    Your 'Aha' weight-loss moments

    Weight Loss Glory of losing 110 pounds

     
    I have a weight loss story of losing 110 pounds(50 Kg ) in a span of one year. I lost 50 kg in year 2002 and I have managed to maintain my weight for past 11 years. I have been obese right from my childhood until age 25. The reason for me to be overweight was eating too much
    food always and that too junk food. Basically I led an unhealthy lifestyle

    I landed up into a hospital at age 25 having high Blood Pressure and high cholesterol. Also my mother was a diabetic and suffered chronic renal failiure.
    The reason to live a healthy life and not to suffer as my mother did motivated me to embark my journey of losing weight and moving towards good health.
    I followed very slowly a healthy lifestyle of proper exercise , proper diet and proper rest as per my physical and mental capacity. I started walking daily and slowly incorporated rope skipping in my daily schedule of exercise.
    I gave up sugar and fried food and included fruits, vegetables and lentils as main part of my meals . I made it sure that I slept at least 8 hours daily. It took me a complete year to lose 110 pounds of weight.

    The key to my success has been never compromising on healthy nutrition. Due to work schedule I have missed out on my exercise schedules many times , but i made it sure that I consistently followed a healthy eating pattern daily.
    People do not believe I am the same person . I keep getting comliments . That keeps me motivated.
    All me health parameters(Blood Pressure, cholesterol, etc)
    which were in the wrong range when I was obese are now in the right range . That keeps me motivated.
    Above all a good health happiness feeling keeps me motivated.
    I pray every day and thank god for giving me an opportunity in this life to experience weight loss benefits and good health.


    I learnt a lot about nutrition and exercise during my weight loss journey . I propagate the message of good health through the following websites:
