‘I walked, danced, ate only homecooked food’
Naveena keeps sharing her before-and-after weight loss pictures on Instagram. Sharing a workout video from her living room, she said, “I lost 20 kg at home with just a pair of dumbbells. I started during the Covid-19 pandemic when I could not go out. I did not have access to Swiggy or Zomato, which was actually a good thing. I worked out every day at home with 5 kg and 10 kg dumbbells. I walked, danced, and ate only homecooked food, and I slowly started losing weight and building muscle. I realised you don't need any magic foods or hours of cardio to lose weight. Just eating the right food and spending 45-60 minutes of your time is enough.”
'Fitness is not about cheat meals or detox drinks'
In another recent video, she said, “Six years ago, I started going to the gym because I was not confident. I was not happy with the clothes' fit... I wanted to be as lean as a model in just a month or two. Over time, though, my perspective completely changed. After years of paying gym memberships that went to waste, I started working out at home and things are different now. I finally understand how fitness actually works. It is not a quick fix, it is a lifestyle. It is not about cheat meals or detox drinks, it is about giving yourself some love and taking care of your body.”
