Bento Box IDEA!

So as I said on my first blog I started a low carb diet because I found myself weighing 150 pounds! To this diet I have tried to motivate my sister to do it with me, but she didn't like the idea of doing a diet until I discovered the low carb bento box.

My sister loves the Japanese culture. She loves it so much that the theme for her quinceanera party was Japan. One day while I was on Pinterest looking for low carb menus I discovered the LOW CARB BENTO BOX.

The low carb Bento box makes dieting FUN! This is how it works you will divide the plate into four sections (to make this easier I bought a bowl with divisions) most of the plate should be filled with salad or vegetables, then meat, also you can put some ham rolls with cream cheese or cheese, and finally you get to pick a fruit as dessert (when choosing a fruit make sure that it doesn't have too many carbs like the strawberry, kiwi, or the green grapes). So here is a picture of my first low carb Bento Box. It has a cheese and ham salad, ham rolls (I used a thin smoked ham, cheese, and cream cheese), fish, and a strawberry; it was delicious. I hope this gives you more ideas for make your diet fun and delicious!
 

2013 HEALTHY LIVING

Hi! All my life I had been skinny and weighted no more than 120 pounds, but last year I started my practicum and it was so stressful for me that I ate everything on my way. In less than an hour I found myself eating 2 to 3 snickers or m&ms. I know they are soooooo delicious but that is what got me to my 150 pounds! That is why this New Year I have decided to start eating healthier and losing weight. My idea is to follow a low carb diet and doing exercise every day except weekends.

First I will start explaining the low carb diet. A few years back my mother did this diet and she lost 60 pounds! Now I am wearing her cloth because mine doesn't fit no more! Back to the diet, the way I do the low carb diet is simple I start eating no carbs for two weeks and then after that I eat 40 carbs per day plus exercise.

My plan for exercise is doing for one week slow walking for 30 minutes until I finally start running the 30 minutes. I found this really good plan which I will follow:

Also I will upload each day a YouTube exercise I choose to do whether it is zumba or any aerobics, it will depend on my mood that day.

So that is my plan to get fit this year. I really hope I can get to my 110 pounds!
