For a Fitter and Better Me

@chillbreeze @BDivya @PriyaSrini and all the other ladies on this forum, a big hello

How have you been!

It's really nice to see you all posting updates.
I'm sorry I haven't been around. Ever since my India trip I've been busy with one thing or the other.
Which also led to a weight gain of 5kgs
My last weight loss was end of Jan(67kg)
It was too difficult to stay on track in India , everywhere you turn there's food, literally!
Even in the bedroom,there's some kind of snacks, and the people who shower their love with food(bless them!)
I'm partly to blame,somehow this thought " it's going to be a long time I'll be back, so let me have this biryani, let me have this jamun " and so was the list of unpardonable calories.
I ended up not fitting into clothes that I bought during the shopping I did the first week of my trip
After coming back, the "I miss my mom, I miss my home" feeling was very well substituted by plentiful carbs, cakes, pizza and endless takeaway.
The worst thing was I haven't stepped into McDonald's for the past four years, stayed clean, but was tempted twice to buy food there(worstu)
Enough was enough last week of May, as the weight was slowly creeping up to 72 and I didn't want to end up at 80 like before.
So from then on, back on track, followed strict diet and exercise,it's almost first week of July, now have lost 2.5kgs, at 69.5 now
Now that summer is in full bloom, hoping to lose 12 kgs more before Christmas (2kg/month) fingers crossed.

I try to drink protein shakes to stay away from snacks and junk.
Also I've included nuts and granola bars.
Good luck to everyone on this thread!
Let's burst those stubborn pounds

 

wow thats really an inspiration purna can u share ur strict diet and excersies so tht we also can benefit out of it?????

 

guys, include me in. I have been unsuccessfully trying to lose weight. I have not started controlling my food yet. I run for about 20 mins on treadmill everyday at speed of 6.5. Two days a week I have dance classes so one hour of the class just exhausts me completely.

The point is I have been doing this for the past 3-4 months but still no weight loss. Guess its my no-restriction policy for food. I want to remedy that and start being healthy. I am still planning on diet but not sure what to include.

I currently weigh 76kgs. I want to go down at least 10 kgs.

You guys have inspired me...I will plan my diet today!!!

Yeah...challenge taken!!! Weightloss, here I come!

 

Hi chillbreeze, thanks for the warm welcome. Am yet to go on a diet. There was a functionin my house so with all the sweets and savouries its seeming impossible. I am so focused on finishing those off first and then start.

Can't resist tasty food!!!
