1. Build one habit at a time

She shared, “Don’t try to do everything at once as that will put your body in a state of shock. Build one habit every week.” It requires time to adjust to new exercises or diet. If everything at once is added when you embark on the weight loss journey, it gets too overwhelming for the body.

2. Build a workout plan and stick to it

Bulbull reminded that sticking to a particular workout plan is important. It gradually builds endurance and improves fitness.

3. Calculate your calorie intake

It is essential to be mindful of the calorie consumption. She suggested calculating the calorie of the daily meals. To be in deficit especially, the calorie count is important. Bulbull advised using calorie calculator apps for accurate calorie count. This practice helps you understand whether you’re overeating, under-eating, or meeting your needs.

4. Stick to the calorie budget

Bulbull highlighted this to be very important to stick to the calorie budget and keep your protein intake sufficient. Protein is integral to a balanced diet. While calorie budget is how many calories you need to consume each day as per your goal.

5. Drink water to beat craving

Craving is very common during diet, but Bulbull suggested drinking water to curb the craving. She called it a ‘double win’ as this will not only hydrate you but also keep you in a calorie deficit.

6. 30 minutes cardio

Bulbull regarded 30 minutes of cardio as a gamechanger. Even for 30 minutes, cardio is effective for weight loss.

    ABOUT THE AUTHOR
    Adrija Dey

    Adrija Dey’s proclivity for observation fuels her storytelling instinct. As a lifestyle journalist, she crafts compelling, relatable narratives across diverse touchpoints of the human experience, including wellness, mental health, relationships, interior design, home decor, food, travel, and fashion that gently nudge readers toward living a little better. For her, stories exist in flesh and bones, carried by human vessels and shaped through everyday endeavours. It is the small stories we live and share that make us human. After all, humans and their lores are the most natural and raw repositories of stories, and uncovering them, for her, is akin to peeling an orange under a winter afternoon sun. Always up for a chat, she believes the best stories come from unfiltered yapping, where "too much information" is kind of the point. A graduate of Indraprastha College for Women, University of Delhi, and an alumna of the Indian Institute of Mass Communication (IIMC), Delhi, Adrija spends her idle hours cocooned with herbal tea and a gripping thriller, scribbling inner monologues she loosely calls poetic pieces, often with her succulents in attendance. On lazier days, she can be found binge-watching, for the nth time, one from her comfort-show holy trinity: The Office (US), Brooklyn Nine-Nine, or Modern Family. Dancing by herself to her peppy playlists, however, is an everyday ritual she swears by religiously.Read More
