Valentine Day Dinner

Purple Cauliflower

Stepping into 2009

Haven't visited and didn't dare to visit my weight loss doctor for a while cos there has been no more weight loss and might be some gain due to the holiday feasts and wine. However, got a flu on Jan. 2 with sore throat, fever, diarhea, stomach cramp and vomit. The good thing is I lost what I have gained during the X'mas & New Year holiday. Hope to continue to lose until I reach the ideal weight decided by my doctor which is about 113lb.

Weight Loss Journey

8lb lost in 6 weeks. I haven't been following Dr. Poon's diet strictly by still drinking wine during weekends. Otherwise I could have lost more than 15 lbs. 不過，淨係准食肉（包括魚）同菜真係好辛苦。連麥皮，麥包同全麥意粉或飯都唔得。生果芝士又唔得。菜只係有葉既菜。其它如根部既菜或高澱粉質既西蘭花，椰菜花甚至豆類豆腐都唔得。日日早餐都係食蛋白同凍肉，悶到嘔。真係好辛苦，無乜選擇。Dr. Poon says although I do not weigh much, my body fat % is still high (33.2%). I still need to lose 8.6 lbs to reach 112.8lb. in order to reach a target Body Fat % of 28%. 努力！加油！
