My Angel's first glimpse

16th February 2009 just looks like yesterday and my marriage just seems as recent past. With those beautifual memories still fresh in my mind; i have been blessed with another blissful female in my life. I am so glad and I welcome this little cute angel in my life. She is so calm, serene and charming that I don't even have words to explain her completely. Will write about her soon. Till then adore her first glimpse.

How to reduce weight - Introduction

In last 10 years i have three times successfully increased my weight :-D and was twice able to reduce it. This time when i have kept a resolution to reduce it again, i really want to blog out my complete plan and various stages of execution.

This will help me to keep my weight in check. But as we all know it is a human tendency to incline towards what we like rather what is correct. So these posts of mine will help me in future to get back to proper shape.

First i will like to remind myself to couple of facts :
  1. Weight reduction is must for me and i can't be relaxed about it.
  2. I can't stress myself for weight reduction otherwise I will loose the charm of losing weight. ( I love such catch22 scenarios)
  3. Weight reduction has to be step by step. With achievable steps first so that it gives me encouragement.
  4. It is important to understand which task is achievable. Following is definition for achievable tasks : Tasks that can be performed with least effort in given conditions and produces maximum benefits.
  5. Understanding environment dependencies. There are various factors which are not in our hands but are dependent on people around us. One can be strong willed and defy all local factors but one should consider cost involved in defying them. For example, I come from an Indian family so if i think of fasting and then reducing my weight then I might not succeed. There will be times when my mother/wife will convince me to eat that they have cooked with efforts. Hence effort involved to reduce weight by solving these complex scenarios will be tooo high. So never get involved in complex scenarios.
With above facts in mind i need to document my realistic (rather than idealistic) goals.
  1. My main goal is to get my BMI to 25. (Say X kilos) {don't want to share my current weight as of now}
  2. Current Weight is X + 18 Kilos.
  3. Time frame to achieve this goal is 1 year. I want to keep it realistic ( I know am lenient with myself) but i think it is fair keeping Point #2 (from facts) in mind :).
  4. My first month goal is to get to X + 15 kilos.

Will be writing about how to get to first goal in next post.
Till then keep blogging.
