I am no dietician but i can be of great assistance to you. For a start your BMI is off the hook. Are you a male or female?

I will ask you some questions to kickstart this interesting journey of yours.

How is your regular diet like?
How many times do you eat in a day?
Are you in love with junk foods?
How often do you eat fruits and vegetables?
Are you sedentary or physically active?
How often do you exercise?
Do you take alcohol(beer) regularly?
How is your sleep pattern like?

I need your answers to this questions.

When you say you want to loose bodyfats fast, you make laff. Did you gain that fat fast or overnight? The answer is obviously no. So how then do you want to loose that fat fast. Please and please erase that thinking from your mind. Don't even think of weightloss pills, they can be very toxic.

I want you to know that fatloss takes a lifelong approach which if adopted is very effective and sustainable.

Now back to the meat of the matter, you talk about making food your main hobby during hols. Fatgain occurs when your calories input(foods ingested) far exceeds your calorie output(expended).

1. You have to reduce your portion size(the size of food consumed per time)

2. You must increase your protein intake. Protein here should include beans,lean meats, chicken or turkey without its skin, eggwhites,fish(no catfish:contains unhealthy fats). You could eat titus, salmon, sardine.

3. Increse your fibre intake. Vegetables contain fibre. Akwa-ibom is blessed with rich soup. When i was in akwa-ibom, una nearly use good soup kill me. Mehn.

4. Reduce your consumption of white carbs like white rice,white flour etc. Go for our native rice like ofada, brown rice. You can eat sweet potatoes(boiled and not fried)


5. Increase your daily activities, avoid sedentary lifestyles. Most especially sitting down on the couch and watching season films is not that good most especially if done on a daily basis. Increase your cardios like jogging, briskwalking, playing soccer.


5. Please drink water very well, avoid sugary drinks because they contain empty calories including fruit juice(those ones in pack).
