Hi,
Don't feel down or demotivated . You can lose weight with few small steps.
For weight loss exercise has to be regular. ( WALK/ JOGGING/ YOG/ PRANAYAM)
Weight loss is not a miracle.. You have to eat balanced and exercise regular for achieving a ideal body weight for life long.
Also dieting is not a solution for weight loss, Instead eat local and all seasonal food items and be regular in physical activity
Please follow the undermentioned points:-
1. drink 3-4 lit water every day
2. Start your day with 1-2 glass warm water - get fresh and take 8-10 soaked almonds and then go for morning exercise
3. Opt for wheat pooriadge/ Milk porriadge/ stuffed roties/ vegetable sandwiches/ Boiled pulses + 1 cup milk
4. Take 5 meals per day - 3 major meals and 2 small meals
5. 2 Servings of fruits every day
6. Eat all local and seasonal fruits and vegetables
7. Take 2-3 Cups of green tea every day - 1 at bed time before sleep
8. Avoid all processed and ready to eat food items.
9. Say no to fried food items
10. Eat slow and finish your meals in 20 minutes
11. no TV and gadgets should be there while having food
