								<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1 style="text-align: center;"><span style="text-decoration: underline; color: #333399;"><b>Rediscover yourself</b></span></h1>
<p>Hello every one, here&#8217;s the second post of the blog series &#8211; <em><strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">The ‘Un’-common Tales</span></strong></em> of common people. This post is shared by a very good friend of mine, <strong>Megha Arora. </strong>I truly appreciate her for being real and talk about her struggles. She has shared her secret of being a happy mother. And I am sure her tips to &#8216;rediscover yourself after having a baby&#8217; will help a lot of new mothers out there.</p>
<p>You may also read &#8211; <a href="http://growingwithnemit.com/being-happy-or-successful/">Being happy or successful, what would you choose?</a></p>
<p>Now, a little something about this blog series. I strongly believe that each one of us has a ‘<strong>voice’</strong> that can make an impact, the ‘<strong>power’</strong> to inspire others and the ‘<strong>experience’</strong> that could help someone else. But not everyone has a platform to reach out to others and share their experiences with them. Hence, this series, where you will get to read the <strong>&#8216;Un&#8217;- common </strong><strong>tales of common people</strong> who have the power to inspire and bring the change. This series is a <strong>small token of thanks</strong> to those people who have always supported me in my journey.</p>

<h2 style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>How to rediscover yourself after having a baby?</strong></span></h2>
<p>Having a baby through c-section was not easy for me. I was taking prenatal yoga sessions to prepare myself mentally and physically for the delivery. But I was shocked to know that it will be a cesarean delivery. I was 26 years old when I had my son. I was a happy, nervous, and physically weak mom. As I belong to a joint family, I had a lot of pressure as a daughter in law, wife, and most importantly, as a mother.</p>

<p>Those 45 days were the toughest days of my life as I was going through a lot of physical changes. I was suffering from backache, acidity, anxiety, sleepless nights, and mood swings. And, I started missing my old carefree life. But these four things helped me to rediscover myself.</p>
<h2><span style="color: #333399;"><strong>4 Ways to Rediscover Yourself after having a Baby</strong></span></h2>
<h3 style="text-align: center;"><strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">1 &#8211; Start giving time to yourself</span></strong></h3>
<div id="attachment_5264" style="width: 210px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-5264" class="wp-image-5264" src="http://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Start-giving-time-to-yourseld.jpg" alt="Megha has shared her secret of being a happy mother.

<p>Taking care of kids, 24/7 is not an easy job for any mother. There was that feeling of getting trapped inside a black hole; I was losing myself. But I had to do something for my well being. So, I started pampering myself with DIY masks, weekly massages, visiting the salon, cooking healthy meals to recover what was lost.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: center;"><strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">2 &#8211; Workout and Exercise to rediscover yourself</span></strong></h3>
<div id="attachment_5265" style="width: 210px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-5265" class="wp-image-5265" src="http://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Workout-exercise.jpg" alt="Megha has shared her secret of being a happy mother. Her tips to 'rediscover yourself after having a baby' will help a lot of new mothers out there." width="200" height="525" /><p id="caption-attachment-5265" class="wp-caption-text">Picture by Megha Arora</p></div>
<p>I started feeling conscious about my body, belly pouch, stretch marks, and sagging breasts. It seemed impossible to get back to my pre-pregnancy body. So, I decided to hit the gym, and I started with light workout and yoga sessions. I completely cut out the sugar from my diet and started eating more protein and Vitamin B complex. Soon my efforts started showing results that motivated me further to take care of myself.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>3 &#8211; Spend time with your spouse</strong></span></h3>
<div id="attachment_5266" style="width: 261px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-5266" class="wp-image-5266" src="http://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Spend-time-with-your-spouse.jpg" alt="Megha has shared her secret of being a happy mother." width="251" height="358" srcset="https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Spend-time-with-your-spouse-200x285.jpg 200w, https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Spend-time-with-your-spouse.jpg 359w" sizes="(max-width: 251px) 100vw, 251px" /><p id="caption-attachment-5266" class="wp-caption-text">Picture by Megha Arora</p></div>
<p>It was the time when the long talks at night with my husband would turn into arguments and fights. I don&#8217;t know the exact reason, but maybe it was the frustration due to change in routine or sleepless nights. And that&#8217;s when my husband and I decided to give quality time to each other and our baby. Also, giving dad-son exclusive time helped my husband to connect better with the baby.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: center;"><strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">4 &#8211; Plan a weekly outing with family and spend time with friends</span></strong></h3>
