4 Hour Body Workout - Serious?

My dear sista Alice was reading about success stories using kettlebell, and came across this book 4 Hour Body

it advocates minimum effective exercise and slow carb diet that do not allow you to eat carbs - this is the most difficult part to achieve!

however at 74 kg, what the heck, just give it a try. since i have anyway tried more crazy stuff, why not?

The foods allowed are:
Egg whites with one or two whole eggs
Chicken breast or thigh
Grass fed beef
Fish
Pork
Legumes
Lentils
Black beans
Pinto beans
Red beans
Soy beans
Vegetables
Spinch
Mixed vege including broccoli cauliflower or other cruciferous vege
Sauerkraut or kimchi
Asparagus
Peas
Broccoli
Green beans

check out my loot from carrefour and ntuc!



These are the proteins that I have bought- Dory Fish, Salmon, Eggs, Silken Tofu and Tau Kwa. Will be buying chicken breast and thigh from my supplier. dont think i will eat beef as grass fed beef is expensive.



Vegetables: broccoli, carrots, celery, cherry tomatoes, japanese cucumber, ice berg.. these are the usual that my cafe use also, hahaha. also have cabbage leftover from my mum in law that i can use.





I have got some mushrooms too, although this was not in the allowed list. However, it is not in the prohibited list! So i have portobello mushrooms, jin zhen gu and swiss brown mushrooms




kimchi! I love kimchi, though i dun know yet why it is allowed, hur hur. buy first!




No sugar and milk is allowed in this diet, so there goes my 3 in 1 coffee. Hopefully i can survive on kopi o gosong!!




Ok, no carbo is allowed not even brown rice. But i really doubt i can last without carbo for very long, so just in case i cave in to unhealthy carbs, i thought i better have some healthy carbs to stand by.


and now the most important task is to clear the prohibited foods already in my home! toast to chocolate  milk!!! :D
