Lets Our Dreams Come True By Loosing Weight

Hi all
I would like to join with you all. I am already in the journey of weight loss and lost around 14 kg last year. Still I am in the Journey till I reach my ideal and goal weight.

My initial weight(Last year) : 81.7 kg(180 lbs)
My current weight(now) : 68.1 kg(150 lbs)
My goal weight : 58 kg(127 lbs)

 

Could you please add what did you do to lose weight? How much did you exercise? And diet?

 

Exercise : Yoga (for 30 - 40 minutes)(Intermediate yoga not advanced one)
Jumping Jacks(45 secs - 1 min). Start from 10 seconds
Squats - 10 times
Lunges - 10 times
(or)
Walking (for 30 - 40 minutes)


What I followed :-
1) Drank almost 3 litres of warm water.( I ll start my day with a cup of warm water).
2) Avoid Foods which is made out of All Purpose Flour(White Bread, Cake, Biscuits, Cookies, Pasta, Noodles etc..)
3) Avoid deep Fried Foods(once in a while is ok(my weak point)).
4) Limit Sugar intake.(I had tea in the morning and evening )( 2 tsp sugar)
5) For Breakfast and Lunch, I almost ate the same food, which I prepare for my husband and Kid.( I had rice everyday for lunch, but pot cooked by straining the starch away) .
6) For dinner, mostly Phulkas with Grilled veggies/Chicken and Raita.
7) Be generous in eating Fruits and raw veggies throughout the day.
8) Prepared some motivation quotes about diet(printed and sticked in my kitchen door).

If you have any more questions, I am definitely ready to answer.

 

Thanks for sharing! I did Baba Ramdev's yoga once and my body felt great. I need to get into practice of doing it daily.

Simple ways to cut calories

1. Say "no" to sugar and honey. Grind cinnamon sticks and use as sugar.

2. Zero cream, milk, etc, etc in coffee, tea. Zero.

3. No to spreads on toast, roti, naan

4. If you have a severe sweet craving, eat dates. They have lot of sugar and calories (100 calories a piece), yet low glycemic index

5. Measure food in small bowls and plates.

6. If you are hungry, measure a small teaspoon of natural peanut butter (made of only peanuts, will have oily residue)

Remember there are 3500 calories in one pound

If you cut 50 calories a day, in one year you lose 5 pounds
If you cut 100 calories a day, in one year you lose 10 pounds

Try the math!
