Our bond is getting stronger each day and Rakshaba

Our bond is getting stronger each day and Rakshabandhan has even more meaning now. 😊 Happy Rakshabandhan ♥️⁣
⁣P.S.- This little girl is looking too beautiful in this Chikankari suit😍 (obsessed mom🙈). It's from a shop in Kanpur.⁣ Swipe to see how this Elsa obsessed girl styled it😁

“How much we do depends on how much we think we

“How much we do depends on how much we think we can do.”- David Schwartz⁣
I am reading ‘The Magic of Thinking Big’ by David Schwartz these days and what an amazing little book this is. The book is full of wisdom that most of us already know but forget. It’s a reminder that we need to keep reading again and again.✨
⁣
This particular quote is so true for most of us. When I was not a mom, I worked full-time from home and cooked all the meals. I was always pressed for time. Then I became a mom, quit my job, hired a cook and still had no time for more. Then I started blogging and also took a social media project while taking care of Idhaya and I thought- ‘It’s enough’. Then I started @littlefixespodcast while doing everything I was already doing and could do everything. Now, I do all that plus I workout, I cook, I teach Idhaya and things are going well. I know that I can do even more.😊
⁣
When we have our ‘plate full’, we feel that we can’t do more but when we are forced to do more, we end up optimizing. It’s a matter of prioritizing things. Keep exploring yourself and you will be surprised by what all you can do.⁣ Is this true for you too?
⁣
Thanks Elina @momfunda for recommending this book⁣

Love your body and keep working towards making it

Love your body and keep working towards making it better😁⁣
⁣
This is what I look like in normal clothes now. It’s a huge change for me if I talk only about how my body looks. I was never thin but a little thinner than this till I was 28🙈⁣
⁣
Need to tone up a little more to get there but totally loving the transformation. I have lost 7 kilos and 2-4 inches from different areas of my body. I have more stamina now and am stronger💪⁣
⁣
Another good thing which came out of this is that I have been able to motivate many of you.⁣
I was doubtful of my own commitment initially but after seeing the little changes, I kept pushing myself. So woman! Never stop working on yourself whether it's fitness or anything else. What say?⁣

I would have looked more put together had I known that these pictures would be posted on my feed😜⁣
⁣
You might have seen many of my fitness updates in stories but still posting here because of the number of queries I get (I get very few queries otherwise). The most frequently asked question is ‘how’. The answer is-⁣
⁣
🍱Healthy Eating- I eat regular home-cooked food like dal-rice and roti-sabzi. The portions are measured but there are 3 meals plus 2 snacks each day so I don’t feel hungry. I take one or two cheat meals a week and still try to limit the portions. Controlling what I eat is tough and I know that the results would have been much better with better control🙈⁣
⁣
⁣
🏋️Regular Exercise- I work out 4-6 times a week and try to be active otherwise too. All the workouts at home only.⁣
⁣
⁣
I didn’t figure out these things on my own and took help of the fantastic Ishav Lamba @acemomfit . Ishav understood my lifestyle and food habits to design everything accordingly. She gave me meal plans and workout plans which kept changing every few weeks. She saw all my stories here and always asked how much I ate every time I posted a cheat meal😆 Good news- she will soon be on @littlefixespodcast so if you have any questions, you can send them to me.⁣
⁣
I am a work in progress. The habits of eating consciously and working out regularly have to stay for a fitter me. Sustaining and improving fitness levels is a lifestyle change so if you think that you will train for a few months, get in shape and go back to unhealthy habits while still maintaining your shape- not gonna happen.⁣
Can you guess how much weight did I lose in six months?😅⁣

The Star of my Social Media📱⁣
If not for her, life would have been different and I probably wouldn't have started this page. The Podcast may or may not have happened too so if my Social Media Day post seems like a Mother's Day post, I can't help it🙈⁣
Here's to my rockstar, to the power of Social 💪 , to being a social media marketer and to being a borderline social media addict 😉⁣
⁣
P.S.- the spots on her face are my makeup 😂⁣

Me on Mother's Day- "Aj mera din hai, I need a break from everything, even from Idhaya."⁣
Me on Father's Day- "Aj apka aur Idhaya ka din hai, spend it with each other" 🙈⁣
⁣
Do you do the same?😝⁣
⁣
By the way, this card design is inspired by internet. The rocket is outline of Idhaya's foot. She coloured it and I added finishing touches 😊⁣

I love reading and so does Idhaya but it's not that simple 🤪.⁣
I wait all day for her to go to bed and then at 8:15 pm, she presents me a stack of books to read to her. This is when the game begins and I play the sneaky mom🙈⁣
Have you ever done this or did I just give you an idea you want me to thank for?⁣

17 hours without electricity! We experienced this

17 hours without electricity! We experienced this yesterday. I have lived without power for days but it was my first with Idhaya. A major fault happened inside my residential society and there was no power from 4 am to 7:30 pm. Thankfully, water-supply wasn’t affected.⁣
⁣
I was worried how Idhaya would take it but it was surprisingly easy. Here’s what we did-⁣
⁣
⁣
✨All my work was paused. It was a forced break but one I have been craving for weeks.⁣
⁣
✨Almost finished a book. I can barely read one chapter a day these days so finishing a book minus the last chapter in one day was an achievement.⁣
⁣
✨Idhaya played around like every day. She knew that there’s no electricity and didn’t ask for anything more than once. ⁣
⁣
✨We napped on the floor. Me for 45 minutes and Idhaya for 2 hours. Yes, without a fan.⁣
⁣
✨Idhaya actually liked the fact that my attention was on her a lot more than usual.⁣
⁣
It wasn’t the ideal situation but the little positives and my crazy little Elsa had me not thinking too much.⁣
⁣
Have you faced such a situation especially after having your kids? How did the day turn out for you?⁣