<div id="attachment_5267" style="width: 259px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-5267" class="wp-image-5267" src="http://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/outing-with-friends.jpg" alt="Megha has shared her secret of being a happy mother." width="249" height="331" srcset="https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/outing-with-friends-200x266.jpg 200w, https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/outing-with-friends.jpg 385w" sizes="(max-width: 249px) 100vw, 249px" /><p id="caption-attachment-5267" class="wp-caption-text">Picture by Megha Arora</p></div>
<p>We used to plan an outing every Wednesday either for a movie, picnic, or dinner. Getting dressed up and putting on makeup made me feel alive. We also organized monthly get together with friends, spending time with them was like insurance towards the best emotional and mental health.</p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>There is something remarkable about each one of us. Seize the opportunity to look within and rediscover yourself. &#8211; Dr. Roopleen</strong></p>
</blockquote>
<p>Now, my son is 5 years old. I don&#8217;t know if I am a good mother or a good wife, but I always try my best to keep my family happy by giving them my time. But I also keep in mind that my life is equally important, and that&#8217;s how &#8216;me time&#8217; keeps me happy.</p>

								<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1 style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #333399;"><strong>Gifts for Health-Conscious Couples</strong></span></h1>
<p>Hey guys, hope you all had a lovely time with your Valentine. A small announcement, today is my <strong>4th marriage anniversary, </strong>Yay! So, you guys can leave all your love &amp; wishes in the comments below. You can even DM me, I won&#8217;t mind. Jokes apart, now that I count myself in fitness freaks, I thought of writing this post dedicated to <span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>health-conscious couples</strong></span> &amp; people whose partners are <strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">fitness enthusiasts</span></strong>.</p>
<p>In this post, I will be sharing some<span style="color: #333333;"> <a href="http://growingwithnemit.com/baby-shower-gift-ideas/">gift ideas</a> around <a href="http://growingwithnemit.com/category/mothers-health-and-fitness/">health and fitness</a></span> (yes, gifts are on my mind!!!). So, if your anniversary or your partner&#8217;s birthday is around the corner, and you have no idea what to buy for your health-conscious partner, this post may save you from all the stress.</p>
<blockquote>
<h3 style="text-align: center;"><strong><span style="color: #333399;">Gifts are always special. And your day becomes even more special if the gifts are useful and thoughtfully curated.</span></strong></h3>
</blockquote>
<p>A few days ago, I was thinking if I had to get a <span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>gift for myself</strong></span> what would I choose? Flowers, chocolates or jewelry are not my kinds of gift. I like things which are useful for me &amp; also <span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>go well with my personality</strong></span>.</p>
<p>You guys are already aware that I have recently turned very health-conscious. My day is made if I get up early &amp; do my <a href="http://growingwithnemit.com/hectic-workout-sessions-september-challenge/"><span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>morning workout</strong></span></a>. I feel so happy &amp; satisfied when I indulge in mindful eating. Adopting a healthy lifestyle &amp; getting fit is my main goal for this year.</p>
<p>Hence, for obvious reasons, I would like to get something which will aid me in my <strong><a href="http://growingwithnemit.com/moms-health-fitness-journey/">fitness journey</a></strong>. That gift will not only be useful for me but will be valued since it will be <span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>helpful in achieving my ultimate fitness goal</strong></span>.</p>
<p>The same goes for you as well. Instead of <a href="http://growingwithnemit.com/gift-toddler-christmas-activity-box/">gifting</a> the usual cheesy stuff, why not gift something which relates to your partner&#8217;s current requirements.</p>
<h2><strong><span style="color: #333399;">I am listing down 5 Gifts which can be a great buy for your health-conscious partner. These gifts top my wishlist too.</span></strong></h2>
<div id="attachment_3276" style="width: 459px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-3276" class=" wp-image-3276" src="http://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Gift-ideas-for-health-consciois-partner-Pin.jpg" alt="Gift ideas for health conscious partner" width="449" height="674" srcset="https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Gift-ideas-for-health-consciois-partner-Pin-200x300.jpg 200w, https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Gift-ideas-for-health-consciois-partner-Pin-400x600.jpg 400w, https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Gift-ideas-for-health-consciois-partner-Pin-600x900.jpg 600w, https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Gift-ideas-for-health-consciois-partner-Pin.jpg 735w" sizes="(max-width: 449px) 100vw, 449px" /><p id="caption-attachment-3276" class="wp-caption-text">PIN IT!</p></div>
<h3 style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>1- InstaCuppa&#8217;s Vacuum Insulated Thermos Green Tea Detox Bottle</strong></span></h3>
<p>If your partner is health conscious, then I am sure they love drinking green tea. I know this because even I started drinking green tea for detox from day 1 of my fitness journey. This is the easiest change one can bring into their lifestyle. And we all know the numerous health <strong><span style="color: #333399;">benefits of drinking green tea.</span></strong></p>
