I am a 69 year young man. My height is 169 cm and I weigh 79 kg. Last few years I am trying to reduce my weight by 8-9 kg and have tried following 1. Reduce food intake from 2 chapati rice morning evening to first one chapati both times. Last few months I am eating only one meal breakfast. 2. Yog exercises for 1 hr every morning 3. Occasional 30-40 minutes brisk walk. I am also taking Uni Enzyme and Live 52 tab (two tablets) every day. In last two years with these changes, there is no reduction in weight. What should I do?

Scientists now know that the body does not register liquid calories in the same way it does solid calories. Drinking a grande caffe mocha, for instance, won't make you feel satiated the way eating a bowl of pasta will. Which means that although the caffe mocha actually has a greater number of calories than the pasta, you're still more likely to want a second cup from Starbucks than another plate of linguine. So monitor your intake of juice, soda, coffee drinks and wine. If you consume one of each of those beverages during the day, you'll have taken in at least 800 extra calories by nighttime ? and you'll still be hungry. (Incidentally, alcohol may suppress the metabolism of fat, making it tougher for you to burn those calories.)
