MY NIGERIAN WEIGHT LOSS JOURNEY DAY 6 (Video)

Moi moi dinner for my weight loss journey.

 My new lifestyle and weight loss journey day 6. Yes! the digits are still dropping and I’m even a bit worried “I hope it’s not rapid because I know first hand the disadvantages of losing weight too quickly. Been there, I saw the wrinkled forehead and regretted it. Thankfully I gained it back and the wrinkles disappeared.

Sagging skin wahala is another disadvantage. When weight is lost too quickly, the body doesn’t have enough time to adjust. The skin loses water and fat that initially filled it up, cannot adjust that quickly, and begins to be sad and wrinkle.

Losing slowly is the best as your skin doesn’t even realize something (Fat) is being burnt out, so it naturally goes back gradually to original size. Lolz.

Yes. today Friday, March 9th my weight has dropped to
81.9kg. The difference isn’t much though but I’m grateful considering the big plate of plantain porridge I ate yesterday.

I honestly thought I won’t be able to finish it but cleared everything and then became scared for myself and regretting that I didn’t stick to the plate I kept for my weight loss meals…

That plate can’t take much food even if I wanted to scoop in some more unlike the saucer of yesterday that enabled me to overeat.

EXERCISE:

Scroll down to see my workout routine.. Wasn’t feeling it today at all but I still managed to go 10 minutes.

By 2 Pm, I snacked on the fruits below. Three African star-fruits (Agbalumo, Udara), 2 avocados, and a small piece of cucumber.

 

 DINNER

Very delicious moi moi. I finished 3 wraps before realizing that it was a bit too much. 2 would have been ok if not that I took out one for tasting when the pot was still on fire and still took my usual 2 wraps after cooking. Let me post moi moi recipe link here so I don’t have to write a detailed recipe for this. 

See how to make moi moi
 

INGREDIENTS FOR MY WEIGHT LOSS MOI MOI:

2 cups beans
8 large red bell peppers (tatashey)
1 very large red onion
One tablespoon pepper sauce (That’s about 3 scotch bonnet peppers
1/2 cup palm oil
Hard-boiled eggs
2 stock cubes
Salt to taste Water

The beans were washed and soaked for about 6 hours to soften before my blender will come and cry because of moi moi beans. Blended together with the onion and red bell peppers, salt and seasoning cubes added to taste.

Then while wrapping in a leaf, a boiled egg is dropped in before completing the wrap. It is placed on gauze in the pot so it doesn’t sit directly on the water. After wrapping all, a little boiling water is dropped in and the turned on. Cover and leave to cook for about 1 hour while you occasionally check and add water so the pot doesn’t burn.

TIP: To get good moi moi texture, your beans must be milled or blended very smooth like butter.
These ingredients produced 9 moi moi wraps. It was actually very tasty

I hope standing on the weighing scale tomorrow will still be fun as the past days? Anyways, I’m not going to be too hard on myself, after all I prefer losing slowly. If I gain, no wahala, we just keep pushing and drop it again and continue the journey.
