Along with your abs, back, chest, thighs and waistline, you must also ensure that you are losing weight from your face. A double chin makes you look older. Follow a good routine for cleansing your face, use good products and practice face exercises to bring back the youth and glow.
Morning When was the last time you had a cup of green or herbal tea in the morning. These teas are rich in antioxidants and help keep most diseases at bay. It also revs up your metabolism and improves digestion.
Breakfast If you have regular idli batter at home, add some chopped veggies to it to make vegetable idli. You can even sprinkle the vegetables over the idli batter once it is poured in the moulds. Skip the sambar as it has a lot of calories. You can enjoy your vegetable idlis with healthy green chutney.
Lunch Indulge in some healthy coriander chicken curry today along with some steamed brown rice or bhakris. Nachni or ragi bhakris go really well with chicken curry. You can make it spicy if you like it, as eating spicy food also helps you lose weight.
SnacksBruschettas are crispy, delicious, healthy and low calorie. One portion of bruschetta packs only 125 calories. The tomatoes in the recipe are rich in antioxidants that keep several infections and diseases at bay.
Dinner Have this high protein and spicy soya bhurji for dinner today. The best part about this dish is that you don t need any accompaniments. However, if you are still craving something to go with it, you can have a small phulka or multigrain bread along with it.
Exercises
At home You can use different spaces in your home for exercising. The wall, couch, doorframe, stairs, floor can all act as your props or equipment. Try these 5 exercises using different spaces in your house to tone your body and lose weight.
Yoga Toning and slimming of face are also important. You obviously don t want a plump, round face with a slim body. Practice face yoga to bring back the glow and shed some fat from your cheeks and chin. You can also try these anti-ageing facial yoga to keep your skin healthy.
At the gym If you are aiming for bulky shoulders, then you must try the Arnold press at the gym. The wide range of motions in this exercise help you achieve what most shoulder exercises fail at. You ll need dumbbells and some assistance if you are doing it for the first time.
Sleep well tip Lack of sleep or improper sleep can lead to obesity, depression, loss of focus and affects your general well-being. Make time to go to bed on time everyday so you can wake up in time. Both your body and mind need rest and if you sleep at the same time every day, it ll be easier to form a habit.
