It is so easy to give in to temptation, so easy to give up on your diet, so easy to keep stuffing your mouth with delicious junk food but so difficult so stay motivated.
We expect quick results and if we do not get them, we get demotivated but if we get some results as well, we celebrate it and then again get demotivated!
I tried gyming, spent a lot of money on it. The only thing I got when I left it is fats in places I never expected. Exercise is a habit that needs to be a permanent fixture in our lives for it to work positively.
I need to lose weight and I have to do it for ME. I want t be able to wear an M instead of an L or XL.I want to be able to buy the clothes I like rather than that which fits. Argghh…enough is enough. No more crying pathetically and not doing anything about it. I have never given up, I have determination. I do not have willpower but I am determined to do it.
It’s easy for me to lose focus. I am dreaming of a sexy figure one minute, the next I am noting down the recipe to make Biryani.
After so many starts and ends, I decided to club all the diets at one time and see if that will help me….
So presenting, Giselle’s Borrowed Diet Khichdi – Week One (Bouncing the quantity Weekly)
i. Pre Breakfast (Empty Stomach) – 1 glass warm water with lemon (no honey at home right now, so will add a spoon when I get some)
ii. Breakfast- 1 bowl Kellogg’s K or 1 bowl Masala Oats or 1 paratha (dab of oil only and made with mix flour- wheat/jowar/bajra etc) or 1 bowl white poha or 2 dosas/idli with chutney and 1-2 any fruits and green tea and 2 glasses of water.
iii. Brunch- Fruits or 1 bowl soup
iv. Lunch- 1 glass Herbal Life Chocolate Milkshake and Energizing Powder (only I hate milk, so I have it with water & instructions- 3 spoons milkshake powder and 1 spoon energizing powder mixed in one cup of water AND no, I do not sell or promote herbal life because If I could lose weight with food supplements only, I would not need it in the first place ,I am using my mom’s!!!)
v. Eve snacks- Fruits/Salad/Soup/Dry Fruits
vi. Pre Dinner- Anything I feel like eating or my mom got but in small portions
vii. Dinner- Whatever is cooked in small portions.
viii. 3 liters of water all day and plenty of liquids- green tea/fennel tea etc.
The key this time is to not stop myself from eating anything…I can eat whatever I want only once in a while and not a large portion. I realized that dieting makes me crave for food that I would not touch in normal frame of mind, so touch away this time!
I have been kinda following this diet for 2 days now so I can settle in and start a routine, so I can stick to it and lose weight.
I just need a strong reason to stay focused this time,God please make me fall in love so I can lose weight happily :p
