Recently, I often hear that eating bitter gourd raw every day can lose weight. It is said that this method is very effective and popular in the United States and Japan, and there is no need to diet or exercise. You can sleep as long as you want and eat whatever you want. Is it really so amazing? It happens that our editor also plans to lose weight recently, so he plans to try it himself. The data supporting the experimental reasons are as follows: 1. In Hanzhong, some people are not fat, slim and have smooth and delicate skin. CCTV's "Life and Health" column group once reported this incident and uncovered the mystery: it turns out that they eat two or three bitter melons raw every day, which is why they are so slim. At the time of the interview, the director, Miss Lu Di, tried to take a bite, which looked miserable. An old lady named Sun ate five bitter melons in one breath in front of the camera. She said that she used to weigh 87 kilograms, which was very painful because of high blood pressure, diabetes, hyperlipidemia and arteriosclerosis. After eating bitter gourd for a year, her weight was reduced to 48 kilograms, and all those diseases were cured. 2. During the period of1998, Dr Carey of the United States extracted a bioactive component-high-energy lipoprotein from bitter gourd. Experiments show that taking one milligram of this ingredient every day can prevent about 100 grams of fat absorption and make the waist circumference thinner by two millimeters. My friend said that I once saw this kind of diet pills containing "bitter gourd lipid" sold in Japan, which cost nearly 30 thousand yen. I probably calculated that it was more than 1000 yuan, so I gave up the idea of letting my friends buy medicine from abroad and decided to eat bitter gourd directly. It's not only cheap, but also better than taking medicine. After all, "three drugs are poisonous." Legend has it that the effective consumption: 2-3 tablets a day, washed and seeded, must be eaten raw for more than 20 days, without dieting, sleep whenever you want, and eat whenever you want. Current physical condition: weight: 57.5kg, height: 168cm, pants 28 (looking at those 25-year-old pants in the summer of 2003, I really want to cry. I'm sure that when I gain weight, most of them will grow on my waist, so that when my parents heard that I want to lose weight, they looked at my long thin legs and called me guilty, but they didn't know how "hidden meat" my waist and abdomen was. Breakfast on day 1 day: 20 fried jiaozi. 12:00 (sorry, I didn't get up until after eleven o'clock) Lunch: a bowl of rice, a fish and some other stir-fried dishes. 18:00 dinner: a bowl of rice, a bowl of shredded chicken and corn, and some other dishes. 23:00 midnight snack: one cup of yogurt, two bottles of beer, two spicy duck necks and one bitter gourd. Feeling at two o'clock in the morning: I took the first sip carefully, which was very bitter. If I eat it again, the bitter taste is easy to say, but the green taste is really unbearable. I tried to eat one, but I really couldn't eat the second one. Breakfast the next day: a cup of yogurt, two pieces of bread and ham, and a bitter gourd. 8:00 lunch: a cage of Nanxiang steamed buns and a bowl of wonton. 12:30 dinner: a bowl of rice, half a fish and a bowl of kelp sparerib soup. 19:00 midnight snack: a bitter gourd. Feeling at 22:00: It tastes like chewing wax, and it's miserable. I didn't finish the two I planned yesterday, so I decided to eat separately today, one for breakfast and one for dinner. Breakfast on the third day: a bowl of noodles and an egg. Lunch at eight o'clock: a bottle of beer, some cold dishes, a bowl of cabbage soup, four rolls of roast duck (that is, four rolls of roast duck with pancakes) and a bitter gourd. 12:00 dinner: a big bowl of dregs, some boiled cabbage and a bitter gourd. 19:00 Feeling: I don't know if mixing with other things is the right thing to do. I'm going to eat bitter gourd at mealtime tomorrow. Breakfast on the fourth day: I didn't eat anything because I didn't get up until 2 pm. Lunch: a bowl of rice and some cooking. 