New Diet chart with my experience !

Hi Ladies,

I reduced 9 pounds that is 4kgs. by following GM diet. And my husband reduced 5 pounds by having normal food.

Here I want to tell you one thing. I struggled and did this. But without much struggle, my husband reduced 5 pounds, by having normal food during day time and had dinner with me. That is, in the night he took just fruits and soup with me. He reduced this much. So I want to follow his type. What do you say?

With normal life style (ofcourse with caution on oily foods) by modifying the dinner if we can achieve, such a reduction that is good I think. I did tread mill for 10 to 15 min per day and he did 25 to 30 min. per day.

So after my experience with GM diet this time, I came to a conclusion like this. No need to diet. As I said before “NO feasting NO fasting” is better than these dieting up to me. Because with the following dieting habit My husband reduced 5 lbs in a week and I followed GM diet and I reduced only 9. With much struggle I reduced 9 and with out any problem he reduced 5 means I want to follow that type of diet only. I think you will accept this. If you also feel the same thing means continue studying and give me support. Let us try this type of diet and see the results after 15 days. :cheersCheers.

In this thread I want to give my diet which I followed while doing GM diet and my husband's diet on the same week. Then I am going to give a
New dite plan to follow. let us hope for the best. Here we go..........

Fruits and Fruit Juice day - 1st day

According to my dietition, She told me to take (I dont have any complaints like sugar or heart problem. touch wood) raw fenugreek seeds with a glass of water early in the morning in empty stomach.

This she said would help improve lubrication of our joints. Since for vegetarians, who need to do exercise like walking need this type of supplement, to avoid joint pain and bone wear. I have been doing this for the past two years and I feel the benefit.

During dieting, since we take very less food in the dinner, morning there is chance of acidity in the empty stomach. This fenugreek will neutralise this acidity and a person having such problems like ulcer etc., will completely get cured of it.

One of my co tenents in India who had the problem of ulcer got the benifit due to this practice with in two months. So first thing in the morning I will take that and after some time when I feel hungry, I will take honey with warm water. I followed both even I did this diet plan.

And full day I took hot water and I mentioned them here.But other than that also I took water at room temp. and some times chill water.:tongue I will take plenty of water.

Tomatoes and Sprout day 5

On 5th day we are suppose to have 4 tomatoes and sprout. When speaking about sprouts, only green gram sprout is best. Because it reduces fat.

To prepare sprout, just wash and clean the green gram dal. 1 cup raw green gram will be more than enough for 2 days.

Soak it for 18 to 24 hours. In between you can wash and change the water. So that it will not smell bad. But while washing dont press the green skin. Just wash it and again fill the water.

After 18 hours, drain and put it in a drainer and cover it with a cloth and keep it in a corner, where you feel some what dark. Or other wise, you can put them in a box and keep it in the fridge.

If you keep it in outside you will get sprouts quickly and if you keep it in the fridge it will take 2 to3 days. so do as per your wish and need. Just sprinkle water now and then on that.

That is all after 6 to 8 hours you can see small small white sprouts. You can keep them as it is till how much length you want the sprouts shoud be. Then use them as salad or make dal or what ever type you want. But here in this diet plan, we can take it as salad only.

So here is the recipe of the salad.

Here I am attching the photo of the sprout and sprout salad.

Ingredients:

1 cup sprout
1 tomato
1 carrot
1 cucumber
2 green chilly
2 sp Lemon juice
salt as per taste

Method:

Just mix all and eat.
Your yummy sprout salad is ready to eat.
Try and give me a feed back.

One word about GreenGram dal

The normal green gram itself very good for weight reduction. It is good if we use that atleast once in 15 days. These grams wash out our fats which are coated in our vines. You can eat as it is or you can make it like curry or dal. Any form is ok. Even you can make dosa, idly etc.,

You can add beet root, cabbage, coriander leaves, mint leaves etc.,
Or if you want to give this to children, you can add pomegranate, apple or banana and little sugar. Some how we have to take this regularly.

You can sun dry this sprout and make powder and make 'kanji' and drink. that is very healthy and old people can drink them. ( who dont have teeth).
