No I workout early morning hours from 6-8 am. Its been 6th day without sleep. My energy levels are still the same. It seems like the weather is changing from Winters to summer in my country which could be the reason i guess in my case.

Yes you are right. We don't have yoghurt here in India. A different version similar to it is called Curd(dahi). I take most of my protein intake from that. It is full of protein and fat. I recently added that to my diet.

Thank you everyone for your suggestions. Its only 4 months since I started my fitness journey. Good to have so many knowledgeable people here who are offering free fitness tips.

Yup Paneer is most commonly used food at home. You seem to have very good knowledge about Indian food.

That's a really good list. Thanks for suggestion. Only Chia seeds were missing. I have it at home. I will surely add them into my meals.

Yes my family is pure vegetarian. I have been requesting them to let me boil eggs in kitchen which they finally agreed :). I wish one day they will allow me to cook chicken also.

Thanks for understanding my point. Its all a cultural difference. Indians are mostly vegetarians.

thanks for your suggestions. I think I only need to add couple of egg yorks in my diet.

Just that it was difficult to maintain my daily calorie goal of 1500 when I was eating chicken. Its easy with vegetarian food to maintain my goal.

My family is all vegetarians so not allowed to cook at home. The chicken or fish that I get outside contains lot of oil and sausages. So i prefer to avoid them for now :)

Thanks for suggestions. Its been 4 months I have tried all the above sources but I noticed when I added chicken or fish in my diet. My body stopped loosing weight. My goal is to lower down my body fat. I have already lost 10 kilos. But still there is lot of body fat in my body.

I noticed when I started eating chicken and fish. My weight loss stopped. I will surely add them soon in my diet.

Thanks for suggestions.. I noticed when I added Fish and chicken in my diet my weight loss stopped :( I am eating very less to lower down my body fat. I will add them as soon as i will loose another 10 kilos may be

Hi There.. I am from Chandigarh..

Thanks for suggestion. I will surely add abs workout into my routine for this month and then see what difference does it makes :smile:

Do you mean 50 mins or 5 mins?

Thanks for the suggestion!

I like doing abs exercises. It is just that I have a lot of body fat currently in my body. So I am focused more on loosing my body weight than working on my abs.

Thank you so much for your motivation! Appreciate it. I will surely do planks while watching TV as I am always in front of TV at night :smile:

Thanks for the advise. Yes I am a beginner to weight lifting. I will continue the weight loss journey. My body fat is over 22%. The reason i thought of doing ab workout is because my upper body started to look little better than before because that has been regularly utilized doing chest, back, pushups and chinups.. When…

Thanks. I will also try that :)

Thanks for commenting. Yes six-pack is my goal. I will surely add ab workout in my routine.

Will follow your suggetion.

I have read somewhere that its of no use working on your abs if there is a lot of body fat on top of it. That's the reason I am focusing more on burning calories by doing cardio exercices and lifting weights.

Yes you are right @rabbitjb Its my second month now. Should I continue that along with my cardio workouts. Can you see any improvement in my upper body. I feel good after one month of strong lifting. But my lower body still looks the same.