18:00 dinner: a bowl of rice, some fried dishes, a huge Sydney. Midnight snack: a bottle of red wine and a piece of beef sauce (estimated to weigh three times). At 2: 30 in the morning, today's two bitter melons were finished at 4 pm and 1 1 respectively. Feeling: It seems that the first three days are really stealing opportunities, because it is not as smooth as the first three days when a person eats bitter gourd without mixing it with other things. My wife is really hard to swallow. I swallowed more than n mouthfuls directly, and I really can't chew. Breakfast on the fifth day: I still didn't eat, because I didn't get up until 2 pm again. Lunch: a bowl of rice and some cooking. 18:00 dinner: a bowl of rice, some cooking, a bowl of soup, two bottles of beer and a huge Sydney. 2 1:00 midnight snack: one bottle of red wine, two bottles of beer and one piece of beef with sauce (estimated to be three times). Feeling at 2: 30 in the morning: Today's two bitter melons were also eaten at 4 pm and 1 1 respectively. My mother suggested that I beat bitter gourd into paste and drink it, saying it was easier to swallow than chewing it directly, so I squeezed a large cup. What can I say ... it's all the same, still so bitter. Breakfast on the 6th day: 3 slices of bread and ham each. 8:00 lunch: a bowl of rice, some cooking. 12:00 dinner: a big bowl of tomato noodles. 19:00 snack: 18 spicy crayfish, 3 bottles of beer. Feeling at two o'clock in the morning: I ate two bitter melons at 8: 30 this morning and 6: 00 this afternoon respectively. Bitter gourd is so drunk that I always want to vomit. Insist on not weighing, and plan to persist for a week before feeling the effect. But I feel that my pants are not so tight, at least I don't need to loosen my belt after dinner (sorry). Breakfast on the seventh day: I didn't get up until 3 pm, so I didn't eat breakfast. Lunch: I didn't eat either, because I didn't feel hungry. Dinner: a big bowl of mutton soup (with meat) and half a pancake. 2 1:00 snack: 4 bottles of beer, granny peanuts 1 package. Feeling at 24:00: Today's two bitter melons were eaten at 4: 30 pm and 10 respectively, and I decided not to drink those mushy things because I really didn't want to spit them out. So I cut the bitter gourd into almost transparent slices, which made me feel much more comfortable to eat, but it took a lot of time. I ate each one for more than an hour. When I finally planned to weigh myself, I actually reduced it to 55 kilograms! Hold the household scale around, then take it to my husband and pester him to help check if it is broken. My husband was so entangled that he promised to take me around to the pharmacy scale when I went to work tomorrow morning. Follow-up: After another week, the food intake was basically the same as last week. Invented a new way to eat bitter gourd, that is, go to the supermarket to buy the smallest ice box, squeeze bitter gourd into paste and then freeze it into small pieces to swallow. Swallowing bitter gourd ice for a week is actually addictive, and it is the least uncomfortable way to eat raw bitter gourd, so I can't stand other methods. On the sixteenth day of the experiment, because of well-known reasons, I couldn't eat any ice, so I stopped the experiment with this "high-sounding" excuse. During this time, I stopped all weight-loss actions, insisted on being lazy, slept for more than 10 hours every day, and ate when I was hungry. At home, I just watch TV, surf the Internet, write articles, and basically have no exercise. Even my husband drives me to work. After two weeks of experiments, the weight finally dropped to 53.5 kg, and after eating and drinking, I wore 27 pairs of pants (the next size) without loosening my belt! I think, if I persist, I should be able to wear those 25-year-old pants in the summer of 2005. Solemnly remind: 1. Now there are some diet pills on the market that claim to contain momordicin. You must read them carefully before buying them, because many of them contain the illegal drug "sibutramine", which is very dangerous. To lose weight, we must first reduce the "thinness" of health, take health as the first foundation, and then consider whether we can lose weight effectively. 2. Bitter gourd is extremely cold when eaten raw. People with gastrointestinal problems and pregnant women should eat carefully.
