So far I like granola bars and frozen meals. Must buy them at least once a month :D. As for others, I rarely eat them because it's HIGHLY addictive. I can finish 1 box of cereals in 1 day. Shame shame kan wahahaha.

P/S: This is only a guide. I believe eating moderately is the key here. Excessive eating is never good.

Restocking Herbalife and...

I'm waiting for my HL's. Order sikit2, out of budget! Probably will get it by end of this week. Meanwhile, I'm fasting tomorrow and hopefully the day after. Then I'm done with paying my puasa for this year.

I'll get this blog running once I'll receive all of my orders. Mau juga kan... Betebiat.

Hubby is encouraging me to weight train again since he just dropped 4kgs in a week by just weight training for 3 or 4 hours like 5 times a week! Come on, having a trainer is a plus. Doing it yourself(weight training at home) needs more hard work. Probably during Syawal? Muahahaha...

Also Enchek Han(ze trainer) said that our stomach is a muscle itself. Eating real food is like exercising our stomach. He doesn't encourage taking liquid diet for a long period of time because then our stomach doesn't get the required exercise it needs. It can affect your metabolism too(slowing it down) That's what I can rememberlah my hubby told me.

Hubby told me this because he actually wanted to go on a liquid diet eating replacement meals and whey protein during this coming Ramadhan but instead was told to eat a little bit of both... and guess what? His menu is as the same as the Herbalife Fasting Menu. :)

Less Water Lowers Metabolism


Know your water! This is just a small info on water. I'd like to share it with you all. Don't forget to drink 2L-3L water perday!

1. 75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated. (Likely applies to half the world population)

2. In 37% of Americans, the thirst mechanism is so weak that it is mistaken for hunger.

3. Even MILD dehydration will slow down one's metabolism as much as 3%.

4. One glass of water shut down midnight hunger pangs for almost 100% of the dieters studied in a University of Washington study.

5. Lack of water, the #1 trigger of daytime fatigue.

6. Preliminary research indicates that 8-10 glasses of water a day could significantly ease back and joint pain for up to 80% of sufferers.

7. A mere 2% drop in body water can trigger fuzzy short-term memory, trouble with basic math, and difficulty focusing on the computer screen or on a printed page.

8. Drinking 5 glasses of water daily decreases the risk of colon cancer by 45%, plus it can slash the risk of breast cancer by 79%., and one is 50% less likely to develop bladder cancer.

Are you drinking the amount of water you should drink every day?
