Ladies its a great feeling, to reach what u wanted, and i need to push myself further to reduce some 10 lbs more. i know its going to be a very difficult task, but i will try it.
But Before that i thought of rewarding myself for a one week break from my low- Carb Food but will still stick to my Gym schedules.

ALL the Best to Ladies out there , who are trying to loose weight and Wish them all Sucess in their Efforts.

Cheers

Hi Abhi N All ILs

My daily diet is as usual no change. I am v v strict in this.

But after my return I want to continue both ex.n diet strictly. OK

M S Lakshmi

has anyone tired doing sit ups as a part of your exercise,i have started it from today will keep u all updated about its results

I am also not happy about my weight but due to work schedule problems,
am not able to regulate my diet and end up eating just about anything.

Vaidehi, what exactly did you do or eat?

Can any of you suggest some simple low fat indian recepies?

Anita

Hi Anita,

Intially i just gave up completely on sugar,Refined Foods(maida,Starchy foods) and soda drinks. This Helped me a lot in loosing weight. I drink nearly 10 glasses of water a day and take Raw cabbage either for lunch or dinner.i take only skimmed milk for coffee or tea.

And i Started going to Gym regularly and made it a point to burn 300 Cals a day for one hour. I go to gym almost 6 weeks a day and take steam bath once a week.

I take rice only once daily with lots of dhals and veggies. And strictly avoided choco,candies and icecream. This has helped me loose 15 pounds in 2 .5 mths . I also take lot of Kollu (horsegram) in my diet. Intially for a week u might find it tough but then u will get used to it

Anitha i know, these are all Boring rules which we read in some books or internet for weightloss. But belive me it does helps us if followed very strictly.

All the best for u and let me know if u need any more details

Cheers
vaidehi

Dear Vaidehi,

Thanks a lot for the detailed reply. Some queries?

Do you eat the cabbage completely raw? Not even boiled?
What exactly is Kollu? is it something like sprouts?

Would you be able to tell me about some low carb recepies?

By the way which part of the world do you live in and what do
you do , i mean professionally?

Regards
Anita

Hi Vaidehi

reading thru your reply to Anita motivated me to start on those lines. Thanks for the tips. How do you eat the raw cabbage? as a salad or just plain?
Will start and let you know
