If you are happy with the results after following our fitness plans, continue following them. Don t assume that you can now start eating anything because you have lost weight and you will workout to maintain it at that level. If only exercise could help you lose weight, people would be sitting with a bucket of fried chicken post a workout session.
Morning Lauki or bottle gourd juice is not just for diabetics of old aged people. It keeps your blood sugar level in control and also has a cooling effect on your body. Begin your day with a glass of freshly made lauki juice to experience its health benefits.
Breakfast A besan chila or pancake is a delicious breakfast item. Don t eat it with white bread. Instead, add some veggies to make it even more healthy and filling. This recipe for cabbage pancakes is a healthy twist to the traditional besan pancakes.
Lunch A pulao that has less rice and more veggies is perfect for lunch. You can certainly replace the rice with quinoa or brown rice and it will still taste as nice as the usual pulao. Here s a recipe for mixed veg pulao that can be enjoyed with a raita or kadhi.
Snacks Don t stuff yourself with snacks that you feel bloated during dinner time. For your evening snacking, you can have a bowl of hot soup too. This apple pumpkin soup by Chef Ranveer Brar is just appropriate for the light evening snacking.
Dinner If you are bored of eating wheat rotis every day, try bajra rotis for dinner along with baingan bharta or baingan masala. It s a perfect combination and great for your heart health too.
Exercises
At home Crunches are one of the most common exercises performed to get toned abs. They improve core strength too. You can easily perform them at home after a light warm up. However, remember to do them correctly else it could lead to back pain. Here are a few mistakes you might be making while doing crunches.
Yoga Another interesting exercise or yoga pose to build core strength is the Vrikshasana or the tree pose. It boosts the digestive system and also increases focus. Apart from abdominal muscles, it also tones the arm and thigh muscles.
At the gym Sculpt your back with the seated cable rows exercise at the gym. Since your biceps, back muscles and shoulders are engaged in this exercise, it helps in overall toning.
Sleep well tip When you lie down in bed, instead of focusing on the problems or challenges you faced during the day, think of the good things. This will relieve the negative thoughts from your mind and help you sleep peacefully.
