How to lose weight? Oh, come on! Every other person in the world seems to be on a quest for an answer to weight loss. Most people know that lifestyle changes can help them. But are we ready to accept these changes to lose weight? It requires great motivation to actually get there and get losing. Those who know the key might lack motivation, and there are those who are motivated and all charged up and looking out for a perfect plan to follow for weight loss. Tips that may work on man, may not work that well on a woman. So dear readers, if you are looking for an answer on “How to lose weight?” you will find your answer in this article.
If you want to know how to lose weight, first you must decide how much you really need to lose. When you begin a weight loss program, the first step is to know where you are stand on your BMI (body mass index) scale. Calculate your BMI. Aim to be healthy, not skinny. And set a realistic goal. The label “size 0 “does not stand anywhere near “healthy”.
A lot of people completely give up on eating. Or pass the day on just liquids or even a single cucumber. Such kind of crash dieting only leads to failure. All you lose is your confidence and motivation, and not weight. The right approach is to calculate your BMR “(Minimum calories required by your body to carry on the important processes in your body) and consume a minimum of those many calories, to sustain body processes. You can also analyze your body fat percentage to know how much fat needs to be lost.
Extremes are bad, even for weight loss. So how to lose weight? Divide your weight loss into 3 phases.

Any food that makes you feel good now but guilty later, or you get conscious while eating, or those foods that you eat on the sly are definitely not correct for your weight loss. Start by dropping maida, refined flours, too much sugar, salt, oil, butter, ghee, margarine.
If you consumed 3 roti / 4 slices of bread or 1 soup bowl full rice, cut it to 1/3rd. Consume only 2 roti/ 3 slices of bread or 1/3 rd bowl rice.

Dear mam,
I read about your one month diet plan book

Mam I'm working hard to lose weight but I'm not able to do I'm playing batminton and going for walking but there is no result and I completely reduced Salt intake... But no results I'm now 65 kg I want my weight to be 50 how many months I need what should I do mam
Your body must have gotten used to the exercises and walking you do and now adjusts to whatever little calories you are intaking. this happens in a lot of cases where despite all efforts you don't 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/skating/ gyming / playing badminton or lawn tennis … whatever suits you best. tai chi and kickboxing and pilates work excellently in such cases., I know it's hard to find time and availability of such sports around you .. but if you want to get there .. you need to find harder !!
Diet wise - Change your food pattern and eating timings. for ex . you can change the type of food you eat. if you were eating rotis , you can now change that , and introduce millets , sprouts and rice in your meals , and vice versa . change from eating wheat roti to bajra , jowar etc ... this way the body will take time to adjust to the new routine and will start losing weight again.
