Re: 40 Day Weight Loss Challenge..

Hi em2san

Welcome , what do you have as a target date, 7kg is a really good target :)

Re: 40 Day Weight Loss Challenge..

Hey xjatti
Welldone on continuing the shred,do you know even when you're not exercising the workouts you have done previous will continue to burn cals even when you're not doing anything :)

Re: 40 Day Weight Loss Challenge..

Good news I am dead on 68kg it took 4 weeks but I am down 4.4lbs :)

Bad news, I am eating badly

TOTM is due to finish so hopefully that will help me manage my cravings

I was craving something meaty so had 4 ribs sticky bbq ones and oh man felt so bad afterwards didn't really enjoy eating them either, they were so fatty

Today I had water, half a cup of cereal, one tea, a handful of crisps, a piece of chocolate and a roll laikan bas aur kuch bhi nahin.. no no no no

I went for a run this am and yesterday I was so good 30 mins run in the morning and 2 hours walk after :)

Shabnaam

Wow you're really determined I like it.. keep it up

I thought lentils were protein with fibre... someone correct me if I am wrong

Re: 40 Day Weight Loss Challenge..

confu - TOTM is nearly over for me to.... :)
cant wait to start back on to the fasting - i think your right about the lentils girls...

yesterday was day 7 of exercise and my right leg is no better ...
actually i would say its worse - but im defo gonna carry on with it tonight :)

Re: 40 Day Weight Loss Challenge..

Lentils are really good. They are a source of protein and fibre which is good because dieting can cause constipation which can cause weight gain but fibre rich foods keep things moving along smoothly. But this is only if the have daal the non-desi way without tadka!

Confucius: I want to lose weight and tone my abs and thighs by Dec 20th - my cousin's wedding. But I am hoping I can lose a couple of kgs in Ramadan to kickstart the fitness regime and to look better in my Eid clothes. I am really impressed by how encouraging you are of other people's efforts and also by how determined you are to stick to your plan -- whenever you've mentioned slipping and bingeing, you've simultaneously mentioned your regret. I'm rooting for you to reach your target weight!

Re: 40 Day Weight Loss Challenge..

Time Of The Month - TOTM :)

I plan to be 67. something by Thursday inshALLAH

fingers crossed

Curves today and aiming to get through the evening without bingeing on anything bad

Re: 40 Day Weight Loss Challenge..

Awww thankyou em2san, :hugz:

It means a lot to me, I have noticed since I am noting everything I eat here, it makes me think twice before I have something to eat. and learn not to eat too badly

So last night, I had a light soup, 1 piece of roast chicken, half a potato and veg and kept away from the rice

Re: 40 Day Weight Loss Challenge..

I need major encouragement. I was doing so well. Now, I am not fasting and eating like anything. I haven't gained anything but I haven't lost anything either. I am not eating any typical iftaari stuff .. shukar.. because I am not making much iftaari. I am not a fan of pakoray and all. But the binging it is. I go in the kitchen and find something to eat, piece of cake, cookies. I wasn't feeling too well for the last few days. I felt that I was working out way too hard and was on a very strict diet which caused weakness. I told myself, Ok lets take a break. Now that break has turned into a major break.... I don't feel motivated anymore :(

Re: 40 Day Weight Loss Challenge..

sahur: water

iftar:
yoghurt and oats
spinach stew with chicken

glass of carrot juice

Re: 40 Day Weight Loss Challenge..

awww Spiral … :hug:

Don’t worry today is the day..

Be happy that you haven’t gained any weight and make yourself realise that you had a good few days guilt free and now you want to lose 1lb this week and just go for it …

There’s no point getting on the scales and seeing that weight creep up before you do it

What is your weight now, healthy competition is good.. I know me and shabnaam are both keen to get to 63 and we are both 69 kg so I would be hoping we can match each other day by day on behaving ourselves and getting down to 63 soon :slight_smile:

Re: 40 Day Weight Loss Challenge..

confusious how tall are you ?

Re: 40 Day Weight Loss Challenge..

5"5 Shabnaam
