Celebrating Fitness and Diet Forums - IL 10th Anniversary Celebrations - Day 4/10

IL_Admin · Mar 22, 2015

As part of our 10th Anniversary Celebrations, let's celebrate the Fitness and Diet forums.

We all know that health is everything. But it sometimes does take a backseat due to our personal reasons - work, family etc. But you can easily get back on track with our Health and Fitness forums.

The biggest take back from the health forums is the motivation and support that it lends to anyone trying to get back on their feet after an ailment or trying to get more fit and healthy. And if you have any questions regarding gynecology, our members have helped with the suggestions that worked for them. Our health forums are a gallery of tips, healthy recipes, simple natural cures, diet and exercise plans that worked.

And if you are on the path to get more fit, how awesome is it that you will find friends who will motivate and encourage you by joining you virtually. Do you have such a buddy in IL or is there a post or thread that had made you feel more confident regarding your health goals and questions? Share here and let us know.

Congrats IL for celebrating 10 years.....Happy 10th Anniversary to all ILs!!!!!! Before my life was going as it is....No proper dieting....Lots of sweets and after two deliveries too much usage of ghee and overeating made me like a balloon. One day while browsing I saw this Indus ladies website....I just go through the site.It was really interesting. First I should thank to all IL administrators to do this wonderful job. Special Kudoos!!!! On this occasion I should thank so many person who made me understand what is health and our body is not a dustbin to eat whatever at any time. This forum and threads gave me lot of motivation. "If they can why I can't?" There are lot of people I cant tell them name by name as it is a big list. I can specially thank some of them who played an important role in my weight loss journey especially @Shiva Choubey , @Shanvy @Krishnamma and many more(sorry for not writing all names).....I thank each and everyone of them on this special occasion. I am not very good in writing. Thank you IL !!!!!!

I have been a lurker of this site from early 2006, and contemplated a lot to join in 2007. and even till 2009 i tried to skip this forum and one day it was @shivachoubey's post and @shvap_786 who made me wonder what were they doing in this forum, and by 2010 i am hooked to this forum..

Learnt and grew a lot in this forum. started with weight loss, moved to staying fit and healthy and now it is more about a lifestyle..

seekingbless · Mar 25, 2015

dear @shanvy maam, it is such a honour having my name mentioned by u on this thread. u are truly my inspiration to work out and lose weight.
despite having several health issues, u never fail to bounce up and fight all the odds to stay healthy for your kids and family. I really admire u for this.

http://My 3rd time weight loss challenge: Working mom with 2 kids, by @AnithaPartha was my first inspiration to work out daily.
http://Come on, lets us move our feet and shake that stubborn weight a little by Shanvy maam and http://150 Minutes of Exercise Per Week by @SunNaa the monthly 100 miles thread by @breeze01 is my motivation for not giving up and boast to keep me going.

special thanks to my work out buddies who without fail like my post on this forum.
@deepv, @saarang @Buds, @shodin @simply_doubtful @breeze01,
good luck to all

Fitness thread on this forum had certainly made big changes in my life.
