Height: 5 feet 4 inches

City: Bangalore

Highest weight recorded: 85 kgsWeight lost: 23 kgsDuration it took me to lose weight: 5 months

The turning point: Owing to my incredibly hectic lifestyle and sedentary job, my weight had touched a whopping 85 kilos. Since I had always been fit and healthy, the fact that I had gained a lot of weight really pained me. I was aware that I had become overweight and needed to get back in shape as soon as possible.My breakfast: Nothing

My lunch: I eat my lunch at 1 pm. I follow two meals a day diet plan as suggested by my dietician. It includes 1 chapati, a portion of rice, 1 vegetarian or non-vegetarian curry and lots of green salad and sprouts beans. I take only a cup of green tea in between two meals.

My dinner: Same as my lunch. I have my dinner latest by 8:30 pm.

Pre-workout meal: Nothing

Post-workout meal: Nothing

I indulge in: I did not have any cheat day in the last 5 months.

My workout: My workout routine is as follows:

For the first month, I ran for 10 kilometres every day and tried to cover it in 90 minutes. I took it up a notch in the second and third month and started running for 15 kilometres every day. After that, I made it a point to start cycling for 15 kilometres in addition to running. As of now, I have covered 2100 kilometres in just 5 months

Low-calorie recipes I swear by: A plate of cucumber salad

Fitness secrets I unveiled: I have realised that running is one of the forms of working out! So I make it a point to run as fast as I can.

How do I stay motivated? Whenever I feel like I am straying from the path of fitness, I make it a point to look at my old pictures. They are enough in itself to stay inspired and lose weight. Moreover, I used to wear size 38 trousers and XXL t-shirts earlier and now I can wear a size 28 pants and small size t-shirts. This feeling is INCOMPARABLE!

How do you ensure you dont lose focus? While friends and family members kept me motivated to stay fit and healthy, reading Times of Indias weight loss stories and Dr Dixits WhatsApp group also motivated me to lose weight and get back in shape.

Whats the most difficult part of being overweight? Battling unsolicited rude comments was one of the worst aspects of weight loss. I was body-shamed by people around me which made a huge dent on my confidence levels. Moreover, I wasnt able to everyday tasks with the same ease and it really bothered.

What shape do you see yourself 10 years down the line? Over the years, I want to achieve a V-shaped physique like Hrithik Roshan. What are the lifestyle changes you made? I made a couple of lifestyle changes and made sure to follow them strictly. Some of them are:

1.I completely gave up sugar and carbonated drinks

2. I made it a point to include protein-rich food items in my diet.

3. I started having a cup of green tea
