With this ongoing lockdown, one way several of them utilised their time is not only by spending their quality time with their family and close ones but also by trying to redefine themselves by shedding down their extra kilos.
Model Sujo Mathew who had shot to fame with his stint in Bigg Boss Malayalam season 2 has shared a video in which he has shared how he had transformed after a major injury and fans are in awe of his dedication!
Sharing the video, he wrote, “I went onto have a very serious injury last year which forced me to be on a complete rest. With lockdown being already imposed, the peak of my frustration towards my physical appearance increased each day. I hated to see myself in the mirror. I was even intimidated seeing my old photos. I had completely lost faith in myself.
That was the time I decided to take a stern step towards my goal of achieving my old shape and realised that the key aspect is to believe in yourself. I called my coach @haridiyag and his words helped me regain my confidence. I made a promise to myself that I’m going to work hard to bring back my old physique.
Things were returning back to normal but then I had a very bad tennis elbow injury resulting in difficulty in even lifting my phone. I read online about @healthandheal_ and got in touch with them who dedicatedly helped me fix it. I avoided binge eating (without any cheat meals). I gave up on my unhealthy eating habits followed a very strict diet, and the result is right in front of you.
Here are my biggest takeaways:
1.Set a goal and divide that goal in sub-goals. Achieving those milestones will motivate you to continue working harder.
2.In most cases, we start working out because we aren’t comfortable with our current physical appearance. But with time, I promise, you will fall in love with a healthier life style.
3.We all have cravings. Restricting yourself from certain food may not last longer. Giving a break from the diet you set for yourself will help you in remaining sane for rest of the days.
4.Start a workout routine that suits your body type and one that you enjoy doing.
It’s very important to realize that people come in all shapes and sizes. But adapting a healthier lifestyle will help us in leading a better life. Indeed this was my biggest transformation till date.”
