Hi! I started a vegan diet on September 14, 2020. I ate a lot of vegan junk food. I want to eat whole foods plant based and lose about 10% of my body weight. I was 47kg but I am now 46kg and stalled since the beginning of October due to eating a lot of refined carbs. I want to reach my goal weight of 42kg by the New Year. oh yeah and my height is 143cm(stupid genetics TT).

 

I made a very detailed eating plan in my notes app. It's super long because I wrote actual steps to fix bad eating habits and what foods to eat or not, so to summarize it is just eat fruits, vegetables, beans, grains, and flax/chia seed. No other overt fats like nuts, seeds, oils, coconut products, chocolate,no refined carbs and proccessed food. Do not eat after 6pm. These are the bad habits I am trying to fix that lead to weight gain.

 

Bad habits that lead to weight gain:

-Large portions 

-Eating too fast 

-Multitasking/watching TV/computer while eating 

-Eating too much on the weekends

-Sedentary

-Eating refined carbs/refined fats

-Going to bed late

 

I made a workout routine as well. 

Try to get 10K+ steps daily and stretch when you wake up & before bed. Ride the stationary bike for 30 min on Sun,Tue,Thur,Fri, Sat @ 6pm. Do ab & arm workouts on Sun, Tue, Thur @ 6:30pm for 15 min. Do lower body exercises on Fri and Sat at 6:30pm.

 

I'm incorporating intermittent fasting into this plan as well. I'm eating two meals a day five days a week(900-1200 calories), and fasting 24 hours twice a week(usually mondays and wednesdays) breaking the fast with one meal. 

 

Wish me luck! I hope I reach my goal.

I was really busy and fasted 20 hours even though my goal was 16. Thats good!
Today for breakfast I ate

1 small bowl of quinoa with soy milk and an apple.

I skipped lunch because my breakfast was at 1pm haha.

Dinner was cabbage, broccoli, asparagus, 1 cup of chickpeas, and 200g of korean sweet potato. 

 

Total calories ~1050.

 

I did 1 hour of cardio I managed to squeeze in my busy day.

[Konachan]

Today I am 44.5kg. I fasted 24 hours and sticked to my plan of what I'll eat. I only lost 100g? I expected more than that because I also dry fasted and did not water until I ate. Anyways, this morning I am going to eat for breakfast a smoothie and for dinner just vegetables beans and black rice. When I weigh those contents on my food scale, I'll update the total calories of the day.

[Konachan]

Okay so my breakfast today was a smoothie. It was so good I might make it again. It was made out of frozen banana, pear, soy milk, chia seed, and green barley leaf powder. 
 

I ate some healthy popcorn for lunch.

 

For dinner I will have vegetables, beans, and black rice.

 

The total calories is about 1200.

I will update what I will eat for dinner.

[Konachan]

Yes last night I reached 20,000 steps. I don't want to  weigh myself today. I am getting too obsessed with the numbers. I will just weigh myself once a week on Fridays. So next time I weigh myself will be next Friday, the 20th. 

[Konachan]

Sorry, I had a 4 page essay yesterday so I couldn't update.

 

Good morning everyone! I think I'm going to start doing more HIIT. This morning I did not have time to exercise for an hour so I did HIIT for 10 minutes and I am sweating! I also read about the benefits of HIIT so I think I will do that if I am busy with school and can't find time to exercise. I have a test coming up so I can't fast today but I will make sure I fast tomorrow and do OMAD.

[Konachan]

I'm about to eat a bowl of oatmeal for breakfast with fruit and soy milk. It's about 300 calories

[Konachan]

For dinner I ate split peas, rice, and some vegetables. Total calories is 458.
