Today is the 8th day of my diet. I have been abstaining myself from carbohydrate for a WEEK.
I do not take any rice, cookies, biscuits, noodles or anything that has carbohydrate.
Below are the food to eat during my diet:* lean cuts of beef or pork (tenderloin, sirloin)
* chicken (n0 skin)
* turkey (no skin)
* low carb vegetables - broccoli, pepper, mushroom, spinach
* low fat cheeses - cottage, cheddar, feta
* low fat yogurt
* eggs
* skimmed milk
* fish & shellfish
* handful of nuts - peanuts, pistachio
And listed here are the foods to avoid during my diet:
- fatty cuts of beef or lamb, pork sausages and liver
- all rice, bread & pasta
- duck, goose, chicken wings
- starchy vegetables (potatoes, corn, yam, beets, peas)
- high fat dairy (brie, edam, camembert)
- ice cream
- alcohol
- high calorie sodas
- fruits & fruit juices
- simple carbs (cakes, cereal, cookies, candy, chocolate)
After ONE week of diet following the above food guide, I can feel myself being more slender as compared to my previous bloated body. I wish to continue this diet for at least ONE month to shred a few KG!
Haha... wish me good luck..

I recently lost 5kgs by abstaining from carbs as well. I would suggest you take muesli and cereals as well for breakfast, and do not be afraid to eat (sparingly) healthy fat in fish and milk/butter. You will need it for Vit A, D, E absorption so your skin does not lose it's glow and elasticity from dieting. Cereals are wonderful as it increases your metabolism and fibre.
This is a wonderful site for you to look at. I found it last time and it was a good reference for my dieting, and it made my eating more flexible.

Wow, that's wonderful. How long did it take to lose that 5kgs? How I wish I would have the same result too.
The site is simply marvelous, now I can have more choices and varieties for my diet meals :)
