I seem to have dropped a few kilos. I am not some ripped guy who has a six-pack, or even toned per se. Far from it. Nor was I obese or depressingly overweight. I was just overweight. You could say somewhere between overweight and plump.
And over the past fortnight I have done just three things that have managed to cut down my body weight and greatly increased the happy feeling when I look at myself in the mirror. And how have I achieved this? Not by hitting the gym everyday (though I now am moti-weighted enough to do so, and will.), nor by dieting like there is no tomorrow.
All I did was,
1. Have a warm glass of water with honey, first thing after waking up every morning.
(Recipe: Take a glass. Put a tablespoon full of honey in it. Fill the glass with water. Microwave it. Drink.)
2. Use the stairs instead of the elevator.
3. Cut out some food things from my diet.
(This doesn't mean you avoid it like the plague. It just means you don't over- indulge. You like Rice? Have it only once or twice a week. Have smaller quantities. Have lesser number of Bananas. Don't drink as much cola. I have been drinking a litre of Cola almost everyday for the past 12 years. Now I drink maybe 300ml twice a week. Replace it with some other drink that you like. Like a Iced Tea or something.)
This is all I did. And in two weeks I have lost 3 kilos or so. This isn't some mantra or some hard and fast rule. Just something that worked for me.
And I feel good.
