Hi all,

Just wondering anyone here tried the new Genki slimming tea? The recent frequent commercial on tv.."Wo you yuen xi! Bu zai fan nao..."

Care to tell me if it works if you tried.

And about atkins diet: it keeps saying eat meat, vege n fruits only and No CarbS... Is it true? I need real stories from SingaporEaNs.~~

Thanks!

actually hor....

it's best to maintain a balanced diet..try not to miss anything...

u might want to try havin either protein or carb for a meal..dun mix both...

tt works =)

protein gets absorbs faster than carbs cos the body needs the proteins for muscles n tissue buildin n repairin n all tt...

U need carbs... no carb is unhealthy... u need carbs for ur brain and for energy. Carbs are ur main source of energy for body loh. Basically, keep a low carb diet, but once in a while still can eat fried chickens. Too much protein can cause kidney failure and u can also gain weight. I forgot what amount of protein u cannot exceed but u can find the info on the net or health mag.

U can still eat MEAT! Don't eat red meat loh... in fact lean chicken meat is a good source of protein and somemore no carbs or low carbs. Eat balance meal. Long-term having atikin meal isn't actually healthy. The diet meal is still being questioned by some scientist. Some believe it's bad for heart ETC.

icic ~~ usually i just have a low carbs n less meat diet but i do consume both of them. So i want to know how many ppl out there is following any diets(Atkins eg.) to lose weight ..

Anyone heard of slim-fast shakes and stuff? seems that it works but kind of expensive to maintain in Singapore. If in USA, probably much cheaper in a way. Anyone any comments on Slim-fast or Ensure?

shinta SG

i dun follow....cos i'ma firm believer of...neng chi jiu shi fu~

my ex does this tho, tt's wat he claims...i only noe that he takes in a small bowl of rice, with soup loads of veggies n meat...according to him, one doesn need that much carbs for dinner cos u're awake for juz another 2-6 hours

if u wanna keep a veggie diet, make sure u dun stop it, cos according to him, ur intestines will get longer in order to digest all those veggies...so when u go back to takin meat, the stuff gets absorbed more... =p how true this is, i'm not sure...

one helpful tip: try to eat b4 6, cos u still have quite a few hours to go b4 u slp, so more calories get digested

try to slp b4 9 or 11 for those who are below 21 years old....cos the metabolism rate of the body is at its highest frm 1-3 or 11-1...i can't remember the time...

miwa SG

wow....ur methods / recommendations seems conflicting..heehee.... so which one is better ? Carbs (none or little), Atkins, Slim-Fast, Ensure.. Any Singaporeans tried any meal replacement products from GNC , such as ScanDiet, Total Lean MRP? But i just called them to find out , they said Scandiet wont be coming in to Singapore anymre....seeshhh...~~~~

today i gonna try out my first slim-fast shake~~creamy chocolate .... 220 calories... Just that for my lunch later.... =)
