Diet
I thought I was okay until last week, when I had to spend 15 minutes to get into my favorite jeans. And when I weighed myself, as what I thought. I gained some kilos.
Now with me being obsessed in looking like one of these girls bellow, I thought I'd do some diet.
Scientifically speaking, if you consume less calories than your body burns up, then you should lose weight. However, here is where the science stops because what I’m about to do is seriously unhealthy. Seriously unhealthy. As God did not bless me with a fast metabolism I have had to develop my own crafty means of weight loss: THE CHOCOLATE DIET.
Most people diet by exercising or eating changing their eating habits. But hey, I’m a half Manadonese (a tribe in Indonesia where people are stereotyped but actually half true to tend to overeat anything and drink alcohol in parties which they do quite often-partying-) and hence am pre-conditioned to develop an unhealthy attitude towards my body.
So completely on impulse, when I went to my local minimarket to buy some diapers for my baby this morning, I grabbed some essentials for my diet.
The method:
The chocolate diet involves consuming around 3000-4000kj of chocolate per day over a definite period of time. The only thing you’re allowed to eat is chocolate. The crux of this diet, is therefore, not what you’re putting into your mouth, but how much you’re putting in it.
Altogether the amounts I bought: 3584 kj + 4260 kj + 4540 kj + 3520 kj + 3255 kj = 19,159kj
I’m going to eat this over 6 days, so it’ll be an average of 3193 kj per day.
The facts:
The recommended daily intake for someone of my height, weight and activity level is 6920kj. You can find out what yours is here:
On average we need to burn 5000kj per day in order to lose 1 kg of fat.
For all of you that want to do this with me (and I don’t encourage you), or are trying to achieve your own weight loss goals, I’ve made a nice motivational poster for you to come back to when you feel your willpower weakening:
I will write a new post in a few weeks, to let you know how it’s going! If however, I die in the process (due to starvation) don’t hold me to that promise!

No excuses.
Just like me, jeans is my sign if I should exercise or diet (I'd rather exercise than buying a new jeans as it's expensive and I'd rather spend my money on my kids's need hehehe). But that's an extreme one you are about to have and honestly I just read this now. Wanna try mine? It's easy and it keeps me on my 42kg weight for years, even I have 4 kids and I loooooove eating. Will share it with you if you are interested
fatgirls"Cherrie..hahaha.. Actually I myself am not sure about this and I would probably finish all of those tastey chocos with my nieces before 3 days
Personally I prefer a woman with a little meat on her bones.
I do have to suggest that it might be a good idea to consult a physician before heading down that chocolate lined path.
Whatever you decide be safe and if you follow through monitor your health closely.
If that was all sarcastic biting humor...ya got me!
I lost 40 lbs and have kept it off. My waist is 32 inches and it hasn't been that small in a long time.

Should I say it? Eat more...naw!
I don`t know ho many kilos you have more but all my life I was agains all these dieats. I saw many of my friends keeping a different dieats and after that.......the same. Maybe you .want to try more exercise, for example, the swimming pool and increase your fluid intake, especially freshly squeezed vegetable juice
I like chocolate too much and I use this diet to cram at will with her ??favorite chocolate
That is a very sound advice, Rose!
