How to lose fat from hips and thighs
Dietary changes –
- Check the oil that you are using. Vegetable-based and olive oils are good for you. Cut down on ghee, butter, cheese, paneer and margarine.
- Limit your carb intake. Restrict yourself while eating potatoes, white rice, sago, pasta and other products made of refined flours.
- Use only skimmed milk and skimmed milk curd.
- Give up on all the fried foods until you get that shape. Nothing will come easily. Avoid fries, pakodas, samosa, fried momos, chips, and other fried snacks.
- Increase your fibre intake. Eat whole cereals, oats, broken wheat / daliya, brown rice, brown breads, fruits with skin and a lot of green veggies. If possible mix bran into your flour.
- If you are a non-vegetarian and enjoy fish, you will love this diet. Eat fish upto 4 times a week. Bake it, grill it but don’t fry it. You can have other lean meats up to 2 times in a week. And egg whites for breakfast are a good idea.
- 2 tsp of Triphala churn, along with ginger water is excellent way to help you liver to break down fats speedily and effectively.
- Cut the intake of wheat. Extra carbs always end of on hips and thighs. Include other cereals like jowar, bajra, and mix these flours with horse gram flour and soya flour.
- Go very light with your dinners. A plate full of salad made out of veggies, sprouts, fruits along with soups will help. Fill in with a very small portion of brown rice or daliya. In short have a fiber and protein rich dinner and go low on carbs. Eat dinner around 7.30 pm and having a small walk after it will only add up to your goal.

Hi Malini ,
if you havent yet started any form of exercises , then dont start with stair cimbing dierectly . first start with 30 mins walk on plain ground , do this for a week , and then you may shift to stair climbing . stair climbing is a bit tough to do for a long session , rather divide this into 3 session , and climb up and down 10 floors , or 1 floor 10 times . and do this in the morning , afternoon and evening .

Hi Aisha ,
Weight loss is a continous proces. if you want to lose weight effectively , you cant abruptly leave any workout or diet routine . you need to follow a maintainance program to be able to maintain the lost weight. hence you may have gained weight .
try to follow a low calorie balanced diet to lose weight . change your workout pattern and this will also help

Hi mam
I started doing exercise s only for 15 mins a day.it is very painful after one day in thighs. Severe pain in tighs to sit and stand. So I give up after a day everytime I start exercising. Is treadmill suggested for weight loss in hips and thighs? or how to exercise without severe pain.
Hi Rizwana ,
yes treadmill will help too. wheneber you start any workout , the muscles will pain because they are not in a habit of workout . so my advoce is that you start slow .. and for less time and then gradually go on increasing your timings and intensity for better weight loss

Only diet will not help you in losing spot weight .. it only helps in losing over all weight . exercisesing the muscles in thpose area is important
Hello Mam..
Actually Last Year I Wanted To Loose My Weight.. So I Do Only Running And Cut Little bit of my Junk food habits.. my weight was 93kg at that time (age 19) but by doing exercise I reduce it to 82kg in 2 months..
after that I left exercise..
and now my weight is 88kg..
last 1 months I do running and also take care about my diet but.. my weight is still 88kg..
first please tell me i do 1 months regular exercise but My weight is still 88kg?
and second tell me how can I reduce it..
my height is 5″ 6
and I don’t look very fatty because most of fat is on my lower body..
please suggest me something ??????
Your body must have gotten used to the exercises and walking you do and now adjusts to whatever little calories you are intakingf. this happens in a lot of cases where despite of all efforts you dont lose a bit. breaking this plateau requires a lot of patience …. here is what you can do …….. exercise wise – stop doing what you are already doing for a week … and then you surprise your body with a new activity .. for ex – you have been walking all these days , so now change your activity to swimming / zumba dancing / skatting / gyming / playing badminton or lawn tennis … whatever suits you best. tai chi and kick boxing and pillates work excellently in such cases., i know its hard to find time and availabilty of such sports around you .. but if you want to get there .. you need to find harder !!
Food wise – surprise your body yet agin by co nsuming food stuffs that you never did .. it changes your metabolic graph and hence makes you lose weight …. ex – if you have been eating wheat and rice as staples so far … dont eat them for an entire week , and consume other cereals like bajra , jowar , or ragi …. this funda has worked superbly with my clients .. you can try and see if it suits you too ..
helo maam m kinjal my upper prt of body is quite thin while stomach legs and bums are too big as i look like pear shpd bofy n i cant afford gym wat suld i do n in hw tym it will take fr result
go to youtube and look for fitness blenders , lower body workout videos . you can do that at home.
