I have a lot to say but first things first , I am sorry to have randomly stopped posting and now randomly posting 😁. I wanted to share this wonderful news with you all ! We are expecting our second baby and I am due in May 2024 . We are thrilled and beyond excited ! The past five months have been extraordinary with so much growth and learning . I started a new role in my company , as a sales rep and I am so grateful that I got this opportunity. Everyday day is a day filled with of new experiences, new talents to be explored and working on things that need some improvement . A huge thank you to each one of you for taking the time and messaging me in instagram on ask if we are doing okay . 🥹😊❤️. Things had gotten really busy with the new role , pregnancy and the usual routine . Taking out time for instagram is still a question and struggle but I am working towards slowly coming back to posting , even if it’s not regular . I hope you all are doing well and in good health and spirits . Much love ! 💕

This was me , this week , Friday morning after workout. I don't really crave for Macdonalds but this Friday when I was about to leave from the gym, I really wanted to have mcd for breakfast.

If you take me back 9 years , I would never do this. The fact that I simply went and grabbed an egg and sausage muffin , and devoured it , made me believe how far I have come in terms of my relationship with food . I would have also not had it for the fact that people would judge me for getting straight out of the gym and eating Macdonalds as post workout meal. To me , this is progress ! You don't count progress only in terms of how you look , how much weight you lost and how much heavier you can lift.

It's so easy to say " who eats Mcdonalds after breakfast " , " oh my workout will be ruined after eating it " , " it's processed food " , "I will be eating more calories than I just burnt in the gym" , " I need better self control " and bla bla bla

But you know what ? It doesn't matter !

I simply ate it post workout, then ate rest of my meals as planned , did not do steps more than what I could do( to burn that deliciousness) and did not feel guilty at all .

I can assure you own thing . This doesn't come easy. Diet culture is so well engraved around us that sometimes it just takes all the little psychological progress we just made in terms of mindset but let me tell you, had i not had it , I would have craved for it so badly the entire day and would have literally messed up all my meals.

I still can't get over how delicious this was and how more often I will be having it💗

Do you hold yourself from eating something for similar reasons ? Share in comments:)

For the past few months , this account has felt directionless to me and I have even found it very difficult to share these feelings on this platform.
Content creation is a struggle, mostly I want to broaden my niche and share so much more rather than primarily sharing only fitness content. Then I think about how having a niche is important to connect to the right audience who can relate to you and find value in your content.

I am not very good at time management and now I am finding it so hard to make out time for content creation and creativity. Yeah yeah I know when you really are passionate about something, you make time for it no matter what , but that is not just happening . I even decided to delete my account and then when I decided to do that, I couldn't do it ! Everyday I feel I have so much share but how will the audience connect to it since my niche is health and fitness . Yes , my account has not grown since forever but the only reason I have been on this platform is because of the lifelong conections I have made , the support i get and feeling of "mere apne log".

When I thought about deleting the account , I cried for multiple days . As much as I don't feel like coming on IG very often now , I still have something dil se dil tak with you guys ! Shayad wohi hai bas jisne abhi bhi jode rakha hai.

If you have suggestions, most welcome 😊
If you have any inputs to my feelings, most welcome 🙂
If you are feeling what I am feeling, please share 😇

I may change the niche of my account entirely or may not but whatever I chose to do , I promise to make you smile and provide value to you💗

From one home to another , after 4 whole years ❣
I always thought that home is that permanent spot where a person lives and they have their loved one around but oh how my thoughts changed.

Is Canada home for me ? Absolutely yes!
Is India home to me ? Absolutely yes !

Home is where you are surrounded by your loved ones , this is what I truly felt when I landed in my hometown yesterday ( Jalandhar). Home is where you laugh , make memories, cry , feel the sadness , face the challenges, a safe spot , your secure nest , the place where you want to come back to after being away for a while.

Everything felt different when I landed in my hometown. I keep thinking how do I feel this and why do I feel this ? Maybe it's not the place that changed, maybe it's me that changed. What once felt like privilege, now feels weird because I am so used to doing all the things by myself. The only constant thing that has not changed in these 4 years and will never change is the love and affection my loved one have for me and vice versa. So no wonder I feel home at more than a place .

So glad to be back home once again , though for a very short time but I am soaking in every minute of care , love , affection and memories ❣

This is the time when you will see people making and sharing their resolutions. It feels amazing to read them right ?!
There is absolutely nothing wrong in this and it's a great thing to do but.....
This is a reminder to not feel overwhelmed or pressured to make resolutions.
You want to make resolutions? Sure !
You do not want to make any resolutions? Sure!
You want to see how the year slowly unfolds and then see how you want to slowly gel in ? Sure !
You want to find yourself in 2023 again ? Sure !

Social media is wonderful! It is very motivating , inspiring but equally overwhelming too. When you see resolutions all around , you feel that you're missing something, you feel that something is lacking in you. I want to remind you to not feel the pressure for even 0.5 % to have big goals or have a list of changes you want to see in yourself . Sometimes, a phase in life is just about being where you are , absorbing what you really have , not have too many goals and just really connect to yourself. If in all these years , making a list of resolutions has not worked , maybe this year , you see how the year unfolds and what are the tiniest doable goals you can set for yourself.

