Ladies!

After umpteen failed attempts at all sorts of diets and challenges, me and a friend @PriyaSrini decided to not give in and give it up altogether. But we will cruise through slow and sure.

So we have created a customized challenge for ourselves, wherein we will start off with short burst of challenges lasting 7 days. We will modify them as we go and get ourselves fit in the wake.

My Challenge:

Keep my calorie intake under 1200 calories, each day for the next 7 days. To aid in counting calories, I have a calorie count app in my phone, hopefully it is accurate.

Priya's challenge:

8000 steps a day for the next 7 days.

We will periodically update our progress and make sure we win together!

Baby steps Manoj, HMA and I finalised on this after some tried and tested attempts. We hope to increase the pace over the next few weeks.

The motive of this thread is to encourage each other and stay committed to it, irrespective of the fitness or diet challenge we set up on ourselves. So if you have a goal, join us and leave an update here.

Hi All,

First day was good, but could have been better. I stand at an approximate 1365 calories for the day. So have overshot my calorie intake by around 200 calories. I am going to see the trend this week and come to an optimum calorie plan. The one mistake I made was, having some fries. It was handed to me on a platter when I was getting ready for dinner and I just gobbled it up without thinking. I should have avoided that. Oh well! Lesson learned. No eating on impulse.

All the very best HMA and Priya !! Go girl(s) go !! Hit the slopes, walk the trails and melt that stubborn fat and achieve those nerves of steel and strength of iron !!

HMA,

I did some changes in my diet and incorporated some "healthy" food inplace of bhujia and murukku and can see change in a week. I need some time to elaborate my present life style vs my earlier one. Will do it soonish.

In the mean time, while you are working out avoid negativity as much as you can !! you dont deserve that !

You should try "sharing" HMA, keep just 1 fry for yourself and give the rest away .

My first day turned out to be hectic but I managed to stay active and on my feet and just managed to cross my 8K target. Day 2 was really good, did a 30 min workout in the morning and found time to go for a walk later in the evening, did 9k.

Great going Priya!! Am super proud of you!!

My Day 2 was good as well. Was able to control my intake to around 1300 cals, though there was a cheat of half a glass of Fanta running to about 100+ wasted calories. But well, my taste buds are satisfied too, at the end of the day!
