I just lost 10lbs in about 1.5 month. 20 more lbs to go!
What I did was cardio about 4-5 times a day, strength training, watch what I eat (I still ate junk food and sweets maybe once a week) and I figured that controlling your portions is more important that what you choose to eat... and also remember to 少食多餐... (even if I eat healthy but eat a LOT all at once, I'd still gain weight) 千祈唔好一飽一餓, count approx. daily calorie intake and try to not go over 1500, don't eat late at night, maintain a normal sleeping schedule...

- cardio exercise 5 days a week
- resistance training (with resistance band) 3 days a week as muscle constantly burns energy
- have small but frequent meals, while total amount of food intake is less
- veggie and/or fruit throughout the day
- unsaturated fat over saturated fat cuz our body needs fat

make incremental small adjustments that can be maintained for life =)

Hey ladies: to lose weight, you must not skip breakfast 'cos or else you'll be hungry and will overeat later in the day. I recently (since last week) started to eat the "K" brand multi grain cereal with vanilla flavored yogurt for breakfast. It's very yummy (not dry or tasteless). I find that I am not hungry until lunch time. Previously, I have a piece of brown toast with a cup of yogurt + coffee and my stomach will be making noises at 11am. I'd either be snacking or thinking about lunch at that time. But with cereal, my tummy does not make noise at 11. So I've snacked less and I find that my tummy has gotten flatter! By the same token, eating more fiber should work, too.

I think the diet should be long term and sustainable. I love food too much to give up everything I like (or else life will become meaningless...) ;) I'd rather try to have 30-60 mins of exercise each day, each more frequent but smaller portions, drink more water, don't eat before bed time....etc. to build a heavier life style than to stop eating in order to shed some pounds.
