Suki Diet - Working well so far

Featured Replies

Over the past month I've been doing a "Suki Diet", which I've found to be pretty good, and figured I'd share, as I think it works really well for me (130kg+ & losing 1kg each week) and so maybe it'll work well for others too.

Each day I'm just having 1x main meal of suki (boiled pork / vegetables + dipping sauce, so MK/Shabushi/Hotpot style).  This is initially tough for a couple of days, but when you start is when you have the most motivation, so you've just gotta soldier through it.

I have a suki pot at home (Something you can easily find on Shopee https://shopee.co.th/search?keyword=suki pot)

I then go to Tesco Lotus and buy 3x 180g packs of "Sun Nok" (สันนอก) pork, which translates to Pork Loin, and is the part of pork with the least fat.
I also get some cabbage (They have this Chinese cabbage as well as regular cabbage), carrots, brocoli or cauliflower, corn & sometimes mushrooms.
I also have some MK suki sauce (nam jim) for dipping, and sometimes mix an egg in with the suki.

This all combines into a single meal which gives a tonne of protein, pretty much all of the vitamins and minerals etc that you need.

I also have 2-3x meiji high protein shakes (chocolate / banana / melon / green tea / coffee flavours so they taste good), there are some others that look similar but aren't anywhere near as healthy, as chat GPT told me this would help to reduce the amount of muscle lost along with the fat, particularly if doing exercise as well.

All of the above are also available via delivery to your home using lineman mart or grab mart.

For my weight, this results in a pretty hefty calorie deficit, losing about 1kg - 1.5kg per week, which is noticeable enough that it keeps my motivation strong to continue the diet, and chatGPT assures me that the diet is healthy enough that I can sustain it longterm.

One potential problem though, was that the diet is very efficient and so things move through your digestive system more slowly, which means more water is taken out of them.  So you've got to consume pretty decent amounts of water, and try to ensure you don't skimp on the broccoli and carrots each day, I found out the hard way about what happens if you don't.  So now I have some sachets of Mucilin which I mix in with water each morning to help avoid constipation, and try to ensure I drink more water, but aside from that I've found the diet to be really good and something which I could easily sustain longterm.

Also as it's very calorie efficient, that if I have a social engagement etc where I'll eat out with friends etc, and so can't have my suki diet, or really feel like I deserve some ice cream or kfc etc, I can just switch it up for the day, and even with a 2nd meal that's unhealthy I'll probably only be calorie neutral, rather than necessarily putting weight back on.  Although a cheat day can increase hunger the following day, and the scales will temporarily look off (Even though it's just temporary due to extra food / water residing in your body) so there's a price to be paid for cheat days.

Oh and although exercise is of course a good bonus to add, this is just a diet.  I've been consistently losing 1kg per week without adding in extra exercise, even though I've had a few cheat days.  I don't have a lot of free time so that's part of why this works particularly well for me.
