Um…It doesn’t mean that I have much experience of losing weight. (Although I usually say: “I want to be more slender!” “I will go on a diet!” or something like these, I never really try to do it. :P) Now I want to talk about this title just because of my lately report in the course—“Chinese Medicine and the Culture of Nurturing Life.”
If it’s the bad eating habit that makes people fat, we should find the main problem first and try our best to improve.
Take me for example. I can terribly have a lot of food while I can also eat like a bird; I always eating so fast; I will keep eating when facing pressure; when I have a big-meal date with friends, I may have nothing for the other one or two meals. These are all my awful eating habits. (VERY AWFUL!!!) Roughly speaking, my main problem is eating too fast and irregularly. According to the information I found, what I should do is to make my diets regular, no matter time or amounts, to slower my chewing speed to make it easier to digest and feel full, to brush my teeth right after eating (it can help stop thinking about what is the next thing I want to eat), to do some exercise to distract pressure, and to go to bed earlier to have a nice sleep so that hormones in brain can work normally.
If I put them into practice, maybe I will be much more slender. Haha. Even if I won’t, these methods sound so great that can make me healthier. But now giving them a try is a little hard to me, due to the busy undergraduate life. :(

Nice topic! Losing weight in a healthy way is also what I'm looking forward. But I have no idea how's your figure(BMI/Waist size)? I'm afraid that if your weight is just within the normal range(BMI=19~23), there's no neccessary to go for a diet. However the prescription you gave yourself is very mild to practise and without side-effects! Good Luck!
ReplyDeleteI read an article about thin people’s eating habit on internet these days. I always think that I am thin only because I have bad health, but the article lets me know I also have those eating habit. I don’t like feel full, so I always stop eating when I feel “not hungry”. Maybe you can try this.
ReplyDeleteI want to lose my weight!! My eating habit is very like yours. I would also try your suggestions, but maybe after the mid-term exam. The happiest thing during the mid-term exam is eating. Ha-ha. Thank you for providing the useful tips.
ReplyDeleteTo Eric:
ReplyDeleteThanks~ In fact, my BMI and Waist size are both normal and even near the minimum of “normal.” However I think I’m not a REALLY thin girl since I have high cholesterol (very high) and the local obesity problem. Lol. I don’t think that I really have to go on a diet, either. But these days I’ve gained much weight in an unhealthy way. Anyway, there’s no doubt that I have to improve my eating habit. :P
To Sunny:
ReplyDeleteThanks for your advice.:)
I may keep eating without feeling full when facing pressure whereas I may just eat few things without being hungry if I'm too busy. (What a strange person I am!!) So I know what you mean that you stop eating when feeling “not hungry”. haha.
To Alice:
ReplyDeleteHAHA~I know!! Mid-term and reports both mean eat more.hahaha. Then let's give it a try!! Hope we both will reach our goals.:)
