Pregnancy can be a life-altering journey and brings a host of changes in a woman's body. When 30-year-old Rakhi Meniya realised that she was rapidly putting on a lot of weight after giving birth to her little one, she decided to do something about it. With the support of her husband, she did the impossible and lost a whopping 14 kilos in a span of 2.5 months. Her story is an example that anything is possible if you remain committed to your goals.Name: Rakhi MeniyaAge: 30 yearsHeight: 5 feet 2 inch

Highest weight recorded: 74 kgs

Weight lost: 14 kgs

Duration it took me to lose weight: 2.5 months

The turning point: I had put on a lot of weight after my pregnancy and I wasnt able to work out or monitor my diet soon after that. Hence, within a year, my clothing size went from S to XL and I found it quite tough to digest this huge change. My confidence had also begun to waver due to all the unsolicited pieces of advice. However, my husband acted as my pillar of support and gently nudged me to start working out and take care of myself. That was the turning point in my life and I have never really looked back after that.

My breakfast: I keep my diet simple and fuss-free so that I can follow it on most days. For my breakfast, I choose anything from a bowl of oats, a portion of sprouts with strawberry or banana smoothie. I completely avoid cheat meals or cheat days.

My Lunch: 1 chapati, 1 bowl of vegetable curry or a portion of sprouts with buttermilk. Occasionally, I have a bowl of brown rice with dal.

My Dinner: I make sure to finish my dinner by 7 pm every day, without fail. I have boiled vegetables like broccoli, carrot, cucumber etc. Sometimes, I have one chapati with a bowl of dal or vegetable curry.

My Workout: My workout routine is fuss-free. I run for 3 kilometres in the morning for six days a week and do Tabata workout at home. Tabata workout is an excellent choice for working out at home, given the current circumstances where we cannot hit the gym.

Pre-workout meal: Any fruit of my choice, including apple, orange and kiwi

Post-workout meal: I have a glass of almond milk with a handful of nuts

Fitness secrets I unveiled: If you want to lose weight and get back in shape, it all boils down to consistency. It does not matter what workout routine you follow, you have to keep doing it to see results. I have realised that losing weight is not rocket science, you have to watch your diet and continue working out as per your body type.

How do I stay motivated? Undoubtedly, one of my biggest motivators has been my husband, who gave me new targets every week to ensure that I kept going. When I started seeing the results, I kept following the same schedule for my work out and dietary plan. Also, when I saw that I was able to fit into size S/M clothing again, it further motivated me to continue my journey.

How do you ensure you dont lose focus? In the beginning, it was really tough to make up your mind to follow a strict schedule and make rapid lifestyle changes. However, after I maintained my routine for the first 15 days, I slowly became focused. Whenever I felt that I was straying from goals, I would watch my old photographs to motivate myself to keep going. It wasnt easy, but it was certainly worth it.

What shape do you see yourself 10 years down the line? I see myself as a healthy person, who loves to work out, no matter what.
