5 REALISTIC SACRIFICES I made to drop 27 kgs
1. I let go of the need to see fast results: Slowly and steadily is the only way to go if you want to lose weight and maintain it! If you lose too fast with extreme diets the probability of gaining it back also is higher.
2. Sugar was a BIG No on MOST days
Yes having a balanced diet is very important. Being too restrictive is harmful in the long run, but giving into your cravings too frequently will slow down the progress unnecessarily. Plan your meals, plan your indulgences and whenever possible swap the cravings for healthier alternatives and when you know you’re disciplined give in a little here and there once in a while.
3. Early dinners
This one took time. I had to train my mind and body that eating by sunset was right for me. I did crave food while sleeping for a few days but once my body had adapted to this new lifestyle there was no going back. If and when I am forced to eat late dinners owing to social commitments now, I tend to feel heavy and uneasy while sleeping.
4. Perfectionism
This should have been first on the list. This is the first thing to let go off when trying to lose weight or improve your health overall! No two days are alike, some are extremely productive where you get everything right, food, steps, workout, water intake, sleep every single aspect is spot on and on most days you lack in something or the other and that’s all right. Consistency takes precedence over perfection here.
5. Punishment loop
I gave up on the idea of punishing myself for eating a piece of cake on my birthday by running for two hours on the treadmill and instead inculcated a wholesome relationship with food and my body. Where I take of my body and it’s needs 80-85% of the times and the remaining times when I indulge, my body supports me by metabolising the food.
Take one day at a time, set realistic goals, don’t be in a hurry and no one can stop you from achieving your goals.

We tend to complicate the simplest of things.
When a disease manifests in the body all the body wants is your attention.
To identify and understand something is not working in its favor and amends need to be made.
The minute you look it at this way, all the stress associated with a disease nullifies and you’re left with strength and will to take it on, heal and align with your best self!
Darta hai ?
Dar lagta hai, apni kahani mujhse puchta hai,
kayar.
Kiss se darta hai.
Bata, Bol apni kahani,
kya hai tere dil ke andar?

This is me through my trip, clicking pictures of myself and my parents very sweetly asking, ‘mein kheenchu?’ And me saying ‘nahi, mujhe aisehi kheenchna hai!’🙈
Got to say, I lucked out max at life 🧿✨
Conquering one insecurity at a time to become the best version of me🧿✨❤️

P.S I was still in the middle of finding my balance but this was the most appropriate to upload, because we’re all constantly in the middle of finding our balance in any given situation and the minute we finally find balance and pose, life has a new curveball ready❤️✨
BODYCON 🫣😰
I have spent 25+ years of my life feeling under confident, insecure in my skin and doubtful of every step I take.
But today I took a step closer towards challenging all my self limiting beliefs!
After trying and contemplating countless times I finally felt comfortable in my own skin to wear a body con dress.
It’s not like I don’t have insecurities anymore, the whole day I wore it the only thing on my mind was, I still have a pooch, I have a long way to go, ‘how is it looking from the front’ ‘how is it looking from the side’ ‘how is it looking from the back’ ‘what if people think my body is not the right shape for the dress and I come off as a weirdo wearing inappropriate clothes’ ??!!🥵🤯
Here’s the magic though, all of this co existed with, ‘F*** I can finally wear a bodycon dress’ ‘I’ve come such a long way’ ‘This looks so good’ ‘I’m going to work harder and be more disciplined’
And the key word in all this is ‘co-exist’ No one will ever be completely secure, we just have to be secure enough where we allow our insecurities to co-exist and not take over our entire being ❤️🧿
Happy Monday Lovlies😍

One of my most fun recipes ever!!!
Guess what??!!
We all include one or more than one of these items in our diet regularly.
Even if you think you’re eating healthy it might not be best suited for your body.
Limit intake of all the foods mentioned in the list and go big on Whole Foods I.e vegetables, fruits, grains, pulses etc
Stop questioning yourself and your capabilities and go get whatever it is you want!
