Fat to Fit Journey

Hi ILites

Good Day! I'm new to Indus Ladies and reading some of the posts in this Keep Fit and Maintain Shape has motivated me to start my own thread

Member Aishu22 's - My Inspiring Weight Loss Story has insired me to create one thread my track my weight loss journey. If you are reading this post Aishu22, Thank You So Much

I have always been a plump and "healthy " girl through out my childhood. Only, college and now my career has absolutely turned me into a morbid obese person

Setting aside my inhibitions, I'm currently 82 Kgs at 5' 3" Tall. I'm married and have no kids at the moment. Though my gynae has assured me that my weight might not hinder me from conceiving, it would defenitely cause pregnancy related problems. I'm assuming these could be high BP, diabetes and so on.

I have started these weight loss journeys lots and lots of times. But like most resolutions, they have been the most fragile and have always been broken

However, This time it is going to be different. I'm going to make a difference not just to me and my body but also to all my friends and relatives who care and are concerned for me.

Here's a toast to my "Fat to Fit" Journey

All your suggestions, thoughts, help, support are welcome. I would also be pleased in somebody could join me and support me in this struggle

Here's to an healthy life for all of us

Cheers Kashvya

Kashvya,

All the best to your achieving the fitness goal.

First, get your self assessed for the your weight gain. do you have any health reasons for the weight. if not start....today.

Hey Shanvy

Thanks for the reply

If I can shed another inhibition, I can boldly state that my "snacking" habits are the main reason for my weight gain

Though I have not had any formal assessments, would you have a suggestion on where I can get these assessments done?

Also, would you know of any dieticians in Chennai? I tried searching for Dieticians (especially near Velachery/Guindy/Madippak) thru Just Dial but wasnt successful

hi Kashvya

For all the planning that I did yesterday, Day 1 was a disaster

Woke up quite late with no time for a walk. Immediately drank coffee - Forgot about Krishnamma's idea to eat fenu greek and honey / luke warm water

Ate breakfast and rushed to office. All my planning down the drainsbonk

Hi Kashvya,

It happens to everyone. But dont worry and also dont stop your journey. just start from tomorrow that is all.
take lots of hot water and have only fruits for dinner. that will do wonders. really we all lost many kgs if few months. and also we are not gaining it back like GM diet. so it is easy and safe to follow 'kitchuppa's diet' so come and join with us like she said, you can see a new young and slim kashvya in July 09.
cheer up man. all the best for you dear.
