felonopsis · Jan 31, 2018

@madras2018 , Thanks for dropping in and sharing your opinion. I have a very generic diet plan(which is healthy) and it has worked out for me. I am avoid white rice(opt for only whole grains), and include lots of salads and finish dinner by 8 which has worked out for many a people, including me years ago. I am trying the same and still see that its working out. Regarding Iron, calcium, Vit D tabs- I have started them immediately after my child birth on the advise of my Gync. I am sure most of the recently delivered mothers will atleast have Calcium+Iron. If my diet and moderate work out is not working and still stays stubborn then , yes, seeking dietitians might be an option. As shanvy mam says, control, commitment and consistency are the keys. It applies both to healthy eating and workout. I am yet to see some one who follows the 3Cs and still not loosing weight. If still they are, Yes, professional assistance is a must.

Ladies, I hope its ok to join you all a week late. Post my first delivery, I had lost weight very easily. I mean, eating healthy alone helped as I was 6 years younger, metabolism was good and also my body was much quicker to accept change. Now, the story is different.

During my research about being healthy (read: not weight loss. Weight-loss would be an added bonus if you are healthy), I realised a few things.

. Do not starve your body. Give it the food it needs (read: not wants). If you starve your body, it will think it will not get food and so, it will store the fat to use it later. It’s a proven fact.

. Eat small portions, throughout the day. Don’t give more than 3 hours gap with small healthy portions. Take the stairs everywhere! Ditch that elevator and escalator. Even if its 4 flioght of stairs.

I am a week behind you all in joining this thread but I have started re-eating healthy 4 days ago (post a vacation where I ate like there is no tomorrow). I had gained 3 pounds in 8 days during vacation and in 4 days I have lost that 3+1 pounds. Here is what I did:

Breakfast: Typically consists or Oatmeal or a boiled egg with ½ fruit and milk
Snack: usually fruit
Lunch: soup and sandwich made out of gluten free bread
Snack: veggies and green tea with lemon
Dinner: salad with some chicken/fish
Snack: milk

Helloo @felonopsis
I also want to join. I gained weight after my delivery but after a year i was back to my normal weight. But i dont know what happened after three years of my delivery i started to gain weight. My weight is now 65kg. I look very bulky and more of like a balloon and watever dress i wear it doesnt suit me well. I have tension n stress in my married life and that may have an impact in my eating habit. Because when i get stressed i just stuff my mouth with food. Since i am a STHM i cook three times a day and i just eat a lot..
I wanted to ask you one thing. If i just walk for an hour or so will it be like a workout? I used to workout when i started gaining weight but periods time i just stop and then it stopped completely.
I drink water but dont eat many fruits.
Anyways i will post what i ate from tomorrow onwards.
Keep going!!!!!

Hello Ladies!

I was diagnosed yesterday with pcos, vitamin B12 and D deficiency. I am also hypothyroid since July 2017. My head is spinning as i am ttc and need some guidance. I read up on the internet that weight loss is helpful for pcos. I am overweight @ 64kgs, height is 5ft...would like to lose 10 kgs...last year i was 58-59. This thyroid has played havoc in my life.

I feel inspired after going through the posts in this thread. Kindly let me also join this group. Please also give some tips for facing insulin resistance.

I will start posting my eating routine from tomorrow. I started on 30 mins strolling/walking from yesterday. Felt good about it.

One doubt. Do you ladies cook separately for yourself for this diet? I am asking because my husband won't eat chapatis and i want to avoid rice to improve my health. I feel lazy/no enthusiasm to cook two menus daily. Please help
