Hello!
Congratulations for losing 7 kg! Think positive! Let me first give you a sample 1200 calorie vegetarian meal plan to look at and to use as an example to make up your own plan using similar foods to what is on my diet.

1200 Calorie Vegetarian Indian Diet Plan Menu to Lose Weight

By following this menu guide, you will be able to restrict your food consumption to just 1200 calories to 1300 calories a day and thereby you will feel lighter after a couple of weeks of following this weight loss diet menu. The vegetarian diet menu is as follows:
Early Morning (7 Am):
o A glass of lukewarm water with lemon (0 calories).
o A cup of tea with skim milk, no sugar and 2 biscuits (90 calories)
Breakfast (8 am):
o 2 Wheat Rotis or chapattis tortillas + ½ cup of Paneer gravy (tofu is better) (330 calories). Or
o A plate of brown bread upma and a cup of skim milk (300 calories).
Mid-Morning Snack: (10:30 am):
o A banana or 20 Grapes or ½ cup melon (50 calories).
Lunch (1 pm):
o 1 cup of brown rice (200 grams) + ½ cup mixed vegetables + one small bowl of Raitha + 1 bowl vegetable salad (345 calories).
Evening (4 pm):
o Butter Milk 1 glass or 1 cup (35 calories)
Dinner (8 pm):
2 Chappatis or Rotis Mean Tortillas + 1 bowl of Vegetable Soup + 1 bowl of salad (370 calories)

The total calories you will consume in this vegetarian diet is about 1220 calories.

Then, exercise about 250 minutes per week or about 35 minutes per day choosing from such exercises as Power Yoga, Video Tapes, brisk walking . .

If you have access to green tea take 6 oz in am to stimulate metabolism.
