Of course. one baby-step at a time. Nice pointers BTW.0

500 calorie deficit is fine and I wouldn't expect that to cause starvation mode. Maybe try cutting 10% of your carbs and see what difference this makes after a week or two. As Kendra says - don't do to many things at once.0

Advi,
see to it that you get proper sleep of atleast 8hours and have your dinner 2hours before going to bed. This has helped me for good results.
All the best.0 -
Not everyone needs 8 hours sleep, but I agree that getting a good night's sleep will certainly help overall.Advi,

Hehe.. actually 8 hrs is 'super-luxury'. I am not sleep deprived but I get around 6 hrs. I am fine with that. Cos I've a toddler at home and putting her to sleep is like waging WW-3. After she hits the bed at 1130, I get some time to finish my other chores. That way - yes, I've more than 2 hrs before I hit the bed.0 -

3/23: 83.4 kgs (Now left with last 5Kgs and that is gonna be tough)
3/30: 82.6 kgs
4/06: 82.2 kgs
4/13: 81.9 kgs (focusing more on weight training and protein rich food)
4/20: 81.3 kgs (but body fat % reduction is not
encouraging)
4/27: 81.2 kgs (skipped exercise this week... Feels nice to be just lazy at times)
4/300 -
Yes, Arvi.. being lazy if fun (occasionally)
4/13: 80.3 KG
4/20: 81.4 KG
4/27: 80.4 KG
That means, I have increased by approx 100 g in the last 2 weeks. With P90X, I am not sure how much fat I actually lose and how much muscle I gain. My pants slide down dangerously to 'Jennifer Lopez's Level'
Though I am not very happy about my pants position, I am happy that I am losing inches around the midriff.0 -

New month New goal..
Dont ask me about April. It didnt go quite as I expected and I ended up eaching nowhere near my goal
Goal for 5/31 - 196 lbs
5/5 - 200.2 lbs0 -
Good to see people continuing with this. Let's really push to try and reach our goals this month (in a healthy way).0

I agree with Greeshu. Scale didn't budge at all. However, there were a few NSVs last month. I dropped 2 pant size and I've started using belt for my jeans. So, this May I do not want to set any mini-goal w.r.t weight. I would probably stick with non-wt goals and see how things change. (Hope my P90X will do the magic for me this month :P )
Cheers

Yes indeed. Weight alone is not the ultimate measurement - I actually prefer to track BF% to get a more accurate picture of what is going on. Its harder to predict and set a goal so I will continue to track my trend weight.
Those are great NSVs Advi.0 -
I am back after a lonnnnnngggg bread filled with weddings and lottts of food. I am ready to get back on track.0

Ahhh there you are Aditi - I wondered where you'd after being the one who started this thread. Welcome back.0

Ok I am putting it out there so that I am accountable...
By 15th june I have to lose at least 4 kgs
I am 86.1 kgs now so 15th june I should be at least 82 kgs
Every week I will enter my wt here on the day everyone does their weigh-in here.
So people lets do it together whatever your method is...if you do not want to use the scale then use a tape but set a short term target.
So these are the weigh-in dates by ChetThaker which I will follow

That's nice Chet.
Well.. for me - Scale didn't budge much but now I fit comfortably in my new pair of pants. (Good NSV for this month!)
Another NSV for this week - I need another hole in my belt!

Nice - that's usually a better indication of your body changing even if the scales are not moving as much.
Where are everyone else's updates - I can't be the only one still doing this? ;-)0
