Weight Loss Buddy

Hi,all!!!
I am a new member here.
Actually, the main reason I joined this site is to find some sort of guidance for my own weight loss.

I am 5 ft tall and weigh 69kgs.
I have started dieting, and I am on my 3rd week now, I started on 70.5 kgs, which means, I have lost around 1.5kgs in 2 weeks.

I have not been doing much physical activities, I go for walking around 3 times a week, but that too light walking. I need to reach my ideal weight of 50 kgs.

I have an important event coming up and I am hoping if I could reach around 63 kgs first by 31st of Jan 09.

I would be happy to be a part of all of you here who are determined to lose weight.

Thanks

Hi Pretti....

dw u will get on track slowly, just dnt give up okay? and i wuldnt suggest the juice diet or anything because its too harsh on ur body..u will only loose water weight that is weight that u will regain once u stop the juice diet...the efficient way to loose weight is to eat healthy =D and only eat fruits at night =D

luv Ruby

I think i will try to subsidize 2 meals with juice, as a friend of mine did a juice diet, which she said she lost lots of weight and it detoxed her body!

Hi Pink Rubies

I will absolutely abide by those rules

All my life, I have planned for my weight loss umpteen number of times and I have never stuck by. So, this time, I want to come up with a plan such that it becomes an unbreakable day to day habit.

Overall Weight Loss Goal - 20 Kgs

Small Term Goal (STG #1) - Loose 0.5 Kg by Dec 31, 2008
STG #2 - Loose 2 Kgs by Jan 31, 2009

So, marching towards STG #1

Exercise - 10,000 Steps / Day
Pranayama - 10 Mins

Diet
Avoid Sugar and fried foods like a plague

So, here I'm throwing a Challenge for all of Us

Challenge #1 - Dec 22 - Dec 28
No Sugar ( a spoon in coffee/tea allowed - maximum; if u can skip even that - well and good)
No Fried Items
The challenge is now open to all. Record your progress end of day today - 22nd or by tomorrow

Hi, Pink Rubies...

Thanks a lot!!!

Yes, I will definitely follow the rules...no prob :)
So, as I hv said before...I have already started a proper diet and I am on my 3rd week.

My diet in general:
Morning: 1cup of cornflakes + milk
Lunch: Vege + Lean Meat (Chicken/Fish - cooked without oil) + 1 Whole Grain Bread
Dinner: Vege + Lean Meat (Chicken/Fish- cooked without oil) OR Vege Soup
Snacks: Fruits (mostly apples)
Drinks: Water + Green Tea( at least 1 cup daily)

I have stopped coffee totally, and I do not take any sweets/fried food n I try to avoid all the unhealthy food as much as possible.

My Long Term Goal is to lose 20 kgs....that is to reach 50kgs. And I am giving myself enough time for that...maybe by mid-2009.

But, I am trying to reach atleast 63kgs by 31st Jan 09. (Do u all think its possible/healthy enough to reach that goal in such a period of time?)

Anyway, as Kashvya mentioned, I have always wanted to lose weight too.
But, due to my lazyness and of course, lack of discipline nothing really happened. But, this time, I am extremely determined to do it for my own good.

So, ya...
Gd luck to all...:D

Good luck ladies!

Lustre moon and Kashvya glad to have you on this thread to join us, the more the merrier! I think both of you are going the right way in order to lose weight, just hope i have the determination as everyone else!

Rubies i dropped the juice idea, as you said its harsh!

Yes i suppose eating sensibly and working out will only do the trick!
