Go green, with your tea at least. Studies in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition found that green tea speeds up your metabolism so that you burn more calories. Five cups a day are needed for best results.

Surburnt rides
Over the weekend I rode, over 70kms Sunday I rode with Yusuke but on the 3rd lap he got a puncture and we walked back to Seto taking us 1.5 extra hours. If he didnt get a puncture I wouldnt have been out in the sun that long and of course I would have got a sunburn but not has bad I have now.
Monday we out again to do 3 laps, of course he is late its normal for japanese ppl to turn up late
I wore a long sleeved Tshirt, place sunblock on my neck, face and hands. but i still think i need to buy gloves for the hands I cant really cover them up

Myth or not
Boom no more weighing myself at work, I can now weigh at home the only problem with that is I tend to weigh myself everyday >.<
Very happy thou, Chihos back adding rice back to my diet. I refuse to eat it everyday thou.
Been drinking alot more Jasime tea. Green tea
Myth or not?
Green tea
Miso soup
Made from two fat-burning foods, seaweed and soya beans, this brother packs a powerful weight-loss punch. Hokkaido University Graduate School of Fisheries Sciences in Japan found that eating a serving each day can increase your weight loss by 10 per cent.
Chilli
It doesn’t just heat up your mouth, the spicy hotness of a chilli pepper also kick-starts your body’s fat burners. Food scientist Heidi Allison, author of The Chili Pepper Diet, found that you can lose 10 times as much weight if you add a sprinkle of dried chillies to your meals.
Grapefruit
Maybe there is something in the grapefruit diet after all. Scripps Clinic researchers found that half a grapefruit before each meal helped dieters to lose between 3.3 and 10 pounds over the course of 12 weeks. The scientists are not sure why this works as the same amount of calories were being eaten, but they think that it may have some sort of fat-burning effect. At only 39 calories per half it’s definitely worth a shot.
Protein
A study in the Journal of Exercise Physiology found that you can burn up to 25 per cent of the calories in a meal of pure protein just by digesting it. While going Atkins is sure to give you death breath, cutting out the fries for an extra bun-free burger can help you reach your weight-loss goals all the quicker.
Coffee
Another excuse for your morning java hit – food scientists at Oryza Oil & Fat Chemical Company, Japan, have found that coffee can aid weight loss. For the best effects, go for unprocessed green coffee beans. Try greencoffeeltd.co.uk for a selection.
TBH Ive added grapefruit, miso soup now to my diet who knows if it works with it or boost more that its only for the better ;)
cheap too

Its the 2nd week now that Ive missed a swimming section on Tuesday, (yesterday we did have a typhoon hit the shore of Japan and go over it. Advicer said that u should head home and be safe indoor and try not to ride in it if possible.
Went to be around 11.30. woke up at 2am I was boiling hot I wanted to wake up at 3am but its was so hot that I used the computer for a while. Then listened to England beat Ukraine 1-0 . ;)

Don't think, feeel!
Measurements: waist 141cm, hips 123cm, thigh 70cm, chest 127cm, neck 44cm
The only change is my chest I've lost 4cm & hips 2cm
Even thou I feel that I only lost 0.8kg sounds not much but when u look it into pounds its actually 1.7 pounds which I'm pretty chuffed about. Even a pound a week is still good.
Last night we eat steak, sashimi of tuna and Mackerel
Im in the faze of loving Bruce Lee, we rented a movie out last night 'Dragon' The Story of Bruce Lee'. Hiro told me that he loves Bruce Lee and bought all his poster and even his book about kung fu. I was very surprised to hear this. He even made his own set of nunchunks!!!!
Now I want to read his books, buy his dvds for my own collection ;)
Probably rent out 'Enter the Dragon next week' :)
On Sunday arranged to meet a 3rd year student at Morikoro park and ride around together.
Yusuke is a nice lad, 3rd year lives in Seto near Seiyu and his English is pretty good. He asked if we could ride together.
We did 4 laps and he told me that I ride fast lol. I think I ride slow.
This week I want to do 5 laps around Morikoro Park the only time I can get to do it this week is probably on Friday coz i wont be finishing early at all any time. Only Friday is one period i have and thats 5th. Thou I have the morning off and if the weather is nice Ill go in the morning I think.

down by 2kg
On Saturday night Hiro and Goto came over, I drank one beer, I needed to control myself because two weeks ago when I had a party at my house. I drank too much and ate too much!
This time round I behaved myself.
A new wager has arose, Hiro bet me that I have to be 120kg by this time next year so I said on Jun's birthday Ill be have reached 120kg or lower! Only 5000yen thou but its worth a night out on the free ne!
Sunday morning having a guilty mind, I decided to hit Morikoro park via 4 laps could have gone more, actually i know I could have gone more, but had to get back to see Jun on skype b4 his bedtime and the internet weather said that we would be having showers.
Im abit gutted coz i could have gone further. In the evening I went swimming.
Just have to remember that the pool at the weekends are open from 10am to 6pm
and weekdays from 2pm till 8pm with Wednesday being closed!