<div id="attachment_3271" style="width: 411px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-3271" class=" wp-image-3271" src="http://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Instacuppa-health-conscious-gift-ideas.jpg" alt="Instacuppa- health conscious gift ideas" width="401" height="414" srcset="https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Instacuppa-health-conscious-gift-ideas-200x207.jpg 200w, https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Instacuppa-health-conscious-gift-ideas-400x413.jpg 400w, https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Instacuppa-health-conscious-gift-ideas.jpg 547w" sizes="(max-width: 401px) 100vw, 401px" /><p id="caption-attachment-3271" class="wp-caption-text">Source &#8211; <a href="https://amzn.to/2RCmC8o" rel="nofollow">Amazon</a></p></div>
<p>So, for all the health conscious people or the green tea lovers, this <a href="https://instacuppastore.com/collections/instacuppa-detox-water-bottles/products/instacuppa-thermos-fruit-infuser-water-bottle-1-litre-with-full-length-stainless-steel-infuser">Green Tea Detox Bottle</a> by InstaCuppa would be a perfect gift. The best part is it is insulated &amp; can be used as a fruit, tea, as well as coffee infuser.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: center;"><strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">2- Fitness Band or SmartWatch</span></strong></h3>
<p>Now, this is something which is a must for health-conscious people. A fitness tracker or a cool smartwatch comes with a <span style="color: #333399;"><strong>range of features</strong></span> which suit everyone&#8217;s pocket. It not only <span style="color: #333399;"><strong>keeps you motivated to be active</strong></span> but also, <span style="color: #333399;"><strong>keeps a track of your activities</strong></span>.</p>
<div id="attachment_3250" style="width: 413px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-3250" class="wp-image-3250" src="http://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Valentines-Day-gift-smartwatch.jpg" alt="Valentine's Day gift - smartwatch" width="403" height="263" srcset="https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Valentines-Day-gift-smartwatch-200x131.jpg 200w, https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Valentines-Day-gift-smartwatch-400x261.jpg 400w, https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Valentines-Day-gift-smartwatch-600x392.jpg 600w, https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Valentines-Day-gift-smartwatch.jpg 686w" sizes="(max-width: 403px) 100vw, 403px" /><p id="caption-attachment-3250" class="wp-caption-text">Source &#8211; Apple</p></div>
<p>I have heard some very good reviews about Fitbit Charge 3. And, in case your partner owns an Apple iPhone, then an Apple smartwatch is a great option for gifting.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>3- Wireless Earphones</strong></span></h3>
<p>I love listening to music while doing my walks and cardio. Music in my ears <span style="color: #333399;"><strong>helps me keep focused</strong></span>. And am sure, most of the people who like working out alone love music. So, why not gift your fitness freak partner a cool pair of wireless earphones. Did you know music can prove to be a great <span style="color: #333399;"><strong>workout partner</strong></span> as well?</p>

								<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1 style="text-align: center;"><strong><span style="color: #333399;">September Weightloss Challenge</span></strong></h1>
<p style="text-align: center;">I know I know, I am very late to post this, <strong><em>September is already past</em></strong> and we are almost nearing mid of October. But, its never too late to share the good things with people whom we care about.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">As many of you know the last few days of September were quite busy as I happened to take part in <span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>9 days of Blogathon</strong></span> which was my first ever Blog writing and Insta micro-blogging challenge. I did not anticipate the Blogathon to be that much tedious and tiring.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">But the name says it all, Blogathon is <strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">Blogging Marathon</span></strong> and these are supposed to be <strong><em>hectic as well as challenging</em></strong>.</p>
<p>Well, I am happy and a little bit sad too, happy because I took the <span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>Weight Loss Challenge</strong></span>, and sad as I was <em><strong>not able to complete it as planned</strong></em>. I updated about my workout journey till the 2nd week, (&gt;&gt; <em><strong><a href="http://growingwithnemit.com/story-behind-the-weight-september-challenge/">Click here</a></strong></em> &lt;&lt; to read about it), but I almost ditched the last 2 weeks, although not completely but there was no fixed schedule that I followed neither was there any Cardio that I did.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/5.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-931" src="http://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/5.jpg" alt="" width="400" height="400" srcset="https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/5-66x66.jpg 66w, https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/5-150x150.jpg 150w, https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/5-200x200.jpg 200w, https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/5-300x300.jpg 300w, https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/5.jpg 400w" sizes="(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px" /></a></p>
<blockquote>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><strong>I am writing this post to share the final snippets of my September journey, people behind it&#8217;s success and the much awaited results.</strong></h2>
