Go away fats! Shoo...Shoo...!

Alright, lets talk abit about losing weight cause I had gained about few kg by staying at home for few month. Haiz! I guess it might be due to lack of exercise cause I had reduce my food intake for quite a while, but I still gain weight. Hmmm..why oh why???

Anyway,I was watching tv and there's Dr Oz show talking about weight loss. It was an interesting and educational episode as I'm able to learn a lot of tips to lose weight. Ok here goes.....

*Best time to eat your food*
Breakfast: 7.30am
Lunch: 12pm
Dinner: 6.30pm

*Best time to exercise*
Time: 6.35am

*Best time to boost metabolism*
Time: 8am
-In order to boost the metabolism, drink a glass of ice cold water

*Best time to grocery shopping*
Time: 10am
-Cause you are still full with your breakfast and drinking glass of ice cold water. Your blood sugar level is at good point.

*Best time to take fibre*
Time: 6.15pm (15min before dinner)

To add on, I must drink at least 3litre per day. =)

-> Want to know why to the above tips? Ask Dr Oz. Hehehe!
