Holla! Nice to meet you guys👋
We are here to share with you our group's theme which is eating out and food modification. We were the third group that will conduct our module for the first session. It's time to get acquainted with our group members.
First of all, let's get to know each other. Our group consists of 6 members and the appointed leader of the group is Sr Nadhira. She is responsible in distributing task for each member. Even where decisions may be taken by the whole team, someone has to take responsibility for chairing meetings, or their virtual equivalent. In a meeting, this person has responsibility for clarifying the aims of the meeting and its agenda. Next, Br Ariffuddin is the assistant head of the group his roles are to assist the group leader and program coordinator and also being in charge for the #healthyplatechallenge and #healthyrecipechallenge. For the third group member, Sr Rogayyah, she has been assigned as the secretary of the group her task will be to compile all the proposal and report as well as to conduct the introduction part of the module. A team needs someone who takes notes in meetings: a team secretary or a record keeper. One of her duties is to keep a record of what decisions have been taken, who is doing what, and the date of the next meeting. A summary of the meeting, in the form of meeting minutes, will normally be circulated to the rest of the team by the record keeper. Therefore, the minutes of the meeting can be seen as the official record of the meeting and can be referred to if decisions are revisited or are in doubt. Then, the program coordinator of the group is Sr Amalia, she will manage the schedule for our module and also as the PIC for eating outside talk along with Sr Nadhira. A team needs someone who is responsible for ensuring that the team is keeping to the schedule that the team members have set themselves and ensuring that they will meet the external deadlines that have been given to them. Such a person should monitor progress, ensuring that everyone is doing what they are supposed to and that all the tasks that need to be completed by a particular date are on schedule before the deadline and have been completed once the deadline has passed.

LET'S START!
Introduction
When you’re working on eating healthy, dining out can be daunting. An innocent menu turns into a minefield of possible diet disasters.
We are all free to choose, weather to eat food that is ready but will hurt our heath later on or putting a little effort to cook our own delicious meal and avoid sickness. The price that we will pay is just the same we just need the put a little effort.
INTERVENTION DAY 1 (INTRODUCTION TO MODULE)
3rd November 2020
Person in charge: Sr Rogayyah
Finally its d-day of our module! We are all so nervous and excited to meet our participants. We began our day as early as 8.30 am and greet our participants. We ask the participants whether they have took their breakfast and some of them responded that she bring breakfast from home. Some of them responded that they are still not taking breakfast. While engaging with participants about their breakfast, we have made some poll regarding their frequency of eating outside and also cooking and eating at home.
Poll on frequency of eating outside
Poll on frequency of cookinga and eating at home
Through the observation from the poll, it can be seen that most of them will eat outside once a week and most of them always cook and eat at home.
Person in charge: Sr Amalia
At 10:00 am sharp, Sr Amalia began to introduce our programme module and each of the group members. Each of our members introduced themselves and greets the participants. She also presented programme modules that will be conducted started from 3rd till 7th November which are 'Mind Over Munch' module which will focusing on the tricks of choosing healthily while eating outside, 'A Lil' Trick to Eat' module which be focusing on the alternative healthy cooking method, 'Goodful Food' which will be focusing on recipe and food modification that can be opt for healthier choices, nutrition live talk session and lastly is the healthy plate and recipe challenge. Apart from these activities, various posters and infographics will also be posted in the Telegram group and social media such as My Diet Buddy's official Instagram account, Facebook, Twitter and Youtube. Today, we are only focusing more on the introduction of our group focused title which is eating outside/ food modification. We also presented a teaser video and module schedule regarding our module activities. The module activities included are tips on how to eat outside healthily, healthy cooking method and menu modifications. All of these activities will be presented in form of poster, info graphic and also video. In this current session, we only focusing on introducing all group members and the activities that were to be held by us. While engaging with participants, we made a poll to be answered by participants on which one is more cost-effective and cheaper (eating outside vs eat at home). Most of the participant agree that eating at home is more cheaper compared to when eating outside.
Poll on frequency which option is more cost-effective and cheaper
Then we presented our poster on "Betul ke kos makan di luar lagi murah ?" to enlighten the participants regarding cost when making the two options; eating outside and eating at home. In the poster we have make comparison between cost when eating at home and eating outside.
Poster on which option is more cost-effective and cheaper
So let’s put it all to the test and decide which is ultimately better for your money – eating out or cooking at home? So, for family households, cooking at home can be so much cheaper since you can buy the ingredients in bulk, and plan your cooking for the entire week or month.
Less food isn’t necessarily the answer. Calorie dense foods are not always filling and your total calories can add up quickly. When trying to lose weight and control blood sugar levels restaurant food can have a negative impact. Nutrient dense foods will fill you and are actually beneficial to your body. Eating more 'whole & healthy foods' helps to get enough nutrients in and especially fill up your tummy. All of this reduces your hunger feeling.
Person in charge: Sr Syafiqah
Then at 3.00 pm we continue our next sharing about food pyramid in order to highlight that the important key in practicing a healthy eating is actually by following the recommendation that have been suggested by the Malaysian Food Pyramid.
Malaysian Food Pyramid poster
After that, the next sharing topic is about the benefits of eating at home. We presented to them a poster from Kementrian Kesihatan Malaysia (KKM) the poster outline 3 benefits of eating at home which are by eating at home we can control the portion size of our meals, ensure that our family members eat at the right meal time and use the healthy cooking method such as steam, boil and grilled. Besides, we have also presented our own poster regarding this topic to further elaborate more on the advantages that we can get when we eat at home.