</blockquote>
<p>But, before sharing anything else, I want to let everyone know that I am <span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>feeling much healthier</strong></span> and <span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>my stamina has greatly improved</strong></span> which is like a bonus of losing weight. So, the <span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>whole credit of the month goes to my mom and my hubby</strong></span> for being so supportive and understanding at every stage.</p>
<p>They are the ones who motivated me each day to keep going and they are the ones who encouraged me with all the love and good vibes which I needed every day.</p>
<p>As you know, I stayed at my mom&#8217;s house for the whole month of September and that means a lot more work for her and no rest at all in return. She took the complete responsibility of taking care of Nemit from making him feed healthy nutritious homemade food to playing with him and keeping him engaged in so many educational activities. I can never do this at her age, her energy level is commendable. Thanks, Mumma.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/10.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-946" src="http://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/10.jpg" alt="" width="400" height="400" srcset="https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/10-66x66.jpg 66w, https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/10-150x150.jpg 150w, https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/10-200x200.jpg 200w, https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/10-300x300.jpg 300w, https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/10.jpg 400w" sizes="(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px" /></a></p>
<p>And my hubby, he is a real hero and a sweetheart, no I am not saying this just like that. I really mean it. Sumit never stays away from us, if I come to mom&#8217;s house he accompanies us and stays with us, even if that requires him to travel 2 hours to reach his office. But this time I wanted him to stay at home with Caesar and after much discussion, he agreed. We took this pic on a Friday when he came directly from his office to the Sports complex to pick me up. It was a pleasant surprise. Thanks, hubby.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/6.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-932" src="http://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/6.jpg" alt="" width="400" height="400" srcset="https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/6-66x66.jpg 66w, https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/6-150x150.jpg 150w, https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/6-200x200.jpg 200w, https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/6-300x300.jpg 300w, https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/6.jpg 400w" sizes="(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px" /></a></p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><strong>Alright now coming back to the weight loss challenge, let me first introduce you all to the lady behind <span style="color: #ff6600;">The Tabata.</span> <em>(<span style="color: #333399;">What? Don&#8217;t you know what is TABATA? Oh My God, then you are missing on everything. </span></em><em><span style="color: #333399;">&gt;&gt;</span></em><em><span style="color: #333399;"> <a href="http://growingwithnemit.com/hectic-workout-sessions-september-challenge/">Click here</a> &lt;&lt; to get enlightened</span></em>).</strong></h2>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>My aerobics trainer &#8216;<span style="color: #ff6600;">Rekha Sharma</span>&#8216; is the person who introduced me to the Tabata workout for the very first time and included this in our daily aerobic sessions, which I consider to be the main reason for my weight loss.</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/1-1.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-951" src="http://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/1-1.jpg" alt="" width="400" height="400" srcset="https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/1-1-66x66.jpg 66w, https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/1-1-150x150.jpg 150w, https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/1-1-200x200.jpg 200w, https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/1-1-300x300.jpg 300w, https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/1-1.jpg 400w" sizes="(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px" /></a></p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><em><strong>She is a true inspiration to many women like me as she herself has a story to tell about her weight loss journey.</strong></em></h2>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>Can you believe she is a MOM and has 2 teenager kids. If you will meet her you will say she has the energy level of a teenager. She&#8217;s been gyming since 10 years now. What a transformation!</strong></span></p>
</blockquote>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/2-1.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-929" src="http://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/2-1.jpg" alt="" width="400" height="400" srcset="https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/2-1-66x66.jpg 66w, https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/2-1-150x150.jpg 150w, https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/2-1-200x200.jpg 200w, https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/2-1-300x300.jpg 300w, https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/2-1.jpg 400w" sizes="(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px" /></a></p>
<h3><strong>Her mantra for weight loss is &#8211;</strong></h3>
