week: weight, sets, reps, rest times.
Lunch @ 11am
Bowl of plain congee with kumara and vegetables.
Dinner @ 6.30pm
Bowl of noodles with vegetables. Small pot of raspberry yogurt. Watermelon and peach.
How was it a lovely day? When I weighed myself this morning it turns out I’m a whole kg lighter than yesterday. Although after lunch I did go back to the same weight as yesterday. Still happy though!
Breakfast @ 8am
Pork bun.
Lunch @ 11.30am
Calzone (ham and vegetables) and Japanese Lime green tea.
Afternoon Tea @ 3pm
Bowl of carrots and spare ribs soup. Cracker.
Dinner @ 6pm
Red rice with vegetables. Slice of peach. Cracker.
The last annoying essay assignment of my summer school. All these influx of essay load has taken the time away from exercising. :( I could only try to walk more stairs. Alas, this last one is due in tomorrow!

25 Ways to Cut 500 Calories a Day:
Tap your foot

100g soy yogurt.

Weight Loss Tip of the Day
Dr. Oz’s 10 Commandments for Weight Loss:
Thou Shall Not Wear Pants That Stretch
When you wear stretchy clothes, it’s difficult to tell if you are gaining weight because you gain weight without realizing it. When you wear clothes that fit with a set size you let clothes be your gauge. They alert your body if something is getting a little tight so you can correct the course early on.
Breaching this rule previously made me pay big bucks. I had not worn my tight jeans for a couple of months. When I tried wearing them again, I couldn’t fit at all. 1 whole year later, I’m still trying to lose the weight I gained to fit them again.
Breakfast @ 8am
Watermelon. 100g soy yogurt.
Morning Tea @ 10am
Handful of raw almonds and raisins.
Lunch @ 12pm
Beef and egg sandwich, also has tomatoes and lettuce.
Afternoon Tea @ 2pm
~10 raw almonds and raisins.
Wii @ 5.15pm
45 minutes Just Dance 2.
Dinner @ 6pm
Watermelon. Peach. Bowl of vegetarian rice noodles.
Snack @ 9.30pm
Handful of raw almonds and raisins.
I think I’m going to give up on the many meals plan for losing weight. It’s making me nibble on more snacks and I’m not really eating any less during the main meals.
