How women lost 25 kg without gym
In a recent post, Sakshi revealed how she shed those extra kilos without hitting the gym or following any strict diets. Instead, she relied on 10 simple and sustainable steps that helped her achieve her fitness goals effortlessly. Let’s take a look at it.
9 simple steps to lose weight sustainably
1. Home workouts: I focused on 40 to 50 minutes of strength or weight training six days a week.
2. Homemade food: I stuck to homemade meals because I find dieting unsustainable. However, I ensured my meals were rich in protein and fibre.
3. Avoid sugar, oily and processed foods: I avoided these as they are high in calories and addictive, which can hinder results.
4. Daily steps: I made it a habit to complete 10,000 steps daily to stay active. Even during phone calls, I would walk to keep moving.
5. Hydration: Water plays a crucial role, so I made sure to stay hydrated throughout the day.
6. Consistency: Consistency is key. If you’re not consistent with your diet and workouts, you won’t see results, no matter how hard you work for a day or two.
7. Portion control: Overeating can undo your efforts. Paying attention to portion control is essential for achieving your weight loss goals.
8. Avoid comparisons: Don’t compare your journey to someone else’s. Every individual is different, and progress varies from person to person.
9. Be patient: Don’t expect rapid results. For instance, aiming to lose 7 kg in one month is not a sustainable or healthy approach to weight loss.
