Health Tips : Lean Grocery & 2 Ingredients Banana Ice-cream

如果你有看我上一則健康信息的話（點這裡），相信你已經大概了解如何進行健康的減肥方式

Ok, if you read my previous health tips (here), you will have a rough idea on how to lose weight in a healthy way.

很多人都好奇我是怎麼甩掉10公斤的，我從來都不吃減肥藥，除了副作用不說，減肥藥復胖的機率非常高。對我而言，享“瘦”的不二法門永遠都是改變不良的飲食習慣

And yes, I lost 10kg by just eating healthy and having regular exercise, so please do not expect me to recommend any slimming product lol.

所以今天呢，我將會分享的是『如何避開垃圾食品』

You are what you eat ; so today I am going to share with you how to avoid junk food especially in the midnight when you are looking for supper lol.

方式只有一個，非常簡單也很容易完成，那就是把健康的食物填滿你的廚房！

It's very easy, just clean up your kitchen and replace those junk food with the list below :)

(I have a grocery list for all of you, just save it in your phone and shop according to the list)

什麼千島醬啊，番茄醬啊，都得扔掉！還記得我上一篇說的嗎？醬汁是最可怕的無形殺手！
天然的醬汁就是最好的調味品，例如橄欖油加黑醋，或者蜜糖加芥末醬

Please throw away your thousand island sauce or ketchup, they are really bad for you, not only high in calories and also high in bad fats

Replace them with olive oil + balsamic vinegar or natural honey mustard would be great!

R.I.B Kitchen : Japanese style Hot Spring Eggs

For people who always consider on loosing weight like me, eating more eggs is a fantastic way to health boost.

4 Reasons to eat eggs

• Get your vitamins : Vitamin B2, Vitamin B12, Vitamin A, and Vitamin E.

• Boost your weight loss

For those who think of eggs as "fattening" or "unhealthy" - a study carried out by the Rochester Center for Obesity Research found that eating eggs for breakfast helps limit the calories intake by more than 400 calories a day. That means you could lose 1kg or more per month. Although eggs contain choleterol, they are "dietary cholesterol", different from the "blood cholesterol". Despite the health recommendations of the past, there's no evidence that eating eggs will increase your blood cholesterol level.

• Take in essential minerals : Iron (Important for women), Zinc and Phosphorus.

• Prevent breast cancer

(From Google)

Research by Harvard University in 2003 found that eating eggs as an adolescent could help prevent breast cancer as an adult. In 2005, another study showed that women eating at least six eggs per week had a 44 percent lower risk of developing breast cancer than women who ate two or fewer eggs each week.

In April 2008, researchers from the University of North Carolina found that choline (present in egg yolks) can reduce the risk of breast cancer by 24 percent. An egg yolk contains 125.5 milligrams of choline, about a quarter of the recommended daily intake, so just two poached eggs for breakfast provides half your choline for the day.

Today, I am going to show you how to cook Hot Spring Eggs!

Ingredients:

Eggs! As many as you like

For the sauce (for 2-3 eggs)

- 1 cup water

- Half cup soy sauce

- 1 tbsp Sao Xing 

- 1 tbsp honey

- 1 tbsp oyster sauce

- 2 gloves garlic

Prepare a bowl of ice water

How to :

Cook the eggs for 5 minutes in boiling water (Only putting the eggs when the water is boiling!)

Cook the sauce with medium heat until you smell something lol, around 3-5 minutes

Soak the eggs into the ice water to stop them from cooking

Crack and peel the shells off la, but be careful, don't hit the eggs too hard

Wrap them like this with the sauce for 3 hours

After 3 hours of soaking, tadaa!

Jeng jeng!

They taste really nice!

Daily routine - Oatmeal

I joined gym since I was 20

You can hardly see muscles on me but yes, I do work out quite often lol

Friends and colleagues around me always curious about what I eat for breakfast because I seldom join them for breakfast in the morning

For me, breakfast is the most important meal of the day so I always keep my stomach for the best food

and

This is one of my favourite meal to have in the morning or have it as my supper

- Oatmeal with any natural topping -

p/s : don't add any sugar to your oatmeal if you want to have flat belly! You can replace sugar with honey

Usually I add almonds, raisins and chia seeds to my fav oatmeal

There are a lot of benefits in these tiny seeds!

such as :

Combat Diabetes

Chia is being studied as a potential natural treatment for type-2 diabetes because of its ability to slow down digestion. The gelatinous coating chia seeds develops when exposed to liquids-can also prevent blood sugar spikes.

More fibre
Just a 28-gram or one-ounce serving of chia has 11 grams of dietary fibre — about a third of the recommended daily intake for adults. Adding some chia to your diet is an easy way to make sure you're getting a good amount of fibre, which is important for digestive health.

Omega-3
Chia seeds are packed with omega-3 fatty acids, with nearly five grams in a one-ounce serving. These fats are important for brain health. 

Stronger teeth and bones
A serving of chia seeds has 18 per cent of the recommended daily intake for calcium

Fight belly fats
Chia's stabilizing effect on blood sugar also fights insulin resistance which can be tied to an increase in belly fat, according to Live Strong. This type of resistance can also be harmful for your overall health.

Raisins give natural sweetness to my oatmeal as I don't add any sugar into it 

More raisin! More!!

My body currently.
It's not skinny but I am happy with it
Going for my new goal which is mermaid line!
Will update my progress here, stay tuned!
