  Thank you IL and GIS Team for starting this contest. I adopted a new healthy lifestyle because of this contest. All the best for the participants to reach their goal. Thanks everybody for providing their schedule and tips, it motivated me to stay focused on my goal.

As I mentioned in my goal, I still see this contest as gaining healthy life style rather than losing weight.

Here I am with my experience during the contest. It helped me a lot in strictly following the diet and workout schedule. The best part was I went for walk whenever the sky was clear during the storm. Now the fruits are integral part of my meal and I know how to control the portion of intake. Now I reduced the cooking quantity to half and still feeling stomach full for every meal. I can see the change in my husband's habits too. It's true that the lady of the home plays vital role in family following good food habits. We didn't eat out throughout the month even on important occasions instead prepared lots of good meals at home. I can see the glow in my skin because of drinking more water. Sorry for long post, there are lots of improvements to mention.

 
  Thanks to Indusladies and Desidieter for coming up with such a contest, where myself and many IL friends were able to start with a good healthy lifestyle, which includes a regular exercise.
I am happy that I joined this group from the beginning.

 
  This is a wonderful site and I feel proud to be a part of it.

 
  Thanks to all. This is a really good idea of tracking our daily necessary activities.

This healthy competition helps to start a habit of drinking more water in these days, now it is my one of my habits drinking lot of water daily which is good for health.

Thanks to Indusladies and desidieter.com

Your Daily tips are really helpful for me. You are doing a good job of motivating people to stay healthy.

I have lost some pounds of weight so far. Thankfully!

 
  In this one month, I learnt healthy eating habits/tips/recipes, necessity of physical exercises, requirement of water and importance of sleep to our body. Not only me, but my family members are also taking more veggies and fruits these days. Whenever I call up any of my relatives/friends, if we happen to talk about food/wt. loss, I share some of the health tips given here with them. Hope to see the inspired ones in this site soon.

Thanks to the whole team for the encouragement and support provided.

Wish you all Healthy & Happy living

 
  Thanks again to Indus Ladies and DesiDieter for this chance to be a part of a group of people who are working towards similar goals. It has helped me and motivated me to try to stick to the 4 daily factors being evaluated - exercise, diet, water consumption and sleep - which has produced some benefits which will motivate me to keep up with these habits.

The net effect is that I have met my goal of losing at least a pound a week, since I have lost 6 pounds.

The other benefit I have experienced relates to my legs. I was unable to climb stairs or stand or walk for more than a few minutes at a time. My rheumatologist recommended that I do stationary biking and January 2010 is the first month that I have consistently kept up this exercise, due to your challenge. Keeping this in mind you would appreciate how important it is for me to say that I am feeling more flexibility in my left knee and strength in the muscles of my legs since I have regularly been working out on the stationary bike for your challenge, for as many minutes as my legs will let me each day.

So, for me the benefits are already evident and I am going to continue further and try to achieve my goal of shedding another 80 pounds or so this year.

Thanks again, and all the best to the other ladies who have kept up the momentum of the challenge and inspired me with their consistent and commendable efforts.

 
  This contest has been a huge learning experience for me. I made a food diary where I was writing my daily food intake, exercise, and water intake. Within days it helped me to see my weak areas and how to improve my eating habits and routine.

I am very satisfied and happy with the result. During this month I didn't get hunger pangs coz I was eating at regular intervals and eating healthy. I m going for 1 hr of pilates class 3 times a weeks and I am doing 30 mins aerobics at home 3 times a week with DVD.

I know that I can sustain this lifestyle for a long time to come. I don't have to starve myself or give up any kind of food. If I don't exercise for 1 day then I make up for it the next day or I just go for a walk.

The golden mantra which I learnt in this contest is moderate and regular intake of food and liquids and regular movement of the body, in whatever way possible.

I said in the beginning of this contest.....we are gonna do it......and yes girls, we did it

Congratulations to all participants and GIS team.

 
  Today being the last day of the contest, I thank DesiDieter's team first, for giving this wonderful opportunity to change all of our diet patterns. I really enjoyed this and would like to have the balanced diet forever.

See u in other contests.

I am glad to inform you that my diet has improved so much after joining this contest and can continuously maintain the fruit and veggie part which I was not regular before. Consumption of Junk food is also cut totally.

I am going to check my weight tomorrow and can record the BMI after that.

Thanks for your constant motivation. Keep it up!!!