Person in charge: Sr Nadhira
Our last sharing was conducted at 5.30pm. We presented to them a poster about the difficulty that people usually faced when eating outside. A part from the constraints stated on the poster, we also asked them to express what other constraints they have experienced when eating out. One of the participant questioned us why do they feel hard to choose healthy food over the unhealthy one, even though they knew that the healthy choice is available out there. She include an example like fried banana "pisang goreng" is much more testier then unfried banana. We then explained to her that what makes it taste better is due to the fat content which contributes to a high calorie content. However, we can still consume pisang goreng but in order to eat healthily we have to control our portion and its frequency as well as make sacrifice over the desire for unhealthy food.
Besides, there is also a participant that responded she tend to lose control every time she buys food outside, when initially she only wanted to buy laksa at pasar malam but also bought other food that caught her eyes. The solution that have been provided to her is to plan what food she really want to buy before she goes to the place and only brings enough money to pay for the food.

Reflection Day 1
Everything
went smoothly for the first day of our intervention! Yayy Alhamdulillah. It was
great to be able to share about healthy eating to the community. A lot of
engagement has been made between the participants and the committee. They were
super sporting! It turns out our intervention session, the sharing does not
only come from us, but the participants also did share some of meaningful
sharing such as how do they as a housewife or working wife planned their
cooking schedule at home. For instance, by planning everyday menus throughout
the week will make their upcoming days easier for them. We also thought that by
pre-scheduling our menu can help us to actually plan for a healthier cooking
method and preparation. Next, for working women, the tips they shared was to
make frozen meal during the weekend or free time and all they need to do during
the working days is to just heat it up at their office. Therefore, those who
are working and do not have much time to prepare food can also bring home cook
meals to the office and reduce the frequency of eating out. During our engagement
with the participants we have also discussed among our team members on each
response we made to answer every diet-related question coming from them. By
doing this we can ensure that our responses have answered the main point that
the participants addressed as well as to ensure we have provided them with the
best solution and comprehensive answer.

We have prepared posters then distributed to the participants. Then, we explained more details
regarding the content of the poster. Some of the participants ask us regarding eating out such as how
to start becoming more aware and conscious regarding the food intake during going out. So we answered
it always hard to start a positive journey. But if we start the first step and keep motivated it is not
imposible 😊. There is also participant that share their own tips and habits while going out. one of
them said that they always bring water from home so when they feel like drinking sugary drinks they
will drink the plain water 👍😆.

At 2.00 pm Syafiqah shares the story from Nutritionist Shah, which was taken from KKM. Many participants respond to the story told. it is true that most of us still do not realize that we drink too many sugary drinks when eating outside.

are truly grateful.
It was amazing for us to discuss how to stay
healthy during eating out with all ofthe participants.
A great deal of interaction
has been made throughout the day. The participants also shared some of their personal tips on how to eat healthily outside. For instance, a few participants told us that they brought a water bottle when eating at restaurants or food courts not just to cut unwanted calories but also to save money in the long run. In addition, they shared a lot of their experiences and struggles in trying to choose better alternatives while eating out. Participants showed interest in today's contents and had stated that it was both interesting and informative.
Chapter 2: A Lil' Trick to Eat

Person in charge: Sr Rogayyah
Third day of the module! Here we go, phewh. We began our day as early as 8.00 am and did some discussion on our team Whatsapp group before beginning the module. At 8:30 am sharp, Sr Rogayyah greeted our participants in My Diet Buddy's official Telegram group. We asked the participants' feedback on yesterdays' module and did a little recap! A little more engagement and greetings by asking the participants on the morning breakfast they had. We took the chance to blast and announce on our nutrition live talk which will be held on 7th November through Instagram and Facebook live. On the other hand, we also opened a session for the participants to ask anything related to any matters to be answered during the talk held. We managed to collect few questions from the participants through the Telegram medium, half of them had been collected beforehand through Instagram ask medium and had taken into the question-to-be-answered list!

