How to lose weight with home cooked food

Hello everyone, My name is Krish Thukral   , and I was struggling to lose weight and thought of giving up. I used to work out regularly and still couldn't see any results. I was on the verge of giving up. I had a habit of eating a lot of food and had a bad routine (sleeping late at night/drinking alcohol/having junk food). Then I consulted a nutritionist. I thought it would be a good idea to add something new in my lifestyle as my routine created no results at all. I was 95 kg chubby guy and wanted to have a presentable physique. By the nutritionist I was given a triangle diet and that did the trick for me. I was told to eat the most in the morning and the least at night. There were specific timings for everything. Eating breakfast before 9 AM, lunch before 1: 30 and dinner at 8 PM. My diet including only home cooked food and i. It all the outside junk food with the extra calories. Please note, in this diet I was told to not eat any sugar apart from the sugar arrived from fruits. That means no. Cola and chocolates. I was also told to have 5 liters of water every day! At first, I felt like it was a torture for me. I felt like giving up on eating only home cooked (included eggs/chicken/fiber arrived from fruits/ no rice after lunch). But then my goal was set , and I had made up my mind to change my body. Slowly and slowly I started seeing results. My waist line was going narrow and I was having a V shaped body. I was amazed how just a few dieting tips was changing my body so quickly! I was getting compliments and felt more like continuing this lifestyle. In just 3 months of discipline I lost 20 kgs and looked like an athlete. I thanked my nutritionist for changing my life! I still continue the triangle diet and it's just a start to my fitness lifestyle! When my diet changed I also noticed that my strength in the gym increased drastically. My stamina increased as well and I felt great and healthy. The core reason for my weight loss was a caloric deficit. As I cut down all the unhealthy food and had meals on time. My body used to fast for a very long period of time which in turn made me lose weight. My body fat percentage was declining as I was training 1.5 hours daily( included 30 mins cardio and 1 hour weight training, specific body part was trained everyday). While training I trained my legs more as it enlightened my harmone levels ( did alot of squats and leg presses). This really increased my metabolism as even when I was done working out my body was still burning calories ( benefits of weight training). I would like to tell you all that it's all on you how you want to live your life. It's YOU that define if you want to live average or look class apart.
