HI. I need to lose weight. I am not verryyy fat but gettin there. need to change routine?

Question

First I am an indian and vegetarian. If someone could suggest what would be the right kind of food for me to eat , I think that will be helpful. Secondly, I do walk but For the next 2-3 months I will not have time due to my busy work schedule. If someone can recoomend somethin, that would be helpful.

I also wanted to know .. that i would like to stop soda .. but is there any good juice- like apple , or orange or soemthin like that ... i can drink which would help me apart from water ...

Answer 1

well i would suggest a glass of lemon water in the morning and after that for breakfast pulkas or idilis and skimmed milk...afternoon moderate quantity of rice dal and veg with a glass of lemon juice and in the night before eight u should finish ur dinner..see that dinner does not contain dal, rice and too much oil..eat chapatti with vegetable curry and salads..and follow it up with a glass of lemon water..can have three to four cups of tea or coffee with sugar free and 2-3 fruits in a day... this way ur metabolism will be taken care off and with ur hectic schedule u should be able to loose weight ...
i followed this and lost upto 7kgs in nearly 45days........

Answer 2

The biggest fitness mistake I ever made was believing that I didn't have time to walk for a few months due to my work schedule. (I was opening a hotel.) I gained back 53 pounds I had struggled to lose. If I could get a do-over, I would gladly admit that although I would have had to give up half an hour a day of sleep to do it, it would have been best to continue my walking routine. It would have changed the course of my life, as I have suffered a lot of medical problems in the past couple years as a result of gaining that weight back and haven't been able to re-lose it yet. My advice, please, re-examine whether or not you can walk even 30 minutes a day. You will thank yourself for it someday. If you are vegetarian, it seems you should aready have a healthy diet, unless you are eating a lot of junk food, too. If so, just cut that out. Drink lots and lots of water a day, and you shouldn't have a problem. Good luck.

Anytime you want to loose weight, the key is fewer calories and more exercise. You DO have time to exercise, if you really want to. You didn't say why you won't have time to exercise in the coming months, but you can fit it in your day creatively. I only have 30 minutes for lunch each day, so I eat at my desk when I'm not too busy with work matters and spend my 30 minutes running/walking in the park behind our office. I started walking 3-4 laps and am now running 12-13 laps. You can do this anywhere, just take some appropriate shoes to work and go outside when you can. Then there's the obvious, park farther from the door, take stairs as often as possible (great for muscles) and walk wherever you can instead of driving. Look at your diet and if you drink regular soda, try diet or water, fat free milk, fat free or no dressings on salads, etc. Good luck!

Try a cleansing diet! I did and lost 11 pounds and 21 inches in only 9 days. I was very happy with the results and continued on the program and lost 29 pounds in 5 weeks. This is the fastest I have ever lost with other diets like Jenny Craig, Weight Watchers, Medifast, Slimfast etc…. Cleansing works by removing toxins from your body. You get toxins from your food (pesticides, preservatives, food additives, colorings) water, chemicals, pollution, medications, alcohol, hormones that the animals you eat were fed etc….YUCK! The toxins get coated with fat and remain in your body. To remove the fat, you have to remove the toxins. This system worked for me, maybe it can work for you too. You can check out the website or call this toll free number 1-877-587-4647 for more info. The program is not cheap, but it is worth every penny since it works and keeps you motivated. Good luck!

Answer 5

Hi! I just posted a question asking the same thing! Since you're veggie I don't see a problem. Any green leafy vegetable should be present in your meals ATLEAST once a day. Also, if you're fond of milk, try to move to skimmed, or semi-skimmed milk.

One of my favorite food tricks is to drink a nice big bowl of soup before a meal. It'll help you fill up faster, and eat less. Keep your last meal of the day light, and don't sleep right away after eating.

GoodLuck!

Answer 7

First, lift weights (for abs, buns, w/e) Then, do cardio. Be sure to stretch before and after. Additionally, working out in the morning (b4 u eat) burns fat faster (there's nothing in your stomache when you first wake up and any exercise burns right into your fat). Good diet helps as well.

Answer 8

Just keep eating lots of fruits and veggies but also make sure you get some servings of nuts (but be careful as the calories in nuts add up VERY quickly). You can try the vegetarian meal plan options from http://www.sparkpeople.com
