How to loose the kilos without depriving yourself of your favourite foods!

Book launch at Tangs Singapore

Thanks to my passion in cookery, I get to travel and meet people of all ages and from all walks of life. One question that I am often ask is  "how to loose the kilos without depriving yourself of your favourite foods?". 

If you don't already know me, I am a television cook - specializing in healthy eating.  I was once an overweight teenager and I'd remember how miserable I was to be fat.  I love food and I'd realised that I was picking on the wrong foods and the portions. It started at the age of 13, my weight just went up and up and I always needed to buy jeans with one size bigger. At the age of 18,  I decided that I had to do something about it and one thing for sure, I don't want to deprive myself of my favourite meals and treats.

I then started educating myself about eating, nutrition and its biological implication. I went on a low fat regime and adapted my favourite food to a low fat healthy alternative. Through this, I lost 30 kilos and have kept  the fat off ever since without hitting the gym nor undergo a stringent diet program.

We all know that there are many kinds of diets that one can go on, and these may work for some but for others, these diets may not be practical nor sustainable. More so, there are too many diets that get the weight off so fast that it is impossible to sustain.

Through my personal experiences, diets generally do not work. Why? Because they restrict you; they tell you never to touch this or that.

What does that create? Bingeing.

My way is to eat sensibly and well every day with time off for a little indulgence now and again. I have found making small changes over time will make big differences, and it will be something you can maintain without too much of a struggle.

The philosophy that underlies my recipes is that "You can have great food without having the extra fats and calories". Through the years, I have learned to master simple and easy to do recipes.  I have personally used these recipes  to shed those kilos and I have made it my mission to share with as many people as possible to help educate people about food and to help them loose those extra kilos.
