You need to keep a food diary, record everything that you eat and drink during the day even snacks and stuff like coke ect.

Find out whats in the curry, if you dont make it yourself who knows whats going in it. there might be loads of salt/fats ect going in there that your not aware off.

if your not in a calloire surplus and your exersiseing then weight loss is unavoidable so the callories must be comming from somewhere - Its just finding out whats causeing it.

A calloire controled diet with self dicipline will always work with exersise the body cannot maintain weight in a callorie deficit with exersise its impossible.

try this,

for breakfast have a bowl of cornflakes.

for lunch have a salad

for dinner have a proper meal.

Drink water throughout the day not tea.

But thing is most people snack through the day, sometimes not even thinking about it...


Good luck!

its easy i make the curry my self

in the start u fry onions till there brown mostly in 4 table spoons of oil and add garlic and ginger and add tomatoes and salt red chillies but i prefer black pepper and cook it till the oil is released and then add meat or veg
and cook it on low heat till tender.

thats it .

whats the portion size though? are you cooking for a family or just yourself? Its hard to calculate the callories in a meal like that without knowing how much of each thing is in the meal.

but odds are theres less bad things in the meal because its home cooked compaired to a supermarket thing.

semeenali

mostly for the family but when i was on the calorie counting i used to weigh everything and cook seperatly but i dont wanna do the calorie controlled diet i want to do the low carb diet.

Low or 0 carbs meens your have to eat lots of proteins, that will cause a number of problems, your sweat more, and your breath will smell. Maby your thinking of doing the Atkins diet?

I wouldnt do somthing like that myself - I think it puts a big stress on the internal organs.

Theres quite a few diet gurus on the site, Im sure there be able to answer all your questions on this topic though - just give it some time.

semeenali

thanks wogihao but for ur advise and being so helpful i will wait for someone to advise me on the low carb diet plan.atkins if it is.

i dont mind the bad breath to loose weight for a while will use mints alot lolzz.

and please i dont want to use the protein shakes if someone advises me i want to do it all home cooked.

you seem set on the low carb diet and don't seem to want to take on any other ideas. People can see that so won't bother adding anything.

there are a million and one books on atkins...

if you are that set on low carb...

how long is a bit of string?


some lose a few pounds, some lose stones in weight but.....

losing weight is not the whole story...

i've been trying for years till i saw the light... you want to lose fat, not weight.

first thing to do... throw away your bathroom scales... invest in a tape measure.

now, don't get me wrong in this but i'm guessing you are arabic/muslim/asian and female. If so, i would not expect you post any pictures even though this is normal for here.. (even i posted mine).

your first question has to be one of support. does your family support you in your goal? Mine are sort of behind me... my wife never had a weight problem... well, she has.... there is nothing of her at size 6... my kids are wanting to eat healthy...

if you have no support, you can still do it but you will find it harder going.

you have to choose a diet and stick to it. the guys on here are brilliant. have a look at pscarbs carb cycling threads. it really is better long term than fads like atkins, zone and other commercially touted weight loss plans. The whole idea is to lose fat, not weight....

start out with this thread....http://www.uk-muscle.co.uk/losing-we...b-cycling.html

then formulate a plan.

post it here and then you will find lots of people willing to help.

thanks alot for the help but my family is my 4 year old son and one husband lolz and i dont live with family plus under certain circumstances support from them is a far away thing.

i had a good thought on it and i just want to eat healthy and i think i cannot stick to the low carb diet for more then 3 or 4 days so no point going on it.

and yes i have took the measuring tape and i have lost inches i have gone down to a dress size 14 from a 18 in 2 months but i think that was because of the diet pills named star pills from ebay i took them a month during that month i lost no weight was still a dress size 18 but within the next month i went down to a dress size 14 and i lost inches but weight was the same.{i was not on the pills this month}

and i ate healthy no junk food during that time.and at the moment again im on a different fat burner called grenade.seems its not working but i put a break on it for a week will start again next week.

so from now can anyone advise a good eating plan?
and slam thanks again.

it is late so i cannot go into detail but you can never pre-plan how much weight you will lose on any diet as many factors come into play.

i have stripped 6stone from one person i have dropped my sister down from a size 22 to a 12 in a year but then i have had clients where they have only dropped 10lbs.....

constant low carb diets are not healthy and cannot be maintained long term but you need to be able to stick to a diet for longer than 3 days, i would say that when you did low carbs you did not raise your fats as this is a common reason for these diets failing....

i will put a better plan together over the weekend when i have more time.
