U can’t attempt to lose weight… sigh
The last weight/fitness update I did was eons ago… yes please go ahead and scold me I need it….
Let me make a confession here its been 3 months I have gone to the gym…gone to means been regular… the reason is not just laziness thankfully…. I got a terrible neck pain in Feb and since than I havent been able to do any gym… everyday I go to the gym the neck pain comes back with a vengeance… 😦 😦 I have shown multiple doctors and consulted a personal trainer too… practically my only option seems to be either walking or swimming…
And I can’t tell you how sad I am right now that I don’t know how to swim… I have resolved to find a way around this and get myself into coaching once Ojas settles down into school…
I am continuing my walks (they are not very brisk though) and was able to keep up my weight till the last update I did and that was before I started my baking course…
And in comes the baking course and everything is washed down the drain…. Seriously…. I am so damn angry with myself, I have put 1.5 kgs in the last 6 weeks… A very disappointing figure… The thing is when you make around 4-5 dishes in a day, even tasting everyone of them everyday does a great harm to one…
Could I have done without tasting? May be? But frankly personally I think you can’t help but taste… mainly for two reasons
1. u have worked hard on it… since morning 10 to evening 4
2. u learning them and you need to know what is the correct taste like
May be my reasons above are wrong, may be they are not… but the nutshell is that I have put on some weight 😦 And I need to lose it again…
So now that the course is over I begin my weight loss regime all over again….
Brisk walks everyday and strict diet control are going to be the only things I will be able to do right now… hope I am able to change these depressing figures very soon…Wish me luck and yeah scold me if you want
Intial Weight : 94.3kg

Sigh!!! As a die hard foodie, I can understand what you are saying. I love to cook and I love to eat my own cooking. May I recommend Rujuta Diwekar’s Don’t Lose Your Mind, Lose Your Weight ….. its helped me a lot! The lady talks sense and you dont have to struggle with Western dishes that dont suit our palate.
oh i have read this book, a very very good one… infact I think I reviewed it on the blog too
she talks a lot of sense
Mon..do you have the neck pain even while dancing? if not try dance as a form to loose weight…it’s very effective!
dancing is something I havent tried let me try it… its a great idea A
Second!
Gud luck Mons … but dnt u worry .. those reasons r very much valid 😀 😀
thank u swaram
Even I prefer tasting the dishes I make just to know if I’ve got the right proportion and taste. And if one makes such delicasies like you do its only natural to want to lick a bowl or two 😀
Good luck,anyway, to your resolve! I’m sure you’ll achieve the target 🙂
thanks deeps i am hoping that too
😦 Don’t lose track of the weight loss aim!
When you taste something very taste worthy… add it to your calorie counter and ensure you cut down on a meal later in the day.
yeah i need to do it its a great idea
Babe!
U know Ivy, opposite JP Morgan , Marathahalli.. they have swimming classes from morning 6 to 10 for 2 hours.. The lady there will teach u at the pace u want to learn and its for 15 days.. My colleague is going & she is very happy with it, and if u want the deets, ping me, I am online 🙂
u are my saviour i am mailing u right away
I can volunteer to teach you swimming!!
awesome calling u today
U still remain my inspiration, Mon!!
wow thats saying a lot pal… i am honoured
go swimmingggggggggggg
yeah but i need to learn it first
With all the baking and cooking you did..1.5 kgs is nothing..it will go away soon. And swimming is a great alternative….you’ll lose the inches faster and will be more fun!
Whatever you do, don’t aggravate your neck condition…
yeah thats what i am figuring out now how to learn swimming
10 to 4! and just 1.5 kg. I bow to thee, Monika!
And I agree about swimming, its a sure shot fixture for weight loss and fitness. maybe you can take Ojas along and het a coach for him too?
oh they start teaching kids swimming only after 5 yrs before that they have special toddler swimming coaches but he goes to the pool with N (infact I do too) and he is picking up quite some stuff
Bravo Monu, it takes great courage to admit these figures !!! Dont u bother so much – you’ll be back to your dream weight soon !! Have u tried yoga – its great and you dont gain much, if u take a little break. 🙂
thanks uma yeah i tried yoga once but it didnt work for me because of the stupid teacher… i need to give it another shot
Aww, dont worry. Weight changes occur. And I suggest you try dancing. I think it is the most fun exercise ever! Gym is boring.
oh yes i agree with that 100%
