Weight Loss – Options and Tips in India

6 Sep

Mirror, mirror on the wall who is the most beautiful of them all? Is that a question which you no longer dare to ask ? Maybe those melt in the mouth sweets, scrumptious pizzas and the sinful paneer pasandas you gorged on over the Weight Lossmonths are accountable.

Countless times we hear people say, ‘ I just didn’t realise when and how I put on all this weight‘. Maybe while one was busy juggling that hectic worklife and home, when junk food became the norm and no time for exercise your escape route.

But some snide remarks later, you wake up to the alarming truth and don’t know what to do. Firstly don’t despair, as the saying goes ‘jab jaago tabhi savera’, if you have the will there are many a slimming solutions to help pave the way .In today’s day and age there is no dearth of options:

Dietary Supplements:

There are quick fix solutions like the famous Dr. Nigam’s weight loss programme, Slim On Phone, wherein they promise a new you in as less as 30 days. Then you have meal replacement supplements, like the delicious diet shake provided by Herbalife, this takes care of 2 of your meals a day and helps you reach your favoured figure in a reasonably short time.

Fad Diets:

Also at any given time certain fad diets become the rage the world over, the cabbage soup diet, the atkins diet have all enjoyed great popularity one time or the other . The current craze is the all new raw banana diet and the lemon detox diets. The Japaneses are said to be so taken with the banana diet that there is a shortage of bananas in the market and even with imports the demand has outstripped supplies. However fad diets while showing real quick results are more often than not risk diets.

Exercising and Yoga:

Then there are people who stay staunch followers of the adage ‘no pain no gain’ and strongly support the long road to the gym or power yoga where a certain amount of discipline, determination and a good trainer can help you work Yoga and Exercisewonders. Check open2save for some free gym trials.

Pick up a popular video of yoga by Swami Ramdev or the latest yoga guru our very own svelte and sexy, Shilpa Shetty and you can kickstart your weight loss programme in the privacy of your home.

Slimming Clinics:

These centres like VLCC, Vibes, The BodyCare comprise a combination of machine induced workouts, dietary guidance and some basic exercise to help attain that much desired look and a healthier you.These centres also enlist the cooperation of the client’ s family in order to get more sustained results, also holding counselling sessions to help reinforce and maintain positive long term life style changes.

Earlier the cost of many of these programmes was a major consideration for a lot of people but today with discount coupons on many of these schemes, where you may get a tummy tuck session free with your weight loss programme or a ‘ lose upto 10 kilos, on a 5 kilo loss ‘ , package it has become quite viable and no doubt tempting. The websites of these centres have some real value coupons, or you can look up the same at open2save and download your favourite center’s coupons. open2save also lists exclusive offers only for members.

How to select your weight loss program?

Quite possibly all this seems a bit too much and you are now in a quandry as to which route is the right one for you. That depends on your goal as also the time and effort you’re ready to put in.

If looking for very short term results, you have to get to a certain size at any cost then fad diets and supplments could be the answer. Of course these may not be the most sustainable for you even in medium term and you may end up looking for the next weight loss program soon!!

If you want to follow the middle path, slimming centres especially ones with a more holistic approach to weight management, maybe your calling. However these will need very sustained efforts over longer periods to maintain the new look.

But the best option remains exercising and watching your diet in a healthy way. This way, you manage your weight in the most sustainable way and also it comes with some serious positive side effects of better life-style, more positivity and overall a much healthier you. Research has proven that exercising even for short periods reduces stress and makes you more positive.

So take your pick and get ready to wow the mirror again.
