Looking For Weight Loss Buddy..lets Stay Motivated Together!

Hi, please count me in.

I want to loose 5 kg and that I have been trying on and off since long time. This time I really want to be responsible and do workout regularly.

I will update my diet along with workout details everyday here.

I am glad you opened this thread and happy that everyone is updating daily which I really needed to motivate myself.

 

Guys, hope you all are fit & healthy.
Please count me in....

I need to lose max 10 kgs in 4 months & I hope it is doable with basic life style changes as I did the same before many times.
(Just that, I don't stick with a plan, and with my busy work/life matters, I end up gaining back everything).

Nevertheless, I've decided to start now.. so that, I would look good on Christmas. So, that's the motive behind.

I started the day with a glass of warm water + Lemon juice + honey!

Took my breakfast at 11 am - which means almost 14+ hrs of intermittent fasting since last night dinner. In between, I only had water.
You are free to drink black tea/coffee/lemon+honey etc... but strictly without milk or sugar.

I had 2 slices of bread + 1 omelette as breakfast.
1 medium banana as desert

I will have 1 cup of brown rice/fish & Egg plant curry for lunch.
1 banana as desert

As for evening snack,
I will have a cup of Ginger tea - with 1/2 spoon of brown sugar
1 small patties - backed one as fried ones contains more oil - this one is optional based on availability ;(

Dinner would be 5 medium string hoppers (on a smaller side)
Coconut Sambal (smaller qantity)
Fish curry
1 banana as desert

*** Bananas are my weakness, and I really need them to manage my sweet tooth. Else, I may end up having sweets or chocolates, which is tricky.

As for the exercise....
I did gardening for 1 hr early in the morning
It included sweeping, lifting the pots, etc...
I cleaned my home for 40 mins
Including sweeping, mopping, dusting etc.... and FYI, my home is huge.

I will be doing 20 crunching exercise/tummy exercise + 20 mins of skipping in the evening
I will also walk not jogging, but walking relaxly) to the beach with my H for about 30m with my H later tonight.

This will probably be my day for the next 30 days or so.....

I hope to keep my calories below 1800 per day, and I do the check using my fitness pal app.
I have a smart watch that counts burnt calories while working, walking etc.... So, I know how much I can burn daily.

Let's update each other's day... and count our weights after 10 days to feel the magic.

All the very best friends... Let's start
