Introduction :)

Hi everyone, so today we decided to make a blog about our weight loss journey ! 

We are two sisters who have both been overweight for most of our lives, and now this is the time to make a change! 

We started last Sunday together, and today is Saturday, so tomorrow it will be a week since we started our weight loss journey :) 

To control our diet, we first decided that we should control our calorie intake and record everything that we  eat. So we started to use the app 'myfitnesspal', which has been very useful in recording all our food! 

We are south asian, so we tend to eat a lot of curries and rice and bread, fortunately we can now control our intake with this app, because it has almost all of the different home made curries we eat! 

Secondly, for exercise, we started Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred DVD. We have been doing it consistently since Sunday. It was really difficult the first few days, and we were and still are in a bit of pain. But it feels really good after we workout! It's only 20 minutes so it doesn't feel like we've spent the whole day working out, but it is a rigorous 20 minutes, so it should make a difference! 

We first took our measurements last Sunday, so tomorrow we will be taking our second lot of measurements! Hopefully we will see a bit of change! (We might be a little pissed off if we don't) 

So here are our measurements from Week 1 (aka Day 1) - we put the measurements that were required in the myfitnesspal app because it made it easier for us to take everything down :) 

Sister 1
Weight - 77.9 kg 
Height - 157 cm

Hips - 116 cm

Sister 2

Tomorrow we will post up the results for week 1!

We will try and update almost every day! We'll also post up some vegetarian recipes (because sister 2 is vegetarian) 

Thanks for reading! 

And good luck to anyone on their weight loss journey :)
