My 90 Day Experiment - Get Fit

Hello,

Let me start off with saying that whatever I do here, I am just winging it. I am experimenting to figure out if I can lead a healthy life, lessen my current health issues (bloating), and also lose some weight while staying true to my lifestyle, tradition as well as eating and workout habits. 

I have always been told that I am fat, and while I feel that I may be a little on the chubbier side, fat is not what I will call myself. But of course, this constant reminders have made me want to shed some weight, and dieting and following a strict workout regime isn't something that I can do. Also, with a full time job also drains my energy to do something constructive for myself. 

So this is me giving myself 90 days to conduct an experiment on myself. 

This is an experiment that I am doing, do not take it as a diet plan or my weight loss journey etc etc. please dont categorise it because honestly I am not sure what I am doing.
 
I will just be posting here to motivate myself and help me be accountable.

Day 1
Over the weekend, I did eat a lot of home cooked food. I have been feeling bloated ever since, today however, I woke up feeling a little better. 

    Food I ate:
  1. Warm Water
  2. 5 Soaked Almonds and Raisins
  3. Chai and Marie Biscuit
  4. Water with some Sabja seeds
  5. Dal, rice and some methi pakoda
  6. Banana Chips (I small bowl)
  7. 3 Bread slices with 1 small bowl of Dal
Water intake was good, I didn't count liters but I was hydrated through the day. 
   
Workout:
50 crunches
Walked for half hour, the speed wasn't much so I guess I waslked around 1.5kms
Climbed up 25 stairs

Day 2
Weight: lost 0.6kgs

I am a little bloated today though. Hopefully will feel better as the day passes. 

Food:
  1. A glass of warm water
  2. 5 almonds and some raisins
  3. Chai and 4 small Khari Biscuits
  4. Water with Sabja seeds
  5. Homemade Chicken Biryani and Carrot
  6. A piece of Cadbury Dark Chocolate
  7. Half a Watermelon
  8. A small bowl of Banana Chips
  9. 2 and a half Chapati with chicken curry 
  10. A piece of Cadbury Dark Chocolate
Water intake is good, I feel hydrated. 
Workout: 50 crunches
Walked for half hour, the speed wasn't much so I guess I waslked around 1.5kms

Day 3
Weight: Lost 0.2kgs

Food:
  1. A glass of warm water
  2. 5 almonds and some raisins
  3. Chai and Pav toasted
  4. Water with Sabja Seeds
  5. Homemade Ragda Pattice 
  6. 3 small Jalebi
  7. Half a Mango
  8. Watermelon
  9. 1 Cheese Pav (as evening snack)
  10. 1 Cheese Pav (as dinner)

The one thing that I have started doing it chewing my food. I have always been a slow eater - because chewing used to take time - but now I am being extra careful about it. I take 1 serving and fill the plate with the amount I feel like eating. I generally avoid 2nd serving. Then sit and eat for at least 30-40 minutes. I guess that is helping a lot.

The nuts that I have in the morning has helped with my constipation, my bowel movements are like clockwork now and I am loving it. I read up on it and apparently Raisins help you with constipation and digestion. So, if you are facing similar issues, try having 7-8 raisins first thing in the morning. Also, don't forget to stay hydrated. 

However today I ate a lot of Pav, which is not a good thing. I am worried that tomorrow The weighing scales are not going to make me happy.
