If you could adapt to one healthy habit this week - eat good, and feel happy about eating good. And I don’t mean stuff yourself with vegetables you don’t like and self-pity about how you’ve having juices and meals. I mean, you have to love love love what you put in your body. Like chocolates ! ⁣ ⁣ A lot of times when I’m in a group and I’ll order a scrumptious meal of chicken breast with some mushroom sauce and rice and somebody else orders a pizza or a pasta, they’d look at me like I’m punishing myself. But for me, ⁣ A) To be very scientific, they’re punishing their bodies with all that maida and fat 🙈⁣ B) I don’t quite care about what somebody is eating - good choices or bad, we’re all adults and we learn from both 😌⁣ ⁣ There’s no point of eating clean and following diets which makes you unhappy (one of the reasons that even though I’ve left sugar in coffee but I’ve never left chocolates or desserts ❤️). ⁣ ⁣ So eat well, but eat with a perspective that you’re doing it for good. And do it because you enjoy it. If it doesn’t make you happy, its a punishment. And healthy living is a lifestyle, not a 3 month diet 💆🏻‍♀️

Some splashes of sunset please ☺️

My mum gave me these pants a few months ago. In mid December, I had a friends party to go for which I decided to wear the same outfit paired with a leather jacket. The zip just came up after that mini struggle of sucking in my tummy, with my tummy plunging out, and the entire outfit looked disastrous. ⁣ ⁣ I kept these pants until now in my cupboard because I HAD TO fit into them somehow. ⁣ Exactly 5 months later, I wear them. This time, with a belt. ⁣ ⁣ My Monday motivation is usually my journey. I didn’t see results in 3 weeks or a month, but months and months. On most days, I don’t need ‘motivation’ to get out of bed because waking up and working out is a lifestyle now. ⁣ ⁣ But it’s changes like these, which keep me going. Major shoutout to @puneet.merucf who’s helped me through and all with my workouts and diet. In the end of the day, it’s about being better than yesterday every single day. Have a kickass week!

It’s hard to wake up two hours earlier than required and workout and have an entire work day ahead of you + plans post work, if any. It’s also hard right now as I come back from work and I’m working out in the evening instead, that leaves me an hour post work to rest and by the time I’m done with boxing at 9pm I’m too tired to read or do anything but sleep. It’s also hard to constantly eat healthy and explain your choices which are questioned every other day by those around you - “come on, it’s just icecream”, “it’s just one glass of wine on a weekday”, “it’s just fries!” (because leading a healthy life is not just my choice and important for me, it’s important for you too!). Admist of all of this, I wouldn’t want it any other way. Waking up before dawn on winters made me cherish my blanket on weekends. Learning something I was physically incapable of, is a sense of accomplishment. Every single day, the feeling of being healthier and fitter- makes up for every thing. And it’s not just me who preaches about it and does it, you should too. It’s not easy, but nothing awesome comes easy anyway right? ⭐️

From never touching Maggi to always and always eating Maggi during travelling - whether it’s in the shikara in Dal Lake, Srinagar; in Budapest when I’m craving for some spice in the comparatively bland food; in Spain when I was craving Indian food; or in Himachal, refuelling myself while trekking. There’s def something special about maggi and the environment you’re in , like this one next to the waterfall😌 Still not promoting it okay? Everything is forgiven only if you’re travelling or ill 🌸⭐️

This weeks pro tip : waking up and eating a fruit after you have a glass of water (or warm water with lemon or whatever it is that you drink) ⁣⁣ 🍓 It’s a great pre workout (for me that’s either an apple or banana)⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ 🍓 The health benefits are masssiveee⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ 🍓Having fruit high in calories and sucrose early in the day burns off the calories
