I was curious about Bhumi's weight loss - Page 3

I agree that sticking to home cooked food does help in keeping weight in check.

After my BMI hit a record high of 29 (😔) I decided that if I don't do something about my fitness now I will certainly develop obesity related complications by the time I approach my 40s. So I cut down restaurant meals/fast food to once a week (it also helps me increase my monthly savings so that was anlther motivator). I also eliminated rice from my diet. It helped that I am not a huge fan of rice and I used to have small portions of it even before I began dieting. But eliminating that small proportion of rice has made a huge difference. In 4 months I have lost 6 kilos and have brought my BMI down to 26. I have taken things slow because as everyone knows crash dieting harms your metabolism.

Another thing that has worked very well for me is treating myself to cheat meals and cheat days. By this I don't mean binge eating. But in these 4 months there have been days when I have enjoyed biryani, pizza and burgers. The key is to get back on track after cheat meals and cheat days (I once had three consecutive days of rich food!!- then went back to my usual diet on the 4th day). I feel this has helped my metabolism from plumetting and has helped keep my weight loss slow and sustainable.

It's not a no carb, it's a low carb. Most food, especially veggies have carbs as well.

I don't think keto is for everyone, but I also don't understand when people think keto is nonsense. Ketosis is science. Your body entering state of ketosis is not a theory or opinion, it can be proven by science. Keto works for quick weight loss. The problem is maintaining it because who doesn't want rice, pasta and bread. Or in my case lentils.

Ofcourse. Its just that i don't add 'in my opinion' to everything i say. I didn't mean to imply that what i was saying was fact 😋

In my opinion it's nonsense because for me it was disastrous. First, our Indian food is too carb centric. Second if you are a vegetarian then sone pe suhaaga. Third, for me it caused massive hair fall. Fourth, it is ridiculously tough to sustain for life. Fifth, when you leave it your weight will return with double speed along with a couple of its friends.

This was my experience.

And i find this doctor suggesting everyone to go extremely low carb as extremely foolish. And my post was largely about how bhumi might have advocated home food at a time but now she religiously follows him

I've tried everything right from eating good, exercising bs to fad herbalife stuff. Only thing worked for me is the snake juice and carnivore diet (basically keto)

Went from 116 to 85. It's crazy how ducking useless Indian diet is.

This is actually a practical truth. I've always been a fat human. But this lockdown with home cooked food (that included homemade biriyani, chinese) n regular an hour of exercise I've actually lost 9 kilos in 7 months. Oh btw all of summer I used to have 2 mangoes every night 😃 n now I have a nolengur sondesh every night #guilty. I've actually realised that weight loss have more hullaboos around it than the actual work😆

Thank you so much❤️...I loved Roberta's exercises..

Can we do these exercises in periods? I am having menorrhagia and I think it's because of lack of exercises 😆 The exercises aren't bad in periods right?
