My Experiments at losing weight



In the year 2011 crossed 80kg - touched 81 – ever highest

I let it go there thinking that I would lose it in 2012 as would be off drinks and Non-veg food as Usual for a year. To my surprise by end Jan touched 81 Kgs in spite of no alcohol and No Drinks. Had controlled my diet and exercised for at least 15 days in Jan.

I understand my constitution – if I consume 2500 calories a day I will maintain status, for additional consumption of 3500 calories I gain 1 Kg. 30 to 40 min of Exercise like walking or running and I burn 500 calories. I have to get the balance right. I think 1 was good in January and should have lost 2 kgs but to my surprise gained one.

My Boss Suggested I consume Oats daily – so from Feb. the consumption started. In two months I have lost 5 kgs. Yes oats helped me reduce my food portions, I did exercise 10 day each month and kept my daily intake around 2500 calories. I increased my daily water intake, reduced my carb intake too and skipped dinner on few occasions.

I have set a target of loosing 5kgs buy May end let’s see if oats dose the magic…