Short video on healthy cooking method
Person in charge: Sr Rogayyah
10:00 am
While this method does require some oil in the pan, it should only be a moderate amount — just enough to get a nice sear on your meat and vegetables.
In terms of getting maximum nutrition without sacrificing flavor, grilling is a great option. It requires minimal added fats and imparts a smoky flavor while keeping meats and veggies juicy and tender.
Cooking anything from fresh veggies to fish fillets this way allows them to stew in their own juices and retain all their natural goodness. And no need for fat-laden additions to up the moisture. It’s always good to add a little seasoning first, whether that’s a sprinkle of salt or a squeeze of lemon juice.
Person in charge: Sr Syafiqah
3:00pm
5:00pm
Upon tasting a perfectly fried food, people often swoon and exclaim, “It’s so unhealthy and greasy!” But here’s the happy truth: If you fry in the right oil and follow our guidelines carefully, fried foods can have a place in a healthy diet. It’s all in the technique.
Person in charge: Sr Nadhira
8:00pm
Buying your own food at the grocery store can be a positive and healthy change that can vastly improve your diet—that is, if you're reading nutrition labels and making informed buying decisions. However, new data shows that most shoppers are still turning a blind eye to what's going in their carts… and bodies. So, here are the tips to shop grocery healthily!
Person in charge: Sr Nadhira
Interestingly enough, grocery stores and food manufacturers are providing so many easy and very healthy items, which are perfect for making a few swaps to kick up the nutritional content of your daily meals without much extra effort. Here's eight easy and healthy grocery store swaps!
Person in charge: Sr Izzah
Throughout the intervention day
These two posting are used as our engagement with participants, so we released those two and asked the participants to take part and tag us at @epicura14. Much like the game ‘Bingo’, we use it so that our Instagram story will allow the current followers to enjoy virtual Bingo with their experiences. Again, this bingo story will help in engagement and reach for the participants and followers. Throughout the day, we also use Instagram story which has many engaging stickers such as chat stickers, which will let the participants start a conversation in a new Direct thread among followers and to ask any questions.
😃
Reflection Day 3
Another day went smoothly on the day of our intervention! Alhamdulillah. It was great to be able to share about healthy eating to the community. A lot of engagement has been made between the participants and the committee. They were super sporting and suportive to each other! It turns out our intervention session, the sharing does not only come from us, but the participants also did share some of meaningful sharing with us all. Upon our sharing on the healthier method to opt for, so many of the participants shared their experiences cooking various recipes using various healthy methods such as using air fryer to cook protein sources like fish and chicken while making a soup when it involves with vegetables! Many of them claimed that they rarely use deep frying method as they already know the consequences to it. They enjoyed their way using air frying method as it is very convenient and easy! An air fryer is just so convenient and can help you whip up amazing meals in just half the time. The speed, ease, and consistency of the air fryer can help people feel more comfortable in the kitchen, thus many of them opt for air frying method as a healthy alternative cooking method! Many of the had reduced using deep-frying and other cooking methods that use a lot of oil and rather use healthier methods such as blanching, roasting, baking, stir-frying or steaming.
On the other hand, some of the participants also shared on cooking as a therapeutic session for them, because it encourages creativity. Cooking also makes people feel good about themselves because it’s a way for them to nurture others. We're so glad that they enjoyed our sharing session and bombarded us with so many positive responses that we also did not expect 😂During our engagement with the participants we have also discussed among our team members on each response we made to answer every diet-related question coming from them. By doing this we can ensure that our responses have answered the main point that the participants addressed as well as to ensure we have provided them with the best solution and comprehensive answer. We use simple and direct language that avoid jargons when communicating with participants that has specific meaning to the participants. Once they are clear about their expectations, we let the participants set their own goals. Ask them if they are working on seeking on a new specific knowledge or habit on nutrition and make it a part of the evaluation. In other words, in order to motivate the participants, a performance goal needs to be a true goal, something our heart desires, but doesn't yet have within easy reach. That said, don't make the goal to be hard. Some of the participants shared their expectation to have a clearer image and realistic ways to be healthy during eating outside that we planned on sharing more on the other remaining left for us!
So, be prepared when you go out to eat. Healthy choices can be found if you know what to look for and how to ask. Bon appetit!
Chapter 3: Goodful Food
6th November 2020
Person in charge: Sr Rogayyah
As usual we started to greet our participants at 8.00 am. We had a little chit-chat asking about each other day and the meal they had for breakfast. At 10.00 am, we started to present our poster about general tips on healthy cooking and ways to reduce fat in cooking.
Person in charge: Sr Nadhira
