We have not yet decided the date to start the workouts or not even scheduled on what to do.. Since all the 3 are working on various projects on tight deadlines, we have agreed to start the work outs not late than July 10th. Meanwhile my cousin brother Amarnath have joined with us in our weight loss mission.. I would be providing more details later on him or maybe he will write down his own experiences. To begin with I have just weighed myself and measured my hip size..

.

What i found out was pretty discouraging. I weigh about 96 kg or 212 pounds and the hip size is a mega 42 inch. It's uncomfortable to publish the photos here, however I am doing that coz every time I look at it, I will be motivated to shred that fat. There is a heavy downpour here today, so had to remain indoors. I bought a book of Dr.Atkins and browsed through it. He is emphasizing on taking low carbs and more protein. The first thing I did after doing some reading was to google for Dr.Atkins. Wiki says Dr.Atkins have died obese according to the docs. And his wife have defended it saying that the weight was due to the medication given at hospital. Anyways I  have decided to follow Atkins advice for some time and test the results. His diet appears to suit me coz here being surrounded on 3 sides by the sea, we get a lot of sea fish not to mention the abundance of river fish.

The only thing I need to sacrifice is the sweets which I have decided to quit from tomorrow. While writing this I have gobbled 3 big sweet and ripe alfonso mangoes which will be my last in this mango season.
