Diet Plan - Lose weight now
Currently (Sep 11, 2014), my weight is about 70 kilograms ≈ 154 pounds. It was about 99 kilograms ≈ 218 pounds just 10 months ago. Losing weight wasn’t easy, but it wasn’t as difficult as I thought it would be. After having success in losing weight efficiently, I have decided to share my diet routine with my blog readers.
I followed this diet when I was 20 years old, and hence this diet plan should ideally suit teenage boys, or men who are in their early-20s. Others may try this too; after all it’s the human body, and the nutrition it needs should remain similar in most normal cases. But please follow your doctor’s guidance before trying anything below. This isn’t medical advice, it’s just a summary of what I did that worked for me.
Prerequisites for following the diet plan
- A heavy body - why read further if you do not fulfill this 😉
- Self control - to avoid the junk food cravings
- Patience - you cannot lose weight overnight
- Determination (Most Important)
And if determination is what you lack, have a look at my picture below. I hope it helps inspiring you.
So, let’s begin with the diet plan!
Early morning (empty stomach): A glass full of hot or lukewarm water with honey and lemon.
Breakfast (strictly after bath): One cup of milk with Britannia 5 grain biscuits or Marie Digestive (3-4 biscuits) with a banana/boiled egg/egg omelette (and I am not paid by Britannia or Marie to say this).
2-3 hours after breakfast: Fruits (avoid Chikoos and Bananas). Apples are highly recommended.
Lunch: Salad consisting of Cucumber and/or Tomatoes. 2 chapatis without ghee and any traditional sabzi or dal. Have sprouts at least twice a week.
Evening snacks: A glass of milk or a vegetable soup with some salad. On some days khaakra or diet chivda should be fine too.
Dinner (try having it before 9 pm): 2 chapatis without ghee with any traditional sabzi or dal.
Additional Points:
- Avoid fried food.
- Avoid cheese, butter, and sweets (sugar) as much as possible.
- Drink a lot of water. This may sound weird but make drinking water a hobby. Drink water when you are bored, even if you are not thirsty.
- However, don’t drink water within 30 minutes of having breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
- Avoid eating at unusual times.
- Avoid drinking cold water.
- Try avoiding rice, and if that is difficult then remove starch from rice before eating.
I followed this diet plan with absolutely ZERO EXERCISE and it worked flawlessly for me. I hope you follow it and it helps you in reducing your weight too.
All the best. Happy dieting! 🍎
