This is what worked for me. I was around 110kgs 2016. Yes, you read that right. I passed my class 12 in that year and it was then I decided that I would bring change to myself.
I was always either studying or in social media and due to unhealthy eating habit, I gained a lot of weight.
1st April 2016-
The 12th boards were over. It was the day I bring change to my habits.
- Food habit-
1- First of all I quit rice from my diet. I noticed one thing that I was addicted to rice and would eat lots and lots without even the count.
So I switched to Roti/Chapati/Indian wheat bread. To be honest I still dont know whats the nutrition values of roti vs rice yet there was this psychological impact on me while eating roti. I could count the number of rotis I was eating white rice I was seeing just the grains.
So I kept my maximum threshold limit of eating to 3 Rotis.
2- I used to eat lots of junk food /fast food. Fried items like Samosa, pakoda etc strictly no went from me. Rolls, noodles, momos, chips, etc were also restricted.
3- Removed sweets from the diet. I had a bad habit of eating desserts after dinner. Basically, I had to remove any sweet dish from my menu (TдT).
4-More homemade foods were included with roti which was daal, chickpeas, soybean, boiled eggs, mixed vegetables, sprouts, chicken curry on weekends (yeah with less oil).
● Workout-
1- I started with brisk walking. Eventually, I started jogging as walking for months made my body resistant to it.
2- Learned to jump ropes. Yeah, jumping ropes do wonder. It was fun to perform and burned a lot of calories.
3- So after I started jogging and jumping ropes, I began to develop stamina yet I was weak. So I started to do pushups. It was one of the difficult tasks I ever did. Initially, I started doing the knee push-up and after 2 straight months of jogging, jumping ropes, squats I did my first pushup. It was one of the memorable moments when I went straight down and able to loft my weight (although I still can't do the pull-ups yeah I am working on that too).
3- So after learning basic push-ups and squats I included many variations to it. You can check youtube for them for an advanced level.
There is a reason The Keto Diet has been the most searched diet in the last couple of years. It is not a Fad diet, which comes and goes. But because Keto can drastically improve your life, help you live longer and healthier this diet is not going anywhere in fact at the rate people are becoming active ketoers - Ketogenic Diet can soon be a standard way of eating. The Ketogenic Diet has been in use in the medical community and it was prescribed to help autistic children improve their conditions. But it gained celebrity status, a few years back when people start posting their awe-inspiring weight loss transformations on social media.