<ul>
<li>Fitness &#8211; Follow a workout routine</li>
<li>Lifestyle &#8211; Bring in a few lifestyle changes</li>
<li>Passion &#8211; Make workout your passion</li>
</ul>
<p>She says she has nothing special about her but that&#8217;s all about being modest. Isn&#8217;t it? She is a personal trainer and a passionate dancer. I can bet you will drool over her brilliant dance moves. You can check out her Insta handle here <strong>&gt;&gt;</strong> <a href="https://www.instagram.com/rekha15/"><em><strong>Click </strong></em></a><em><strong>&lt;&lt;</strong></em></p>
<h1 style="text-align: center;"><strong>The BIG REVEAL</strong></h1>
<p>You all must be thinking I am talking about everything and everyone but the results. Yes, the<span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong> result of Weight loss September challenge</strong></span>. Oh and yes the <span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>result of Blogathon</strong></span> too!</p>
<p>I took the September challenge to lose<strong> 3 Kgs weight in 30 days</strong> but I got the opportunity to participate in <strong>Navratri Blogathon</strong> which I didn&#8217;t want to miss, so I had to leave my workout mid-way. But I was not sad as it was a win-win for me, <span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>20 days of Workout and 9 days of Blogathon. </strong><span style="color: #000000;">(2-in-1 fun)</span></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><strong>And the Results of September Challenge are</strong> &#8211;</p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="text-align: center;">20 days of Workout &#8211; I lost 2 kgs + 2 inches (followed mindful eating with regular workout which included swimming and aerobics)</span></p>
</blockquote>

<p>Hello Friends, hope you all are finding my posts good to read and I am sure some of you can relate to them too. The series I am doing ‘September Challenge-My Weight Loss Journey’ is very close to my heart, the efforts I am putting in my workout sessions are genuine and I really really want to leave my old self and see myself as a Happy, Healthy and Fit mommy at the end of this month.</p>
<p>I know the fact that losing weight is not easy especially when you are a mom having a baby who needs your attention 24 hours 7 days a week, when you are a woman and have to deal with quirky hormonal issues every now and then and above all when you feel like a hungry lioness all the time even after getting all your meals on time.</p>
<p>This is getting difficult and more challenging as the second week of my journey has ended; I want to take a moment rather I would take this whole post to reflect on what is going on behind the scenes of this journey and what else I am doing to make it work. Hope to get lots of positive vibes and motivational comments to pump up my weight loss journey.</p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><em><strong><span style="color: #800080;">We have this beautiful Floral Yoga mat from <span style="text-decoration: underline;">Strauss</span>, you can <a href="http://strausssport.com/product/strauss-yoga-mat-6mm-floral/">check it here</a> for more details!</span></strong></em></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>To start with, I want to share my routine and what changes I have made in my diet to complement my work out regime.</p>
<p><strong><em>Routine</em></strong></p>
<ul>
<li>My work-out week starts from Tuesday, yes because Sports Complex stay closed on Sundays and Mondays.</li>
<li>Tues/Wed/Fri/Sat &#8211; Morning 45 mins <span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong><em>swimming session</em></strong></span>.</li>
<li>Tues/Wed/Thurs/Fri – Evening 60 mins <span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong><em>Aerobics class</em></strong></span>.</li>
<li>Rest of the days I stick to 15-45 mins of <span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong><em>Walking</em></strong></span>. These days are my rejuvenation days and I prepare my body and mind for the next week.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong><em>Diet</em></strong></p>
<p>I am <span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong><em>not dieting</em></strong></span>; I can’t as I said earlier I feel hunger pangs all the time and my toddler still breastfeeds.</p>
<ul>
<li><span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong><em>Before and after work-out meals</em></strong></span> play a crucial role, pre-workout snack is important to fuel the muscles and provide enough energy to stay on your toes through the session. What snack to choose and the portion size depend on the intensity of the workout. Similarly, post-workout recovery snack is as important to replenish the lost carbohydrate stores of our body and proteins for muscle recovery.</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<ul>
<li><span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong><em>Swimming </em></strong></span>is considered a light low impact workout; hence I stick to a banana only, 30 mins prior to my session. After a 45 min swimming session, I take a glass of skimmed milk without sugar, and after an hour indulge in light breakfast.</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<ul>
