i'm following a very good diet plan these days. has helped me reduce 4 KG & 1 inch in 2 months.



I lost 3 inches in waist size, but my weight went down by 1/2 a kg only :confused:, the instructor said that's because my muscle mass is increasing. My BMI is around 25 too, and i believe it is categorized as over weight :wall:
 
20 to 25 is normal. 25-30 is overweight & 30+ is obese.so 25 is the borderline between normal & overweight. actually even i consider 25 overweight. BMI of 23-24 is much more desired :happy:
 
Dudes contineu your workout , that is the matra for reducing belly and get back in shape + take some precaution in diet too :rofl::rofl::rofl:
 
now having BMI of 28 :| Am 5feet 11inches. Went to gym last year for 1 month and stopped. I look fit like i work out everyday but truth is am eating a lot of junk food since last 2 months. Also since college started, exercise has become less. So thinking to join gym again to loose a couple of abdomen inches. Also planning to cycle to gym from home and back (3km up and down) and skipp a lot.Trainer told me that we should wear jock straps/suspenders so that our balls would not get damaged while exercising. Anybody has any idea in this?
 
Most important thing in the weight loss factor is the calorie consumed vs calories spent
calories spent in a day must be greater than calorie consumed in a day.
also, your metabolism decides how fast you burn calories, cardio exercises increases your metabolism and helps burning calories in a fast pace.
so in all:
1 - exercise regularly with mix of cardio and toning
2 - consume less calories than you require daily
3 - sleep enough
will help in lowering weight.
 
I am not a fitness freak but yes, the easiest way is to eat less calories than required, but the problem with that is that your body goes into starvation mode and whatever weight you gain will come to haunt you if you are not able to maintain that, in a short time. The widely accepted means is to eat the required amount of calories, but split them up into many portions instead of just 2 or 3 big meals. Splitting them and mixing them up everyday into 6 - 8 small meals while still eating the required calories would almost guarantee weight loss. But its quite difficult in the times we live in unless you really commit yourself. Nothing comes easily.

true that!
Weight loss is a long process, one should not rush it. Important thing is to set realistic goals like it's best to loose 0.5 Kg per week, anything more than that, you will start loosing energy.
