PS -will try to have only fruits today INSHALLAH ,hope it could balance !

Re: 40 Day Weight Loss Challenge..

I can't give up pastas and rice either so I eat only fruits for breakfast and evening meal and a heavy lunch of mixed meals including pastas or rice and meat, I eat more meat than the pasta/rice/potatoes though. So big portion of meat and veggies with a small portion of white carbs.

Re: 40 Day Weight Loss Challenge..

today i had an apple and a peanut butter sandwich for breakfast, lunch 1 banana,1 apple and few apricots no snacking in btw ... will workout once i reach home

:( loosing hope ,feeling sad or i dont know something is happening !

Re: 40 Day Weight Loss Challenge..

so we have 32 days only? :(

Re: 40 Day Weight Loss Challenge..

^^ I think a little bit more. I am so so disheartedy by my recent food overdose.. sigh.. that too, pasta, rice, heavy sauces. So hard to get back on track. And in this weather I hate working out!

Re: 40 Day Weight Loss Challenge..

^this is the best weather to work out...you easily sweat in summer.

Re: 40 Day Weight Loss Challenge..

Hey guys! Just wanted to report some progress, I've lost 2 pounds but I haven't been working out lately :( I know....but I've gotten really lazy. I think because its summer and I'm on vacation it's hard to care but I'm going to try and start working out again frequently.

Re: 40 Day Weight Loss Challenge..

actully yes its best weather but on the other hand its really hard to do:(
its 40 (c) max,min 38(c) here :hayaa: anyway..

yesterday i had apple and peanut butter sandwich for breakfast,lunch apple banana and few apricots,dinner 1 plate dal with less thsn half roti and 2 tbsp keema and 2tbsp chawal and a cup of green tea after an hour.. plus walk for 45 min did 250 times skipping and i have dedicated 10-12 mins to some yoga poses :slight_smile:

Re: 40 Day Weight Loss Challenge..

Re: 40 Day Weight Loss Challenge..

just back on track buddy we all are here :slight_smile: ..and where do u stay ?

Re: 40 Day Weight Loss Challenge..

Welldone Hareem, Great news :slight_smile:

Re: 40 Day Weight Loss Challenge..

Bad news for me.. Went home on the weekend and weighed myself and I was the same .. no change..

I eas expecting to have lost atleast a kg.. I have been working so hard :(

My body fat was showing as 38% :( I was 28% the week before

It has deflated me (mind the pun) knowing I haven't even lost 10 grams

I now have 31 days and really need to get it going..

Weekend - Food wasn't great but wasn't bad either..

I think I will start counting calories too and also start running every day (minimum 5 miles)

For me to lose 10 kg in a month , I need to have run 290 miles .. I ran 5 miles on Saturday so as well as counting down days I will also count down the miles..

I have membership at my home city gym and can't seem to get them to transfer it to London .. For me to run properly I need to use a treadmill so I can appreciate how little I have run

so 31 **days left
**10 **kg left
**285
miles left

Calories: Cereal this morning with ss milk - 250 calories
-Coffee (negligible)

Re: 40 Day Weight Loss Challenge..

dont get upset confucius .. body takes time to adapt to new excercise routine.u'll notice a positive difference after 15 days INSHALLAH its my personal experience i lost my first kg after 15 days of HARD WORKOUT ROUTINE literally it was real hard. its hard to lose first few pounds... then ... u lose very fast ... dont let it get to you .. u definitely cant gain weight doing it

Re: 40 Day Weight Loss Challenge..

I hope so, I have been doing curves for 3 weeks, I thought I should have lost by now oh well ...now definitely on a mission to lose that flab..

1 month left..

Re: 40 Day Weight Loss Challenge..

v'll do it :)

Re: 40 Day Weight Loss Challenge..

Hey all .... this is really great okay my stats are : Age:21 current we
ight: 72 kilos goal weight: anything below 65 time frame: by eid inshallahhhh ... personally running is the fastest way for me to lose weight (on treadmill) but during ramadan i shall just limit my carb intake opting for soups, chicken, high protein foods instead ..... goodluck to everyone!

Re: 40 Day Weight Loss Challenge..

Hey Shabnaam,

Welcome and looks like a good plan :)

Re: 40 Day Weight Loss Challenge..

Yeah I guess it happens. I did good on Sunday. I ate not so good bkfast but rest of the day was pretty good and I worked out too. I live in New York. And yeah I shouldn’t complain about the heat. I’d rather workout right now then in winters plus I go to a gym :smiley:

Re: 40 Day Weight Loss Challenge..

You know its okay if you haven't lost anything. Like I mentioned my weight loss was very slow too but then right after a month of working out and dieting.. boomm.. I lost 10 lbs. Also, just a suggestion, try to cut down your calorie intake.

Re: 40 Day Weight Loss Challenge..

I agree with Spiral. I've been working out on my diet and exercise for over a month now and just this week have started to see the results.
