A New but focused start...

Yes here is my new but more focused start to lose some excess weight. I know that I have done it many times before and failed always. Or I can say my journey never reached to its destination and here I am still trying and trying ....

BTW what happened has happened...

I have started pushing myself out of my comfort zone. here are few things I have started changing:

1. My body is habitual to eating rotis so I need to break the pattern. I decided to include dals, pulses, beans etc and ditch wheat.

2. No Whites. Yes anything or everything which is white is restricted be it Maida and things made from it, Rice, Sugar etc.

3.My body is cool with walking. So I have started jogging and running now. Yes I am breathless in just few minutes but practice will keep me improving. Though currently I did it for 3 days only but am dedicated to keep doing it. Somehow I like it too. Irrespective of it needs me to wake up around 4:45am so I am out at 5:00 am to jog/run for half and hour. As from 5:30 I need to make my kids tiffin.

At least by this weekend I was with my plans.

here a look into my Saturday breakfast and lunch.
Breakfast : Cornflakes (no sugar) with banana pieces, raisins, 2 dates

Lunch : Vegetable Daliya and buttermilk

Excuses...

Today while going through my usual net surfing for weight loss related articles I have come across one post from a girl who shared her weight loss success story.
She has written one line which I really liked and found very inspiring and true:

"Stop making excuses for your weight. If you have been overweight for some time it is not water weight or baby fat or bloating! It is excess, unhealthy fat!!"

This is very true.I realized that most of the times I end up doing so. Here are some of the excuses I keep making with myself. Also my thought for my own excuses:

1. I am not that Fat.
      What does 'that' mean.Am I in my ideal weight range. NO.NO.NO.

So this means I am overweight and need to lose weight.
Its good if I am not That fat, so better to be serious now before its too late I end me being That fat.

2.Eating one sweet,  eating a little more,eating rice today only etc etc will not harm.

   If I am not at my correct weight range am not allowed to do so.No means no.Not even a single time. A small amount of medicine works and as well as poison. All these things are currently like a poison for my well being. So getting indulged in even a tiny bite of that is not allowed at all.

3. As am taking steroids so am gaining weight.This is not my actual weight.I am or  my eatings are not responsible for it.

If I have gained weight, there is definitely something wrong in my lifestyle and eating which has to be corrected. Only such small (and safe dose by medical terms) dose of steroid (currently 6 mg a week) can not be culprit all alone. Even if it is Have I given my 100%best shot to not indulge in any bad eatings and making myself thin?

No,so I have to give the best shot to it.

So,first and top most priority I have decided after reading this line is to stop making and giving excuses to myself for anything which my mind does not allow  me to do.

I will stop making and accepting any excuse now related to eating. Self Control, Self Discipline and Self Monitoring is the first milestone I have to achieve here. I have decided to give my best to this target.

And when you truly wants to achieve something the whole Universe helps you to achieve it.
