My 1-year wellness journey: From self-reflection to transformation

Today marks one year since I decided to prioritize my well-being. I’m here to share a few reflections, learnings, and progress updates—building on what I shared six months ago here: https://lnkd.in/gnEs4GAz What a journey it’s been—12 months of self-discovery, discipline, and transformation. From that first step on the treadmill to building sustainable habits, it’s been both challenging and incredibly rewarding. Grateful for the progress so far—and excited for what’s ahead. On July 22, 2024, a simple glance in the mirror sparked a powerful realization—I wasn’t happy with how I looked or felt. That moment of self-reflection led to a decision: it was time to take care of myself. Instead of rushing to buy new workout gear, I asked myself: “How serious am I about this change?” So I made a deal with myself—show up on the treadmill for 30 days straight before spending a single rupee. I did it. That consistency became my first win. Only then did I reward myself with a few workout essentials. Fast forward 12 months: ✅ Dropped from 81kg to 70kg, Wiest from 36 to 34 inches. ✅ Shifted focus from just weight loss to eating clean and building strength and agility. ✅ Built a backup plan—on days I couldn’t hit the gym, I committed to 5 home exercises ✅ Ran 30-day challenges with friends and colleagues (push-ups, planks, etc.) to stay motivated ✅ Even during vacations, I stayed committed—doing at least 1–3 exercises like push-ups, squats, or planks. ✅ Surrounded myself with constant inspiration—podcasts, videos, and articles from wellness experts. ✅ The results spoke for themselves—better clarity, patience, and confidence. Now, staying active feels natural.  #KeepChallenging #ShowUpEveryday #BeCurious #KeepLearning and #Unlearning
