I have over the last few months brooding about the constant
weigh gain that I have been having and the unhealthy lifestyle that I have sort.
Post a very public discussion of weight and a very
uncomfortable me, I have decided to take some action.
If you know me you would know that I have never been someone
who could diet or exercise, hence for me to have a realistic weight loss goals
and lifestyle changes
For once I have always believed in the way Rujutha /Ayurveda
describes weight loss. This has to be a lifestyle change, realistic and small
and most importantly sustainable.
I am aiming to lose 5 kgs by end of year, it is a tall task
but I am aiming high this time.
Changes I have decided to make
·
Hot water and lemon to start day
·
Reduce coffee/ tea
·
No snacking on junk
·
Plan meals well to include protein and
vegetables
·
Make soup/ Sprout salad for 11 and bring to
office
·
Triphala in the diet
·
Make wholesome homemade food.
·
No shopping in Sainsbury for junk
·
Target to make 13000 Steps a day / walk 45 mins
·
Early dinner before 7:30, slowly move this to
6:45 PM realistically can’t move it any more.
·
Restrict outside food to once a week
·
I can eat unhealthy food if I crave for it, but
avoid it as much as I don’t crave it.
It is going to a huge task for me to keep this going, but I
am sick and tired of not liking the way I look and not doing anything about it
but brooding.
I think for me the hardest times to keep myself from
snacking is the time from 10-1 , 3-5 at office and then as soon as I reach home.
I need to plan meals or snacks around this time that I can carry to work.
I have lost half a kg from the time I actually initially
weight myself, but sustenance and continuous weight loss together is going to a
big challenge.
