Hi, I am new here. I only know about this forum yesterday while surfing for information about Cohen diet. I must confessed that I am equally excited about this diet as well as this forum. I am still trying to get around figuring out how to set the sticker as well as the signature stuff. Hopefully I will get around it by end of this weekend.

I'm a 30 yrs old single Asian Chinese Lady and currently living in Singapore. I have been overweight for all my life, with exception of 2 yrs in University where I abused diet pills and exercise obessively. After grad, I managed to pile back all the weight I lost and currently weigh around 80kg. I am only 1.6m (5 ft 3 inch) tall so 80kg is really quite a lot on my Asian bone frames. I look forwards for the support and help in this forum!:p :D ;)
 
Welcome ! Fornight!

I totally hear ya! I took some pills to help burn the fat and put on muscle and since I ran out of the pills I stopped buying it. I definitely notice the fat coming back. Not only that I guess the fat is coming back because my metabolism rate has dropped from the lack of caffeine that I was getting from the pills. It's ok though, I cut back on my portions and are eating more often now so that I don't overeat cause of hunger. You should try that. Eat every 3 hours and have like a healthy snack! I lost a lot of weight by doing that in the beginning.
 
I tried pills once but never again. They made me dizzy at work. Of course some might say I am always that way....

The best thing is to eat fewer calories than you burn - or burn more calories than you eat. I think that's about it, no?
 
hi Fornight! welcome to the board.
I'm Asian too. Chinese Canadian specifically. I can totally understand about being asian with a smaller frame and being overweight for my entire life too.
hope the new eating regime works out for you.
good luck on your weight loss!
