hi guys, it's wengie here today i wanted to do another video all about my diet experience because you guys love these videos and today i was actually browsing through some of my old photos on facebook because my friend was like i can never imagine you like, you're tiny
easy to stick to diets that work, i could never imagine you any bigger than you are now and also i swear i was bigger so i went and looked through my old facebook photos and i found this one and i'll pop it up on the screen right now
and it just like super surprised me because i realized how far i have come for those of you guys that are still, you know, going through your life-style changes and if you're trying to lose weight just, basically don't worry because i think it's definitely a time thing and it's really well known that habits take 60 to 90 days to kick and if your habits take 90 days to kick then you got to wait at least 3 months for you to see any kind of change that you want to see i mean there are fad diets when you do do something extremely different for a short period of time but i don't feel like that's the right way to go about losing weight. it doesn't last
if you want to change how you weight or how you look it needs to be sort of like a routine that you work in and it's like a habit that you develop and it needs to change your old habits as well and i just feel like fad diets don't do that i feel like it's really important to share with you guys that weight gain it doesn't just happen to you there might be a moment in time when you realise that it has happened but it actually is a build-up of all your habits put together that led you to that moment and you may not know what these habits are or you probably don't even realise you're doing it but a lot of the time weight gain or even weight loss as well is just a result of a change in habits so, i mean there's a lot of research that goes into looking at people habits and how to change them
but one thing that's in common with all of them is just time you need to give it enough time for you to get used to it you need sort of like self-control because that's a huge thing i mean if you always, you know, don't control yourself you will find that you will never stick to any habit it's that 90 days is so painful because it's like kicking in old habit and old habits die hard so if you don't change it permanently you actually revert back quite quickly and looking at my like eating habits now they have changed dramatically so i'm going to pop another photo up for you right now. this is what i look like at the time and these where my eating habits at the time
i had supper every night at twelve o'clock for supper i would actually dip potato chips in avocado and that would be my supper a lot of the time and that would be sort of like my dessert after supper i would also have maybe like a pasta or maybe like frozen dinner or something like that and then i finished off with chips so that would be my habit, like i would do that almost every single day without fail in addition, i started drinking soft drinks which i never drank for a long time and i cut soft drinks out for a very long time but i started drinking soft drinks 'cause my boyfriend at the time, who i lived with
and that's like going to be a huge influence on what kind of habits you develop he loved soft drinks, so i started buying them from the supermarket and when they're there in the fridge you just drink them because it's easy and when you eat chips, i mean, nothing goes better with chips than some soft drink, right? so then, i did that and then, on top of that i ate out a lot 'cause i used to go dancing a lot and i used to go really late and then you wouldn't have time to cook so we'd all be out and we all have like a social dinner out after class or something so i always ate out and because when you eat out the portions are big and you don't want to waste the food
and yeah, because you've just eaten sort of three quarters of it and there's like a quarter left you don't want to take it home so you kind of just finish it 'cause you don't want to waste food so that's another habit i did. i ate out like three or four times a week with friends after dance so it was pretty much those two or three habits, it wasn't a lot of habits but they...oh another habit i had was, my boyfriend at the time ate a lot, i started cooking more food so, i would never cook that much for myself but because there was a hungry boy eating i cooked more food and i didn't want to waste it and it wasn't enough to kind of portion out for a second meal so i just put the whole portion in my plate in my plate and his plate and i kind of would portion it similar because you know, at the time i just thought why don't i eat almost the same amount as him?
why not like i just cooked a double portion? 'cause in my head times 2 is easier than 1 and a half and me eating half and him eating one, that makes sense but yeah, so i had bigger meals as well those four habits, like it wasn't a lot, it was only those four habits over a period of time of like a year had a huge dramatic effect on how much weight i put on and yeah, i had a lot of extra weight and now that i think about it i still vaguely remember it but i don't actually when i sat down my belly would hang over my pants i would do a lot more slimming photoshoping on my photos for my blog and there were just a lot of factors that led to me going like omg and having that 'aha moment'
so yeah, i just wanted to share that with you guys because i think it's really important for you guys to be realistic about how long it takes for you to lose weight and to change your habits and that's the most important thing i do not recommend any sort of fad diets detoxes are fine, but don't rely on them for weight loss. if you want to detox yourself, that's fine but you can't really expect a long time change when you just detox for a month and then go back to your old eating habits and i also don't condone starving yourself because you can actually eat a lot of healthy food and still lose weight as long as you choose the right food
so that's like super important and don't think that the only way to lose weight is actually to not eat because that's incredibly wrong and incredibly harmful for your body and i can't really emphasise that enough i actually developed this book which is like my 7 day eating plan and you guys have always asked what i eat on a daily basis and what you guys should eat on a daily basis if you want to lose weight like what you should cook and everything so i put together this ebook and it has 7 days worth of meals for you guys
it's very easy to cook with very easy ingredients and it's kind of like a fusion between western food and japanese, korean and chinese food so it's a fusion of those kind of styles of food and the great thing about this ebook is that $1 of it goes to charity so at the end of the year i'll donate $1 from each book to charity which would be awesome and i think a lot of you guys would benefit from this so if you're interested, i've got the link down below. you can find it on my blog as well there's quite of few girls doing it and you know i'm really excited to see the feedback 'cause i love seeing people kind of log their journeys
if you guy get this book and decide to follow it, please log your journey for me and please give me feedback 'cause i really want to improve it and help you guys stick to a sort of diet plan that's healthy, that means you get all your nutrients and that you also lose weight and get to your goal as well that is my ultimate aim for this book and i'm happy to change it and adapt it and improve it according to your feedback so i'd really love to hear from you guys i'm going to be posting like a few like healthy recipes as well on my channel 'cause you guys have been asking for cooking videos for so long and i haven't got around to filming one of them but i'm definitely going to film a few for you guys and put them on my channel as well
so please stay tuned for that i hope you guys enjoy this video i just thought i'd do a video for you guys that, you know, just motivate you guys on your healthy life style change journey it's very, very hard. it's not easy, the times where i sat there and i would crave chips i still crave chips and maccas, like to this day. i just don't eat it as often whereas before i would kind of buckle to my cravings like every day or every other day now i only do it like once a month or when i feel like i've eaten really well for the day i would reward myself and that's okay, as long as you keep track of
like how many calories on what you're eating and whether you're doing well that's changed a lot for me and you'll find that once you start eating healthy you won't crave junk food as much it's kind of like a downward spiral, once you start eating junk food you just keep craving it and craving it and it's just like a bad, bad...it's like a stone rolling downhill i'm really bad with my example today, i'm really sorry but yeah, anyway, that's off on a tangent; i was going to end this video yeah, i wanted to create this video to encourage you guys so leave your comments below and let me know if you guys are on this healthy eating journey how you're going, any tips to motivate other people