Next, at 11.00 am we continue to share about tips to reduce salt in cooking and healthier substitutions that can be done in recipe.
Before lunch time, at 12.00 pm we presented another poster about tips to encourage children to eat healthily.
Person in charge: Sr Maya
At 2.00 pm we started to share on modified recipe such as Nasi Lemak sihat, Rendang Tok, Banana cake, masak lemak cili padi and onde-onde keledek. Most of us accused Nasi Lemak as the main contributor to the weight
gain. Is it possible to have healthy plate of Nasi Lemak? Yes, Nasi Lemak was
good enough and contain various nutrition. Unfortunately, we tend to over
consume and lead to excessive calorie intake per serving of Nasi Lemak. The key
was consuming it by following healthy plate Malaysia. And follow this recipe
with some healthier modification done. All the best!
Is that possible to have healthy Rendang? I don’t believe it. Not to
worry, how about trying out our recipe of Rendang Tok without single used of
oil and coconut milk. How about the taste? Give it a try dear, and don’t surprise
if it will give you the same taste but healthier. Wish you the best!
Sr Izzah had prepared this sweet potato onde onde cooking demo special for sharing with the participants. With the added sweet potato mash, the onde onde are chewy and also tender. Plus, the dough is so much easier to handle, making the onde onde way easier to wrap and cook than usual. You know what? After cooking these healthier rich-in-fiber yummier onde onde, I would rather use this recipe than the traditional one that uses tapioca flour and glutinous rice flour.
Ayam Masak Lemak Cili Api or Chicken in Spicy Creamy Sauce is one of the staple food you can find in Malay house specially in Negeri Sembilan state. Cooked in creamy coconut milk with loads of bird's eye chilies, so sure make you want to run to the nearest water fountain. So for this recipe, I omit the coconut milk and add low fat milk instead, it still got the same taste, thanks to the fresh herbs that I used and it fairly simple to prepare too.
And not to spoil things for you but it’s oh-so-good. And quick and easy. And totes delicious. All my fave things!
Plus is there any better smell than that of banana cake baking in the oven? It’s heavenly, don’t you think? I really promise you that this easy healthy banana bread recipe will be a success. Just follow these easy steps.
The reason it's so healthy is because there isn't any refined sugar in this recipe. That means no brown sugar, no granulated sugar and no powdered sugar. It's sweetened mostly with the bananas and a little bit of lakanto used as calorie-free and healthy alternative of sugar. Both of them together add just the right sweetness!
Delicious and easy to bake healthy banana cake!
Person in charge: Sr Maya
Hello there!
We are back again to share with you some interesting info on milk. Let’s read this interesting topic regarding milk. Have fun!
Do you know that oat helps in weight loss? Interesting right? But how? Yes, let’s learn about oat.
Unfortunately, consuming oat will lead to increasing weight if you do not control the PORTION. Bear in mind, eat with moderation and recommended amount.
I want to try eating oat, but I don’t like the taste and they were
bland. So I did not choose oat.
Hey, wait. Don’t worry. How about you give it a try by consuming oat using this recipe. I’m really sure you will like it. Best of luck to you!
Reflection Day 4
It is nearly reach to end for
online coaching session by our team. The enthusiasm shown by the participants
was very satisfying. The feedback came from participants were very positive. We began as early in the morning and receive many
responses from the participants. The topic that covered today excite most of us
as it was about recipe modification. Most of the participants shared their
healthy modified recipe. But, before we share more interesting recipes, we need
to get acquainted with the ingredients used in cooking. We started to detail
out the common used ingredients in cooking which contribute to unhealthy meals.
From here we tried to come out with the best healthier substitution by
maintaining the originality of the taste. As we share on tips to reduce the
uses of sodium and fat in cooking, some of the participants comes out with
amazing tips by sharing their healthy option in cooking. For instance, instead
of using tomato paste they used fresh tomato to produce a natural sour taste.
Reaching to lunch time, we release the poster on tips to encourage children to
eat healthy. Fortunately, there were participants thanked us for providing the
info as they faced this problems. They acknowledge the new ways in improving
their children appetite. Videos on creative food for children from YouTube
shared in the Telegram.
The most exciting part finally arrived, which was healthy version of Nasi Lemak and Rendang Tok recipes. Other than that, recipe on onde-onde keledek, ayam masak lemak, and banana cake with healthier option also been shared by our group. Starting at this point, the culmination of the sharing of recipes between participants was actively shared. As most of the participants were married and a mother, interesting recipe were shared and suitable for family meals among Malaysian. There was so much to be learned from today’s sharing. As a committee and a student, most of the time we make a changes or modification by learning through the books or during classes. However, it was surprising as the participants able to share many healthy recipe which was inherited from other generation. In fact there were participants who successfully created their own recipes based on their experiences in exploring healthy meals. Lastly, we as a commitee gained more knowledge while engaging with the community. Instead of learning from the books, this experience taught us a lot how to be creative in living healthily. Nothing teaches us better than our own experiences. Indeed.
