One of the biggest myths surrounding weight loss routines is that you will have to restrict your meals to only a boring and bland variety of food in order to shed a couple of pounds which is not true at all, exclaims 18-year-old Garvit Kawatra.

Garvit tells us that he recently lost 49 kgs and trimmed from 118 kgs to 69 kgs by undertaking the following steps and weight loss diet.

"I commenced my weight loss journey by going for an early morning swim daily for 2 weeks. Post which, I joined a gym. I didnt skip a single swimming session or gym workout session for a month and started noticing changes in my body consequently. This motivated me to include running in my daily routine as well and swap my regular meals with the below low-carb diet plan.

Breakfast: One apple or banana with a cup of black coffee

Lunch: Oats/brown rice/a bowl of salad/idli sambar/ besan chilla and sometimes one chapati with seasonal veggies

Evening snack: 5 almonds + a cup of green tea

Pre-workout: A cup of black coffee

Dinner: Protein shake + 1 papaya

Apart from sticking to this diet plan, I upped my water consumption a lot and also started eating a lot of fruits and raw veggies. Actually, heres a pro tip for anyone who hates oatmeal - mix a packet of Maggi masala in your bowl of oats to make them satiable. This was my go-to meal for a very long amount of time.

"Swimming comprised my morning cardio and evenings were reserved for weight training at the gym. From Monday-Friday Id follow a dedicated workout regime targeting only one part of the body, such as Monday - back, Tuesday - bicep-triceps, etc and Saturdays were reserved for abs. On Sundays, Id go for a 2-3 kms run in the evening, which used to be very difficult initially but as time progressed, I eased into this routine.

1. Starving yourself will not help you lose any weight at all.

2. When tired, rest. Quitting should never be your option!

3. Focus on why you commenced on this journey in the first place and you will be motivated enough to carry on.

4. Comparison is the thief of joy! Do not compare your results with someone else's. We are all on our own journeys.
