HOW TO STAY FIT AT HOME
Morning
I will drink a glass of hot water with honey in the morning on an empty stomach. I will typically have a fruit for breakfast. An apple, banana or papaya are good options. It varies according to the availability. If there's no fruit in my home il have 2 dosas or 2 idlis. One glass of milk is compulsory for me.
Secret
In order to succeed, you must close your mouth while chewing the food and chew at least 24 times. A healthy diet is not just about counting calories, it's about paying attention to what you eat. Parents often tell us to eat slowly and not swallow it too quickly, and not to watch television or use our phones while eating because our attention will be diverted from food. when you focus and chew you'll be able to eat only for the capacity of your stomach..
Lunch
I'll drink 1 litre of water from morning to lunch. For lunch I eat whatever I want but by focussing and chewing properly. I generally take rice in afternoon. I'll drink another one litre of water from lunch to evening.
I'll have something for every 4 hours.
At 8 AM, I'll have breakfast.
By 12 PM, I'll have lunch.
I'll take a break at 4 PM.
I'll finish my dinner by 8 PM
So for break if I'm taking any tea or coffee I'll have it without any sugar. Yup I never take sugar. You can say I'm following no sugar diet.
Dinner
There's is no particular food items I follow.. Whatever is there in my home I'll eat. It can be any tiffin variety. The trick again is focus and chew. And a glass of milk for sure.
Walk / Dance / Sport
I walk atleast 2 kms a day.. Brisk walk. You don't need to hit the gym. You can do brisk walks or dance to keep our muscles in tact. I've seen my friends playing badminton. Some work out is necessary to keep our body active. Just half an hour or 1 hour of any activity is needed.
