Week #1 of experiment #2 !!

Completely forgot the before and after pictures, but i took a front and side picture anyway, even though it is in the middle of the day

Wasn't sure what i'm expected to wear and such, so i just went with a bikini top and underwear shorts (couldn't find the bikini bottom)

Weight : 62.kg
Height : 165cm
Body fat % : Not sure, but last time i checked it was 25-26%
BMI : 22.8

The work out routine :

- 1 day  cardio/aerobics.

Goal :

The nutritional stuff :

I'm not sure i can 'obey' a calorie frame. I'm so used to just eat until i'm full. I'll give it a try thought.

- more calories from fat than protein
So! here we go!!

Breakfast with a good friend

Do you ever wonder what to eat when you go out?  I dined for breakfast with a really good friend of mine (No sadly, it wasnt Neta)---.  And there are a lot of high carb options, but how can you make your meal low carb?  Here is what I did-
I gave my friend all my carbs---thats why she has much on her side! the potatos were mine and i generously donated them.  She had pancakes, hashbrowns and eggs.  That is a lot of carbs.  I had eggs, steak tips, sweet peppers and onions.  I asked for extra  butter for the side, but when I took one bite,  I knew it was not butter, but actually margarine.

Breakfast was nice. It was nice for me to look at those pancakes, some times i like to see eye candy.  I did not eat any high carb items but ate a delicious low carb meal.  I drank water with my meal.  You can always make any option at a restaurant a low carb option, just give your carbs to someone else or ask the waitstaff not to give it to you.

Day 14 - Weigh in Wednesday + Why women might see a weight gain.

How to make crispy bacon!

So this is a method I found to make bacon crispy (when I can find actual bacon that has no preservatives or at least has the absolute minimum of 'bad mojo' in them, these had 0.2 carbs per 100 grams)

Step 1 !

Put in a tray some aluminium foil and bake at 150-200 oC until it looks half-way done

Step 2 !

Flip your bacon and let it cook at 100-150 until crispy!

Step 3!! 

Leave the kitchen for a bit and have a hungry guest just eat up your crispy bacon and don't manage to take a picture! Try it out! Cook until crisp to your preference!