<li><span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong><em>Aerobics </em></strong></span>is more intense cardio; I take handful of mix nuts and a serving of any fruit 30 mins prior to session. After a high intensity workout one should take carbohydrates and proteins within 30 mins after finishing the session. I take a glass of milk shake with 3-4 <strong>Threptin biscuits.</strong></li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="http://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/Sep-C10.png"><img class="size-full wp-image-645 aligncenter" src="http://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/Sep-C10.png" alt="" width="483" height="208" srcset="https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/Sep-C10-200x86.png 200w, https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/Sep-C10-300x129.png 300w, https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/Sep-C10-400x172.png 400w, https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/Sep-C10.png 483w" sizes="(max-width: 483px) 100vw, 483px" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #800080;"><em><strong>To know more about about these high calorie protein supplement, <a href="http://threptin.com/?p_id=lite">Click Here</a>!</strong></em></span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<ul>
<li>I am going really light with my breakfast and dinner but <span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>take a good lunch</strong></span> which mostly includes 1 chapatti, 1 small bowl of rice, 1 small bowl of dal, 1 serving of vegetable, salad and yogurt.</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<ul>
<li>Keeping your body <span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong><em>hydrated </em></strong></span>is equally important to bring the best out of your workout. Don’t eat snack and drink water simultaneously as that can result in some nasty enzymes develop in your stomach and make your body feel bloated or can result in acidity. Always have water at least 15-20 mins after your pre and post workout snacks.</li>
</ul>
<p>That’s the routine and diet I am following. Now that I have already shared some facts and tips about walking and swimming in my previous post &#8211;<em> <strong><a href="http://growingwithnemit.com/story-behind-the-weight-september-challenge/#comments">Story behind the weight</a></strong>,</em> it’s time to know more about Aerobics- my hectic evening workout sessions.</p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;"><em><strong>Aerobics </strong></em></span></p>
<ul>
<li>Any activity which is done more than a few minutes while heart, lungs and muscles work harder and lots of sweating is there, is known as &#8216;<span style="color: #ff6600;"><em>Aerobic exercise</em></span>&#8216;, also known as &#8216;<em><span style="color: #ff6600;">Cardio</span></em>&#8216;.</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<ul>
<li>Aerobic exercise can help prevent or reduce the chance of developing some cancers, diabetes, depression, cardiovascular disease, and osteoporosis.</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<ul>
<li>An aerobic exercise plan should be simple, practical, and realistic. Specific equipment (such as cardio machines) may be used but is not necessary for successful aerobic exercise.</li>
</ul>
<p>Below is the snapshot I took from my trainer&#8217;s diary, the day when I almost fainted from the exhaustion of 5-minute high intensity fat burning &#8216;<span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>Tabata Workout</strong></span>&#8216;.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="http://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/Sep-C6-Copy.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-634 aligncenter" src="http://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/Sep-C6-Copy.jpg" alt="" width="450" height="300" srcset="https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/Sep-C6-Copy-200x133.jpg 200w, https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/Sep-C6-Copy-300x200.jpg 300w, https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/Sep-C6-Copy-400x267.jpg 400w, https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/Sep-C6-Copy.jpg 450w" sizes="(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px" /></a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Let me share some tiring facts about <span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training)- <span style="color: #000000;">Tabata Workout-</span></strong></span></p>
<ul>
<li>This is the <span style="color: #ff6600;"><em>hardest exercise</em></span> to choose where one can experience symptoms like passing out after being repeatedly punched by someone, yes that&#8217;s what I felt during a 15-minute session.</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<ul>
<li>&#8216;<span style="color: #ff6600;"><em>But that&#8217;s worth it</em></span>&#8216;- as exclaimed by my trainer. The results you can get from 5-minute of Tabata are equivalent to an hour of running.</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<ul>
<li>The trick is to choose 5 different cardio activities and go as hard as you can, one activity for 50 secs and then rest for 10 secs, then second activity for 50 secs and rest for 10 secs, continue same with all the 5 activities.</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<ul>
<li>Beginners can start with 5-minutes of tabata twice a week, but as my trainer is quite strict and know that we have stubborn fat and during a 5-min workout we will work for only 2-3 min and will spend rest of the time pulling ourselves up, she started with a 15-min workout.</li>
</ul>
<p>So, the 15-min workout had 3 sessions of 5-min each, having different set of exercises.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">Session-1 </span></strong><span style="color: #000000;">(5 exercises to be done for 50 secs each with 10 secs break in between)</span></p>
<ol>
<li>50 secs- Jumping Jacks &#8211;&gt; 10 sec rest</li>
<li>50 secs- Jumping Squats &#8211;&gt; 10 sec rest</li>
<li>50 secs- Plank &#8211;&gt; 10 sec rest</li>
<li>50 secs- High knees &#8211;&gt; 10 sec rest</li>
<li>50 secs- Wall sit &#8211;&gt;10 sec rest</li>
