Tankee,
Are you being a little too harsh on yourself? Eat in moderation is better isn't it? You can order the kaya and butter toast but ask them for less butter and less kaya?
by the way is the butter used in Ya kun proper butter, right?
Just dun do what my staff did when I made kaya and brought to the office. She ate it straight out of the bottle. Finished 1/2 a bottle in 1 seating.[/quote]Not only sugar.
It is made using eggs and coconut, which are high in cholesterol and saturated fat.
Kaya is a very sinful delicious treat -

I spend some time on the thread mill today;
did not eat the egg yolk that came with my mee rebus lunch
and somehow managed not to order kaya toast & soft boiled eggs from Ya Kun when I was there for coffee

I am trying to lower my cholesterol level and avoid depending on medication to keep it under control. :sad: -

Went for my morning run. Dunno why, the usual 5km feels much tougher today.
Not enough sleep ? -

Kaya is a very sinful delicious treat[/quote]In that amount you spread on the bread, you will not be eating a whole egg. Verdict is out on whether coconut is good or bad. I lean towards bad. Way I see it, the sugar is a killer. Cos you are getting way more than 1tsp of sugar in that 1 tsp of kaya.
But again, once in a while. Ok. Cannot deprive ourselves of everything also lah. Or else eating is such a chore. -

I cant give that up.
Oh! well I will avoid it after 6pm. May be make sure i have less carbs/fats at dinner that day. -
1 egg yolk contains 270mg of cholesterol, and the recommended daily intake of cholesterol is to keep below 300mg.

Come to think of it, could also be cos I have not been as regular in my morning runs the last 2 weeks and my stamina is down. Haiz build up stamina tough, but to lose it, so easy. -
I rarely have any kaya toast. Thank goodness!
