A MONTH INTO THE GYM

One thing that I decided to accomplish this year was to get back in shape and lose all the extra kilos that I put on in the last three years. In no way does it mean that I am ashamed of my current body shape, it's just that I feel really unhealthy and inactive! But the good news is that it is about to change because I have been feeling so confident since the past month.

Disclaimer: I am in no way an expert in fitness and neither do I mean to consult someone on the topic. This is purely to share my experiences about my weight loss journey and getting myself back on track. 

So what did I do in the first month in the gym?

I began with doing about 40 minutes of cardio and 20 mins of floor exercises on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. And on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays I would do weight training. I also started my month with a lot of green juice but I kind of got bored of it on around the 18th. But then I started mixing things up every morning and I kind of like my breakfast habits right now. So I try to eat cereals for a couple of days, then I eat fruits on another couple of days and on the rest of the days I generally have a green smoothie. I think I am going to stick to it for a while now!

Next thing I changed was my intake of water. I never believed in the fact that having 8 glasses of water would really help me. And so I try to drink a mixture of different liquids with regular water like coconut water, fresh juices and similar stuff.

I can see a lot has changed when it comes to my skin and my hair but physically I would still wait till the end of this month to put up a before and after picture. 

So for the month for July, I would be taking up the Squat Challenge and hope that I would stick to it till the end of the month.