</ol>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Now let me share the truth also, I was almost dead in the last session and couldn&#8217;t stand even for 2 mins. So, I will say start with only 1 session of 5-minutes twice a week and then 2 sessions of 5-minutes twice in the next week and increase it so on and as per your capability. BUT&#8230;.</p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: center;">Always Listen to your Body, The Body never Lies.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Stop and take rest if you feel like dying&#8230;I mean don&#8217;t over-exert yourself at any point of time, push your body to the limits you can handle.</p>

								<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1 style="text-align: center;"><strong><span style="color: #333399;">Story Behind the Weight</span></strong></h1>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">The challenge I am talking about is not the one I am facing after pregnancy but it’s a long-lost challenge which I should have kept working on but I have many reasons to counter how I was not able to keep a track of my weight gain.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">I was always on the heavier side; <strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">65 kg was my ideal weight</span></strong> throughout my school and college days. When I got the job and started working I gained about 3-5 kg which would keep fluctuating between 65-70 kg for 3-4 years. There was a time when I gained around 8 Kg in 6 months as my job required me to work 9-10 hours sitting at my desk and then I had to travel for 2 hours daily to reach the office, it was back in 2014. I left my job to take control of my life and lost those extra 8 kgs but that&#8217;s a different story for to be told some other time.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">When I got married, I somehow gained 5 kg more, so once my pregnancy was detected I was at 75 kg.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">And guess how much I gained during my 9 months, the horrible 15 kg.  There was not a single day during those 9 months when I thought of eating sensibly and hence the result, 90 kg, and a cute little one!</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">But thanks to <strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">exclusive breastfeeding for 6 months</span></strong> and still going well at 19 months, I <span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>lost 10 kg without any workout</strong></span>. </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Now <strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">presently am at 83 kg</span></strong>, I gained 3 kg in last 3 months as I am spending a lot of my time sitting and working on my blog. But it’s never too late to realize what is going wrong with our bodies both inside and outside.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">I was getting more and more lethargic, I feel like eating all the time and my body has started aching when I wake up in the morning. After bearing all those pregnancy and delivery pains, now I am not able to deal with these daily pains.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">There is one more factor which contributes to my excess weight and that&#8217;s <span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>Hypothyroidism</strong></span> and <span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>PCOD</strong></span>.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">So, keeping all the things in mind, I have set a <span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>goal of reducing 3 Kg</strong></span> in this month. I know this month is going to be full of challenges and struggles and to overcome that I am planning weekly what I want to achieve.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Week 1 is over, I started on <strong><span style="color: #ff6600;">Monday (Sep 4)</span></strong> with an hour of walk to give a kick start to my journey. That early morning walk was tiresome but my mind was feeling refreshed and it gave me a push to jump full swing into the workout routine from next day.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>Walking- Day 1</strong></span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">If you are someone who doesn&#8217;t want to complicate your workout then just stick to brisk walking for an hour daily, it is one of the easiest ways towards a healthy lifestyle and if you are able to maintain a walking routine then weight loss is also possible.</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Now to derive benefits from your regular walk you have to make a few changes in your walking style, keep the stomach in and shoulder and back straight and look at the front, not the ground. You should be aware of your body movements as well as breathing.</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">3 important points for any workout,</span> <span style="color: #ff6600;">Warm-up, Cool down <span style="color: #000000;">and</span> Stretching<span style="color: #000000;">. Don&#8217;t start with brisk walk directly, rather start with 10 mins of regular walk to warm up your muscles and make your body ready for the brisk walk. Once you are near to complete the walk, slow down again for 5-10 mins which will cool down your body and then stretch your muscles.</span></span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Keep a track of the steps you walk, or how many KM you cover daily. You will be surprised to see the change in these figures almost daily. You can use Google Fit, an app to track your daily steps and activities.</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">If you missed a day then try to cover it up in next day or divide the time over the next few days or you can increase the frequency to cover up the lost 1 hour.</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">This is also one of the best ways you can workout keeping your little one by your side. Just put your baby in the stroller or wear your baby in the sling and start walking.</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Now that I am not a very big liker of walking and as it gets boring for me, and as mentioned in my earlier post, I have joined the Sports Complex for my weight loss journey and the first day I started with Swimming as that is my favorite sport of all and enjoy doing the most.</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>Swimming-  Day 2</strong></span></p>
