How To Reduce Weight Without Using A Pill?
Hi Dr Grief
I'm 20 years old, 150cm and weighing 48 kg. I'm currently using Qlaira. I was using Yaz, but I went up from 45 kg to 48 kg while using it. It doesn't sound a lot but on my small frame it is immediately visible and I'm not fitting into my clothes anymore. I've been using Qlaira for a week now. I try to watch what I eat and I gym 4-5 times a week for an hour. What else can I do to start losing weight and not picking it up. I would ideally like to go back to my weight before going on the pill.

Hi,
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

Taru
