Read More »Being overweight may seem fine, but only till it doesn't begin to affect your confidence. Always an overweight child who thought her weight loss was impossible, not being able to get a job because of low self-esteem hurt Pankhuri like nothing else. She had been a very strong-willed girl always but when her relatives would also refer to her through her appearance, she knew she had to change things for the better. She decided to lose weight and lost 25 kilos in just 7 months! Here’s her weight loss journey from fat to fit.Pankhuri SaxenaMicrobiologist2580 kilos25 kilos7 monthsI have always been an overweight child. I spent all my growing years being obese, a laughing stock at school. My father often motivated me to lose weight and lured me with incentives. But I had this misconception that I couldn’t lose weight as it seemed impossible. However, after my college, I didn't get a good job because I lacked confidence. Then, the change happened and it was something I started on my own. I started to run for 45 minutes, every day.3-4 almonds, upma/poha and one glass of milk without sugar2 chapatis with boiled dal, one bowl of vegetable saladBoiled dal with one chapati, paneer or tofu and green saladRice/ Noodles/ Pasta/ PizzaI work out daily and follow a disciplined regime that consists of yoga, weight training and cardio. Drinking enough water and staying hydrated is also very important to keep up the energy levels and help flush toxins out of your system.Carrot soup, spinach and cabbage salad and Greek yoghurtMy fitness journey will be a life long journey. Fitness is not about being better than someone else. It's about being better than you used to be. For me, getting enough sleep, drinking lots of water, working out daily, having a healthy diet and staying away from junk food as much as possible are musts. Doing all these things really helps.I didn't struggle to find motivation to workout. I genuinely liked working out - I liked how it made me feel, I liked that it was good for me. The reality is that there is no finish line in weight loss, because in maintenance, the journey continues.Self-monitoring is crucial to not lose focus as it makes me aware of my progress and encourages me in weight loss maintenance.It felt like I was living under a microscope, surrounded by thin people who were judging everything, from the food on my plate to my clothing choices.10 years from now, I want to remain physically active as I am now, to keep myself fit and healthy and also motivate others towards fitness.Before starting my weight loss journey, I was very much addicted to fast food and was lazy too. But for weight loss, I made certain changes in my lifestyle, like, I started exercising daily, cut back on junk food, increased the amount of fresh fruits and vegetables in my daily diet.I was tired of being ignorant and being described by nothing more than my physical appearance. I wasn't bothered when strangers would refer to me as "the fat girl", but when my friends and family would refer to me that way too, it was upsetting.Losing weight has actually made my life easier. I learned what's really "healthy" and "unhealthy" for me and the most important thing - don't treat your weight loss as a destination, learn to respect the fact that fitness is a life long journey.If you have a weight loss story that can inspire others, mail us at toi.health1@gmail.com

Hello, Thank you for the query. Will surely help you. Losing 20kgs in a month is not healthy. It can lead to alot of vitamin and mineral deficiencies and muscle mass loss as well. You must go for a more holistic approach when it comes to weight loss as it will be more sustainable and you will not gain your weight back. With some healthy lifestyle changes and proper balanced diet, you can focus on weight loss. Some tips: - Consume good amount of fruits and vegetables in your diet. - Include good amount of complex carbohydrates, protein and healthy fats in your diet - Avoid consumption of added sugar which is usually present in packaged and processed foods and junk food. - Don't skip any meals and consume small and frequent meals throughout the day and maintain portion sizes. - Drink plenty of water to keep yourself hydrated. -Get yourself proper rest and sleep. Minimize stress levels. Hope this information helps. For a customised diet plan through an online or an in-person consultation, you can reach out to me via practo or on www.vasundhara.me . Thanks