<ul>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">This is my personal favorite as a workout sport. Swimming is known as a low-impact activity with many physical and mental health benefits.</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">It is beneficial as with each stroke upper and lower body gets worked, it also works on the core muscles which become loose during pregnancy.</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">The best thing about swimming is it helps in reducing weight, also strengthen the muscle and tone the body, you can swim freestyle and get the overall results.</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">I started with 20 mins of easy strokes whichever I knew and at the end of the week, I am doing 40 mins of freestyle strokes with 5 mins of the total break in between.</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Swimming is also a good choice if you experience joint pains as it is quite light on joints but at the same time give you the benefits of Cardio as well as Strength training.</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Always start slow and don&#8217;t over exert your body even if you think swimming is an easy sport.</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">One of the best benefits is it helps in reducing stress, yes just imagine the feeling of floating in the cool water, definitely, swimming has its own mood-boosting benefits.</span></li>
<li><span style="color: #000000;">Lastly, with swimming chances of getting injuries is quite low as the water supports the whole body weight.</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Walking and Swimming that&#8217;s how I started my 1st week of weight loss journey. These 2 days were like a warm-up session for the next coming days which will involve more vigorous workout sessions. </span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Have you started your weight loss journey or taken up any challenge to lose those extra kilos? Share with me, need to hear lots of motivational stories to keep my spirits high.</span></p>

								<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1 style="text-align: center;"><strong><span style="color: #333399;">My Weight Loss Journey</span></strong></h1>
<p>I have been thinking a lot lately about <strong><em><span style="color: #ff6600;">being healthy</span></em></strong> and shedding some extra flab and <span style="color: #ff6600;"><em><strong>getting back into shape</strong></em></span>. ?Many new moms can relate to that thinking, dreaming to get back to their old self. So, I have decided to head back to my mom&#8217;s place for a month. And start my weight loss journey.</p>
<p>Well, I am the most laziest person when it comes to exercise or for that matter a 30 min walk daily. I feel maintaining a healthy weight is the toughest task for a foodie mom like me, yes I am a big one! I just can&#8217;t leave parathas or rice or ghee or junk specially on weekends. ?</p>
<p><span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong><em>Challenges I face to start a workout regime</em></strong></span>&#8211;</p>
<p>1- I can&#8217;t wake up early, Nemit is to be blamed here, he just don&#8217;t want to leave dudu, we are still struggling with night time weaning.</p>
<p>2- Even if I wake up early by 7 am, I behave like a zombie, my body aches, I keep bumping into Caesar or he keeps bumping into me, I don&#8217;t know, but it&#8217;s sure that I am never into my senses.</p>
<p>3- By 6 in the evening I get/feel dead tired don&#8217;t know how/why so no evening workouts or walks for me.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><a href="http://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/Sep-C1.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-596" src="http://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/Sep-C1.jpg" alt="" width="683" height="600" srcset="https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/Sep-C1-200x176.jpg 200w, https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/Sep-C1-300x264.jpg 300w, https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/Sep-C1-400x351.jpg 400w, https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/Sep-C1-600x527.jpg 600w, https://growingwithnemit.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/Sep-C1.jpg 683w" sizes="(max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px" /></a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Now you must be thinking what&#8217;s special at mom&#8217;s place, no I mean mom&#8217;s place is always special but how can that help me in getting healthier.</p>
<p>&#8211; Well, there&#8217;s a sports complex very near to mom&#8217;s place that I am thinking to join.</p>
<p>&#8211; Mom will keep me pestering &amp; reminding about the change I want to see in myself and why I have hijacked her place.</p>
<p>&#8211; Nemit will get the best company while I will sweat it out at the sports complex.</p>
<p>So basically this is going to be <span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong><em>my weight loss journey</em></strong></span>, if not weight loss then at least I want to gain some stamina and improve my eating habits in this month.</p>
<p>I will be updating about my journey often, so that I can get dose of motivation from all you awesome people around or may be if successful can inspire some too.</p>
