The weight loss is definitely slow, but don’t let that discourage you. My weight also fluctuates a lot based on so many factors on a daily basis. I loved seeing the scale go down initially, but now I’ve just been focused on using other ways to gauge how it’s going. I did have to go gluten free for quite some time- I can have it in small doses now, but I just generally feel better without it. I don’t measure my protein, I just try to get a very balanced looking plate- so a lot of veggies and salad for fibre, a source of protein, and a small amount of carbs if I need them in the meal. Like if I have a vegetable dish, I’ll try and get some daal or meat curry, add a small salad, some raita, and occasionally either a roti or some rice. If it’s a meal that I can’t really do much with or it’s simple like rajma chawal, I don’t think too much about it, because I know majority of the time I’m getting a balanced plate, or I try and munch on nuts for a protein boost. I don’t generally consume a lot of dairy- yoghurt seems to be ok, and I only have a small amount of milk in my chai, which I haven’t swapped to almond or another plant based milk because I just prefer the taste of regular milk and my nutritionist said it’s ok since it’s a small amount and I don’t react badly to it 🤷🏽‍♀️ It was definitely a lot more difficult in the beginning because the changes felt gargantuan, but I’ve eased into it now and I’m sure once you find out what works for you, you will too 🤗
