Adnan Sami's diet plan

Carry on, Adnan!

Adnan Sami may have lost 109 kilos, but he insists that losing the last 20 kilos is going to be the toughest

Adnan Sami has received a 'fitting' response for having lost 109 kilos. The singer, however, says that it is still a 'weight and watch' situation for him as the next 20 kilos that will get him to his target weight of 80 kilos will be the toughest to knock off.

Survival of the slimmest! Adnan Sami

"Losing weight is like running a marathon, where running the last lapse is the toughest. You know you are close to victory but you're nearing exhaustion and need to put in that last-ditch effort, no matter what," says Adnan who is drawing support from friends and family in his effort to slim down. "I am able to keep at it only because of the co-operation and support I have received from my family and friends. It's getting very tougher each day but I am heartened by the support I have been receiving."

Adnan was shaken out of his complacence about his weight when his doctor had a word with him last year. "One day, my doctor bluntly told me that he wouldn't be surprised if my parents found me dead in a hotel."

That incident spelt a major turning point in his life. Adnan started his diet programme in July last year and since then life has been different for him. "Only after losing the first 20 kilos did people notice that I was slimmer. 'Oh, we actually see a dent somewhere" they would say," laughs Adnan. "Now I can experience the simple joys of life like any normal person. Guess what, I can sit crossed-legged now. Earlier I would sleep in a sitting position, now I lie down! I used to love travelling but it soon became a nightmare as I was so petrified of walking at the airports, not fitting into seats…"


Do or diet

A quick look at Adnan Sami's diet plan: He has cut down on bread, rice, sugar and oil completely. His diet includes salads, dal without tadka, tandoori fish without oil, popcorn without butter, Lots of sugar-free drinks and no alcohol.

He usually starts the day with a cup of sugarless tea. For lunch, he eats generous helpings of salad tossed with just one table spoon of fat-free dressing. He eats plain dal (no rice, roti) for dinner. "I am allowed to have chicken but I don't feel like having it," Adnan says.

He used to sleep in a sitting position? 😕 You mean he slept in a sleeping position all this while in life? Oh my God! How on earth did he manage that and what about sleep deprivation? - *kaanfused*

Let me see if I can practice that now. I'm sure that's some sort of a yoga pose! Oh Ramu-baba where art thou? 😍

Wow... 👏 Thts too gud.

Its for his own betterment... 😛 Look now life for him like heaven... 😳

@ Ethnos: Yes its hard to imagine sumone sleeping in a sitting position for so many years 😆 But with time ppl get used to it so it doesnt bother much. When u hav so much weight like wht he had before it becums diffcult to breathe when u lie on bed... 😛 😆

But the diet plan mentioned in the article really works....last year the doctor made me cut down on rice,roti,chicken,mutton,oil etc etc (not for deit n to lose weight for sum treatment 😆 )...n it really works i also lost weight...!!! 😆 😆 😆
