If you work a 9-5 job, and have been trying to lose weight for a while now, you already know that it's not an easy task. But it's not impossible either.

It is only when the going gets tough, the tough get going! And with this incredible analogy, wed like to introduce you to 27-year-old Pankaj Prasad, who lost 10 kgs in 2 months despite working a 9-hour job, six days a week.

Says Pankaj, I work a 9-hour job, six days a week, and a little while ago, post-work I was also preparing for competitive exams. During this phase, I was as far away from exercising and eating healthy as I possibly could be. So naturally, my weight kept increasing. I also became prone to acidity and fatty liver disease.

"Though my ailments had not reached a very critical stage at that point, the way I looked in mirrors and photographs forced me to think about my future. I was also already not able to buy my favourite clothes! I decided that I needed to take an action to not just lead a disease-free life but also look and feel good in my own skin," he adds. "Thus, I commenced on the below weight loss plan to lose 10 kgs, and trim from 90 kgs to 80 kgs in 2 months."

After a lot of research, I commenced my weight loss journey by making three changes in my lifestyle and following a basic exercise routine.

1. I bought a fitness band and started tracking my daily movement with it. I made sure that I walked more than 12000 steps every day. Some days Id even walk upto 20,000 steps in one day!

2. I replaced my daily cup of milk tea with green tea.

3. I also made sure that I clocked 4000 steps in the morning, before going to work this was mandatory!

I was addicted to tea but I substituted my early morning cup of tea with a glass of lukewarm lemon water. Earlier, Id consume at least 5 cups of tea daily but I reluctantly shifted to two cups of green tea in a day it made a great difference. I also stuck to only eating home-cooked food. Below is the diet plan I resorted to."

Id begin my day at 5:30 am with a glass of lukewarm lemon water and then clock in 4000 steps. After which, this is what I ate through the day:

Breakfast: Oats/Poha/Besan ka Chilla/ Partha with Veggies with a cup of Green Tea or Herbal Tea

Mid-morning snacks: 4 Oats Biscuit with a cup of Green Tea

Lunch: Home-made Roti made from Multigrain atta + Veggies + Salad + one glass of diluted Apple Cider Vinegar

Post-lunch: A cup of Green Tea

Evening snacks: One Banana, or Apple or Pomegranate or any other fruits and one cup of Milk Tea/Black Coffee/Green Tea

Dinner: Home-made Roti + Veggies + Dal

Before-bed: A glass of Water with 1 spoon of Psyllium husk

"My exercise routine could be divided in two parts - morning and evening.

Walk 2000 steps. Post completing this target, Id do some aerobics or include running for at least 10 minutes to meet my target of 12,000 steps.

Id hit the gym in the evening. My main workout would comprise cardio to lose weight and bit of leg raises and plank and crunches to flatten my stomach. To break it down further:

Treadmill exercises -

10 minutes of walking at 6km/hr

10 mins of running at 9km/hr speed

2 min of high-speed running of 12km/hr

Skipping ropes and jumping jacks - 20 x 3 each

Crunches - 24 crunches on every alternate days: 12, 8 and 4 times"

My weight loss journey has just started. I will lose some more weight in the coming months in order to reach my goal of 72 kgs and a perfect body!

1. Don't wait for the next New Year to make a resolution to lose weight. The best time to start this journey is now!

2. Don't just follow any specific diet without knowing your strengths and weaknesses. Try to make a diet plan which you can sustain for your lifestyle, otherwise you will end up doing nothing.

3. There is no such thing as a cheat day or cheat food. You have to work hard daily!

4. Consistency and patience are the only keys to success."
