Summer Heat Got You Down? Stay Cool and Slim with Lisa Tse's "Lazy Weight Loss Method"!
With the scorching summer heat making you sweat and sapping your energy as soon as you step outside, it's no wonder staying active feels impossible. But if you’re looking to keep that lean figure without intense workouts, take a cue from former Miss Hong Kong champion Lisa Tse. She swears by her daily drink of Future Salad, a refreshing way to "slim down while sitting and eating" that helps shed belly fat effortlessly!
Lisa even launched a "90-Day Future Salad Challenge," where she guided 18 participants through weight loss, waist trimming, and body fat reduction—with impressive results! Check out the professional nutritionist tips below and follow along at your own pace to achieve safe and effective weight loss.
1. How Did Lisa Get Even Fitter Than When She Won Miss Hong Kong? What’s Her Secret to Weight Loss?
Lisa Tse: "I Haven't Had Time to Exercise Lately, and Honestly, Working Out Can Be Exhausting"
Lisa shared that her recent weight loss journey didn’t rely on intense workouts. Instead, she focused on adjusting her diet. "I follow the 'lazy weight loss method' by eating smaller meals more frequently—about 5 to 6 times a day," Lisa explained. She emphasized eating more vegetables and cutting down on carbs, sticking to a routine where she could "slim down while sitting and eating."
2. How Can You Maintain Your Figure Without Regaining the Weight?
Lisa Tse: "I Believe Weight Regain Happens When We’re Too Hard on Ourselves"
Lisa shared that strict habits often lead to setbacks. "If you eat foods you don’t enjoy, or even skip meals entirely, and then push yourself through hours of exercise, your body won't adapt. It’s not sustainable, and eventually, you give up and overeat."
While Lisa focuses on a balanced diet, she doesn’t restrict herself completely. "I mainly watch my calorie intake. I start my day with a glass of Future Salad, and at lunch, I treat myself to a sandwich I love. This approach is the only way to stay consistent over time."
3. What is Future Salad?
Lisa Tse: "Lately, I've Been Starting My Mornings with Future Salad"
Lisa shared that her go-to drink, Future Salad, is essentially a "drinkable salad." It’s both effective and delicious, without the grassy taste that many health drinks have. Each small packet contains the fiber and nutrients of five bowls of salad greens and is very low in calories. "It's what I rely on for easy detoxing and getting rid of belly fat—it’s the ultimate lazy weight loss method," Lisa said.
4. Is there really a lazy weight loss method? What is it like?
Nutritionist John Wong (黃榮俊): "Everyone wants to lose weight without putting too much time and effort into exercise. In fact, making slight adjustments to your diet can also be an effective 'lazy weight loss method.' The key is to maintain a feeling of fullness, so you don’t have to suffer from hunger or overeat due to being hungry. I recommend eating more high-fiber foods, like fruits and vegetables, because dietary fiber absorbs water and expands, which increases fullness and boosts metabolism. However, urban people often find it difficult to get enough servings, so products or drinks like Future Salad, which is rich in fiber, can be easily prepared and consumed. It provides lasting fullness, making it perfect for busy city dwellers.
If combined with low starch intake and sufficient protein, this can help speed up fat burning and prevent muscle loss, allowing you to achieve 'lazy weight loss.'"
5. What is the principle behind how Future Salad helps with weight loss?
Nutritionist John Wong (黃榮俊): "Future Salad is a high-fiber nutritional drink made from a variety of fruits and vegetables. It not only increases fullness but also has very low calories. At the same time, it helps cleanse the stomach and regulate intestinal health.
The guar gum and moringa leaves in Future Salad also aid in weight loss. Guar gum is rich in soluble fiber, which absorbs water, expands, and increases viscosity. This not only increases the feeling of fullness but also helps absorb cholesterol, allowing it to be carried out with waste. It also softens stool and promotes easy detox.
Moringa leaves, in addition to being rich in dietary fiber, are also packed with protein, vitamin C, and other nutrients that boost the immune system and support healthy weight loss.
When consumed with chia seeds, flax seeds, and nuts, chia and flax seeds can expand 10 times their size when they absorb water, providing a feeling of fullness for up to 6 hours after eating. Chewing nuts also sends fullness signals to the brain, greatly enhancing the feeling of fullness!"
6. Can Future Salad be consumed daily? Is it safe? Does it lead to rebound weight gain?
Nutritionist John Wong (黃榮俊): "Of course, it can. Future Salad uses a formula of over ten kinds of natural fruits and vegetables, which can replace your daily fiber intake. I would recommend 1 to 2 packets per day. The amount is very safe, and it can increase fullness, control calories, and reduce the intake of other foods. You won’t have to suffer from hunger while trying to lose weight, and it’s generally hard to regain the weight."
7. Why did Future Salad recently organize a weight loss competition?
Lisa Tse: "Many people want to lose weight, but often choose the wrong methods or give up because exercise and dieting are too difficult. That’s why I organized the '90-Day Future Salad Challenge.' I hope to promote a healthy and easy weight loss method through this event, while giving participants who want to lose weight the chance to fight together and gain more motivation. I accompanied them throughout the entire event, from those suffering from sleep apnea due to obesity to others facing public scrutiny online and struggling with low self-esteem. I witnessed their determination to change, to fight for their health and a better life, and in the end, seeing their transformation was incredibly moving. I’m so happy for them."
8. What are the reasons the participants want to lose weight? What painful experiences have they gone through?
Koey (non-celebrity participant): "I’m lucky that I didn’t face criticism from online users because of my weight, like other participants, or have my boyfriend criticize me. The reason I joined the competition was because I wanted to look good, to return to the body I had before the pandemic. Ideally, I wanted to 'lose weight without losing my chest.' Plus, the competition promoted an easy weight loss method without having to do too much exercise, so I immediately signed up."
9. What was the experience like participating in the '90-Day Future Salad Challenge'?
Koey (non-celebrity participant): "The competition required us to drink a glass of Future Salad Detox Drink every day for 90 days. What surprised me the most was how delicious it was! I’ve tried other green juices before, and not only did they taste very grassy, but the results weren’t ideal either. But Future Salad has a pleasant fruit juice taste, and after drinking it, I feel full, so my food intake naturally decreases. I always drink a cup before a big meal, which helps reduce my appetite and also promotes smooth digestion. After just a few days of drinking it, my belly and waistline noticeably shrank. I never expected that just drinking a cup of Future Salad Detox Drink could help me lose weight so easily!"
10. What changes or benefits did you experience after participating in the '90-Day Future Salad Challenge'?
Koey (non-celebrity participant): "Watching the video, it's obvious that there's a big change! What I’m most satisfied with is my waistline, which has reduced by 20 cm. I used to not fit into some pants, but now they’re too loose. Plus, I’ve achieved the 'lose weight without losing my chest' result. My colleagues even said I’ve become like a different person, looking prettier, and my complexion and skin have improved! I’m really happy with my weight loss success, as I’ve regained my confidence. I feel more energetic and lively, and even my body has become healthier—my blood sugar and cholesterol levels are back to normal. So, I’m really thankful for Future Salad!"
