Mishti doi indulgence

Can't escape birthday indulgences but keep it to a minimum!

Never again

Once I get trim and back to 77 kgs again, will never transgress from the diet and workout badly. Moderate restriction and workout will be consistent through LIFE!

Paunch

Getting a paunch. Got to eat every 3 hours and curtail the carbs. workouts 4 times a week minimum. Avoid injuries.

Dietary discipline

Need a very strong sense of dietary discipline and willpower – which has what has helped me stay thin, especially around the mid-riff, every Indian man’s problem.

 

Then work on core exercises to stay toned.

 

Must do this in one month. For this, a regular diet is a must.

 

Workouts have begun

Started going for self-designed workouts based on Shayamal’s and Heath’s exercises. Not sure I’m pushing myself enough but at least there’s some exercise and the body is getting used to effort.

 

But the downside is to think that the workout allows me to have jalebis and the like off and on, or snack liberally on the raagi/soya chips, which is not true. Diet is a big part of the effort.

 

The problem is that i’m at 81+ kgs and at 19% fat. Target is to lose 3 kgs of fat alone. That fat seems to have accumulated in the midriff. And that’s tough to get rid of, needs a combination of diet and workouts – have to avoid sugar and also avoid needless carbs in general.

 

Six packs are made in the kitchen.

 

Fits and starts

Starting fitness in fits and starts after the illness bout. Stay motivated and remember, diet is 70% of the effort, though the workouts really help in motivation, fitness rather than just being thin and in increasing metabolism and helping you stay on course.

 

 

4-5 days a week workouts.

 

Eat every 3 hours now. No carbs at night.
