I'm guilty to join this grp though I have a quite a much to lose....cos I dont have the determination...but I have been a passive listener of all your tips hoping that one day I would turn in ...

Good Luck....Keep losing..(your weight of course)

 

Hey guys,

I am in the same boat as the rest of you. I HAVE to shed 40 lbs at least. I am 5'7" and weigh about 180 lbs. I want to get down to atleast 140 lbs. One of my friends is doing weight watchers. I want to join in but I am not sure if it will work for us indians, who predominantly cook our own food. Is there anybody who has tried WW and have lost some weight? I rarely eat out. Fix most of my meals at home. so I was wondering if we could swap recipes that are low in cal. I dont want to start a recipe thread..but i was wondering if anybody would shared tried and true low cal recipes. My target is to loose 10% of my body weight by 12/31/01, which is 18 lbs. So feel free to share recipes, if you can. And please count me in. I am going to record my weight every week, if thats ok. If not, let me know. My office is on the 5th floor so I do the stairs a couple times at a time, twice a day. It gets me so out of breath. I assume its going to work.

Hope you guys will help me stay motivated to lose my extra lbs. Excited to see lesser of me in the mirror.
Sakshi.

 

Hi gals,
So Diwali came and needless to state (Aabhi I did think of you all and the WLT) I had a few sweets - 2 mysorepak and 1 gulabjamun to be precise - yesterday and 1 mysorepak today. No exercise yesterday either. I know I'm weak-willed .Well these were home-made and my MIL would have been so hurt if I had refused to even taste them! My diet is otherwise not bad - not 100% but about 80% of where I need to be. The exercise part I need to stop making excuses and just do it. So how has everyone else been doing? Hope you all had a good diwali.

Vanathi.

I have been going thro all the replies in this post. But feeling guilty to say that I am joining you people. I could never stick on to my routine normally so following a regular diet and exercise regimen is nearly MISSION IMPOSSIBLE. I am 5.1 ' tall and weigh 78kg. I should be around 52, but getting even 1 kg off me is such a difficult thing. I have to make my mind very strong to follow the exercise routine. Over that, I also have cholestrol and uric acid is on the higher side. That means I am to avoid proteins.
I am planning to go to a dietician and get started with a personalised diet and exercise plan.I shall get back to you people once I do something worthwhile so that others would also be motivated.
I wish you all luck.

 

Hi Varloo,

Eventhough I joined this team, still I dont have that strong will to follow this. Many of us have the same problem i think, what do you say friends, myself I'm not able to stick to a strict diet with exercise.

Aabhi, thanks for your suggestions, I'll try to follow them. But yesterday night I ate puri with chole, same today for lunch. My in-laws are here and I make something special in weekdays or weekends and I feel shy to say that I'm on diet and cannot eat all this stuff and I could not resist myself from eating those mouthwatering puris.

May be I should do some meditation also to get some good determination on what I'm doing:-(

Luv,
Sandhya
