Yeah! Been reading this book abt low fat diet (stop laughing)
i admit that this book is highly interesting man! No kidding! K just to prove it to u, heres wat i learnt...

- Coffee n any caffinated drinks cause you to lose more water in your body by urination n etc
- Cold drinks (ie: any drink that is cold. Except soft drinks or caffinated drinks) causes your body to burn more fats just to heat up the drink. Thus..drinking cold drinks can help you burn more fat than hot or warm drinks.
- Calories are burnt to digest your meal thus ur metabolic rate increases while and after you eat. However, if you exercise within 30mins after ur meal, that metabolic rate increases even higher, thus burning more
- Never skip a meal coz when you do, the next meal you take, your body will go into fat storing mode instead of fat burning mode. Plus, you will be soo hungryt hat you'll tend to eat more than u should
- Alot of times when we feel like snacking, it isnt that we're hungry..but that we're thirsty. So try drinking a cup of water 1st...
- Eating complex carbos like vegs n fruits n wholemeal etc..causes the bosy to burn more fats to digest them. They also take longer time to digest thus you stay full longer..thus you eat less n burn more

Cool huh?!?!

Hahaha just a minor update...sneezed out a yellow reddish blob today..i think its phlegm :) So im okay w it..but breathing is abit less smooth..dun worry everything will get better...

Will tell you tom about this really scary dream I had 2 nights back... (consequently..the night that led to my sickly day)
