    Dear Anandvaruna,

    This time the craving and metabolism both increases. I do not diet during these days and I eat ice creams. Try avoiding junk as much as possible and eat wholesome healthy home made food. You can eat something tasty (like homemade chines, if you like, during this time)

    First reduce the weight and eventually they will go. Once you have lost around 10 kgs start weight training your arms, then will tone up.

    Do it after you get up and then you can have your breakfast. This way you need not keep a check on your eating timings.

    Brown bread, multigrain bread is definitely better than white bread. Be it white or brown, just Google the calories in a medium/large size bread slice and that should be your referring line. So lets say 1 medium size bread has 60 calories then if you have 2 then you have 120 calories from bread itself.

    Yeh, my husband fasts all the days. As far as I understand the food available in fast they are all carbohydrate and starch based.

    The best thing to do in fast is to avoid all fruit diet./ I have seen lots of people doing it. The thing is it will make you extremely hungry and weak too.

    Whatever you eat, make it in less oil(stick to 2 tsp oil rule).

    Here are few recipes, I will be uploading more during this week.

    Navratri Special - Vrat Waali idli. - IndusLadies

    Navratri Special - Sabudana - Sinhgada Drop Oil Bhajiyas - IndusLadies

    Navratri Special - Salad - IndusLadies

    Microwave Sabudana Khichadi - IndusLadies

    Hope this helps.

    Have a great day ahead.

    regards

    Hi everybody.... have been a silent reader of this thread for a long time.. did write one or two comments.. but havent been active in the thread. Have been active for last 2 mths working out at least 45 mins a day of cardio ... trying to catch up 5 days in a week. Sadly havent lost any weight... may be cos there have been slip ups in diet. But do feel great after workouts .... wanted to share the workouts that I am following. Leslie Sansone walking videos. I have abt 7 of these and I do 3 miles every day. If you are in US .. its easily available there, and also can be viewed on exercisetv. I have got mine from there....and its really helpful. Great cardio workout and also low impact. So pls do try..... start with 1 mile and progress to 3 or 5 miles... real burning workouts. I need to lose at least 20 kilos and this is a start... but am happy for having found one workout that I can be consistent with... cos others do fizz out. I know a lot has been written abt leslie sansone videos here.. just thought I will add my updates....

    Gosh!! Ur such a terrific cook Shiva!! i luvd d way u made dat tomato soup for navratris:bowdown i just luvd it n goin to make it tonite!! today is 3rd fast, n till nw i must tell you dat i have not eaten kuttu atta puris. on first day, i tried making rotis out it on tava :idea and it came out realllllllly well with very little oil. I cant live on Fruit diet so its a BIG NO for me. I am bringing my food from home as on any normal day.

    Infact, i am eating these idlis of samak chawal since day one but i liked the idea of using cabbage in those. i eat lot of curd and salt less lassis which i get from home.

    One thing i am avoiding these days is workout coz not eating wholesome food (or may be psychologically) is giving me little tiring feeling whole time. so i am taking it easy for this week.

    Tk care and keep helping others
    Luv u for this gesture of urs!!!

    DearRidha,

    Nice to hear from you. Its normal to be caught up with situations and feeling down, we all go through this phase.

    Just make a mental note of your priorities and start from there. Take small and slow steps.

    Lots and lots of love to you.

    regards

    Dear Anandvaruna,

    Thanks for finding my posts on navratri diet useful. Today I made roties without adding any potato or arbi to it, it came out fine. I will upload the recipe tomorrow.

    You are doing good. If you cannot do heavy workout please do continue your light walks.

    Want to ask you, where can I find wheat barn in Delhi (it will be great if you can tell me where I can find it in Gurgoan.)

    Have a great day ahead.

    regards
