Haaaaa! 12g of sugar per 100ml serving? Mba, I don't agree with you on this one jare.

Oya wait, make I go snap pic of my milk...

My dear your laptop is next to you,use google and see for yourself.I have a very good source

Skim Milk is not healthier. You need whole fats to absorb fat soluble vitamins like A and D. Also consuming whole fats does not raise your cholesterol that is more due to sugar and other bad fats that cause inflammation in the arterial lining.

Skim milk may be good if you are losing weight, but not as healthy. Buttermilk is much more healthy, if you can stand the taste, far less lactose and contains probiotics.

When others are eating lentil and sausage. Mine is with roasted fish

Dear,

Dietary guidelines around the globe suggest we LIMIT consumption of sugar and foods with added sugars. You don't need to avoid sugar completely for good health, but it's sensible to cut back on foods that are correspondingly low in nutrition and easy to overeat – soft drinks, lollies, pastries or sweets, for example.

The sugar found in fruit depends on the individual fruit and can be made up of multiple different sugars -- glucose, fructose and/or sucrose. Although the sugars found in fruit are the same as those in refined sugar, their absorption depends on their chemical and plant structures, food processing and food preparation. As a result, fruit and refined sugar have very different effects in the body.

Sweetheart the difference is in the digestion process,Fruit is very fiber-rich making its absorption different than that of refined sugars.

we are saying the same thing. I even agreed with you

I said the sugar found in a tablespoon of refined sugar (fructose)is the same concentration as the sugar in a whole banana.
Yes, the body absorbs refined sugar faster. That's why a little goes a long way.

BABE3:


efe, 5 fruits a day is less than 15g. Trust me.

Okay. That's good to know.

Chillisauce:

Efe eats like 30 different fruits .
Have you seen her plate?
I struggle with 2.
I still sprinkle sugar on my strawberry. Very bitter thing

Chilli you don start again. 30 fruits?

I don't think even aliens can manage that much.

Thank you

Chillisauce is fine na. She's a fitness guru so shes allowed. One cube is not even up to a teaspoon, that's like 2grams.
Let chillisauce be great.

as time goes on, that one cube will turn to no cube at all. Baby steps.

That's is why i told her to use granulated white sugar or brown.She won't have to give up on sugar with that.

I know chilli system will trash it

I use my sugar in coffee or oat

babyboom:


Nice. Am following you, need to hit my target of 65kg also
Though no time for exercise but the little walks I do daily, will,have to suffice for now
Hmmm, do u have a target date to hit the mark?

Thanks.

Nope, no target dates for me. I'm not in a rush. I've been on my weight loss journey for just a little over 3 years now, and I think I've got maybe a year or so to get to where I want to be.

Also bear in mind that the recommended, safe amount of weight to lose per week is 2-4lbs. I know the bigger you are, the easier it is to drop a whole lot more, but as you get smaller, it gets more difficult. Anyway, like I mentioned to you earlier, avoid crash dieting. It's a short term solution that's not sustainable and you will put on even more weight than before when you start eating again.

That aside, there is the danger of getting loose, flabby skin if you lose too much too soon. That's why incorporating a healthy diet and sustainable, continuous exercise is important. But always remember to drink lots and lots of water. It not only helps to hydrate your skin, but it helps your skin "snap" back into shape. This is one of the reasons why I now avoid coffee like never before. (I still miss it though).

BABE3:
Amount of fructose in 100g of different fruits.

According to this chart, 4 bananas is less than 15g of fructose.
You have to eat 30 strawberries or more to go over the daily 15g.

Efe do you eat 30 strawberries a day?

the fructose in most veggies are negligible since most of them are bitter.

Don't mind Chillisauce jare. I don't even like strawberries. Can't stand them. But all of my kids do.

I've got to admit though, that I like, and do eat 10 of the fruits on that list of yours (but not all at once sha)...

I prefer strawberry yourghurt instead. And in my sinful days (of past), a Mac Donald's strawberry milkshake wasn't such a bad idea to me then...

Abeg, I'm sticking to skimmed milk.

I still have cans of condensed Peak / Carnation milk in my cupboards for perhaps, someday in the future...

Ahaha!! Babe3, I don't think I even half qualify to be called zealous na. You're totally unreachable when it comes to exercising. Shebi you handle all of that crazy Jillian M's abs workouts without any sweat? I remember you mentioned doing the HIIT thingy too...

Abeg, you're on a completely different class jare.

Mo'farah has got nothing on you. How's that not being zealous? you're good.

anyways, I've been working my árse off for a while now, so I'm having two cheat days.. today and tomorrow. Anything goes. First stop is deep fried country-style chicken.

Ladies, I encourage cheat days. It keeps you sane (for lack of a better word).

Seriously, my journey started mid February. I have had my weight stable since I was 18yrs. After birth I snapped back after 3months.

I watch what I eat and do little or no exercise.

This yr was different as I needed 6 packs and would like to see how I will look dropping weight.
I look and feel different.
My asset assess looks smaller but very firm now.
Or getting very firm.

My thighs too.
enough collar bone

Lol! Very funny. Mo'farah is a seasoned, Olympic runner jare.

Cheat days? I nor do again. After putting on 0.2kg with my romance with Agege bread and peanut butter last night. Speaking of which, is peanut butter really that bad? The tin reads 50g of fat per 100g (I know) but it's from peanuts na, isn't it?

peanut butter? I don't like it.

Edwife Is peanut butter bad?

The fat in peanut butter is about 50% monounsaturated and 20% saturated. The rest of it (about 30%) is polyunsaturated fat, mostly the Omega-6 fatty acid linoleic acid, which can be problematic.

But it is fairly nutritious,so a little spread in the bread is not bad.