I hope this , and the coming years in your life, bring you closer to yourself , give you time to inhale the beautiful life you have been blessed with and take care of yourself. ❣

I wish you all a very Happy 2023 💥

Wow , 2022 has been such a ride. The highlight is 2022 honestly for me was starting a full time job in August. In 4 months I have seen so much positive change in me , that last night I really raised a toast to myself for putting in so much work and slowly seeing the results. Proud of myself !
The change has not at all been easy, my friends . I was very very scared to take this leap of faith but it turned out to be one of the best decisions of 2022. Everyday after August has been tiring beyond words, feeling guilty every night for not being able to give more time to my family, specially khushu but I also feel accomplished almost every night .🙏
So grateful and thankful!

2022 , I also found out I have ADHD and PMDD , I had other health issues constantly like vertigo but they did not break my spirit . I also struggled a lot with mental health , I was also diagnosed with anxiety, and at one point, I really downgraded myself to an extreme level and thought that I am good for nothing.

I do not have any resolutions for 2023.
I only have a wish to be more kind to myself and take care of myself. I have struggled with this the most in 2022 and I only wish to improve on this. You can tell how much this impacts every other aspect of life, isn't it ?!
Here's to taking care of myself and my soul .
Here's to more of not being afraid of new changes and challenges .
Thank you to you all for being here. Thank you for being so supportive everyday, specially when I am struggling and being so vulnerable. I am truly grateful for you all and I wish the best of this and the coming years for you ❤. I wish that you all take care of yourself and never forget how amazing you are and what all you can do 💥

I recently received so many DM's from you guys , saying " you lost more weight and you look so amazing "
For the first time ever, this made me numb and I couldn't feel anything.
Yes , I recently lost weight, yes it looks prominent too but I didn't do it consciously and I didn't even want this to happen. Top two reasons I lost weight:
1. My ADHD medication really affects my appetite . I only feel slightly hungry before I take it ( early morning ) , after that i only start to feel hungry in the evening. I still do eat a small portion for lunch but not with heart. I do eat a pretty filling snack that's dense both nutrition wise and calories wise too. Then I eat my dinner and this had definitely created a caloric deficit because I am eating less than what I used to eat before. So isn't worth taking the meds ? For me , Yes ! They help me immensely with focus, concentration and the ability of getting tasks done.

2. Now , all my meals have a component thats more dense in calories but also dense in nutrition.

3. Secondly ,after my job started , it really keeps me very engaged for good 7-8 hours , where I am troubleshooting and hustling to provide the quality technical support and customer service . I just love it and so grateful to get to do it. This is another reason that has really removed the continuous snacking throughout the day.

You know how it is . You really feel happy about it when you have put in work and you yourself wanted it to happen. But weightloss is not what I wanted at the moment . This is not a goal i wanted because I was very much happy with 5 more kilos:). My ADHD diagnosis opened up so much more to me , about myself . Me and my psychiatrist came to decision to slightly lower down the dosage , such that the appetite is slightly better but it won't completely be back to normal. And this is something almost everyone feels , after they take stimulants for ADHD. As always, I wanted to share this with you guys and make it clear ,- as to why and how it is happening 😊

NOT EVERYONE LOSES WEIGHT CONSCIOUSLY, ALL THE TIME. THERE ARE SO MANY FACTORS, MEFICAL CONDITIONS AND MENTAL HEALTH CONDITIONS THAT CAN CAUSE WEIGHT LOSS . 🙏

Happiest birthday my heart , Khushnoor.
Thank you for making us the luckiest humans on this earth by coming into our lives 4 years ago.
Your smile , your kindness , your empathic nature , your giggles, your love and care , your brightest eyes and your sparkling personality just lights up our lives every single moment.
You taught me and made me saw the capacity with which my heart could love someone. The love that I never knew existed , the love I never knew my heart was even capable of feeling it for someone . With you growing up, I have grown up in multiple ways too , so thank you for that 🤗

I wish you nothing but good health , love, happiness, courage , strength and above all , the power of believing in yourself. I wish that you always stand up for yourself , no matter what.

Everyday when I look at her , I always say this to myself " I have a million faults in me , but maybe I had done a very good deed someday that I got her as my daughter . Grateful beyond words ". My eyes get teary as I write this message.

Also , Here's to 4 years of breastfeeding and it just blows my mind how we reached here. Grateful that I we could do it for this long ❣

When was the last time you appreciated yourself?
Felt proud of yourself ?

I asked this question to myself yesterday because I don't even remember the last time I did it.
Two months into a new job role , after years of being self employed and then continuing to be self employed alongwith a full time job ?
I have been not been able to be consistent on IG and other stuff related to social media since sometime and yesterday I literally downgraded my self in my head to the lowest level. Oh and don't get me started on focus and being able to properly do one thing due to ADHD.

I am absolutely loving my new job role and it's a blessing to work for such an amazing company. There are a lot of new things that I am learning for my role , every single day.
For now , my brain is struggling to he creative for social media content but does it make sense judging myself for this?

I barely ever appreciate myself or feel proud of myself but I almost atleast once a day say doubt my worth and the overall work and efforts I put on a daily basis. I always feel I don't do enough and I don't have it in me.

I really sat down alone for sometime yesterday and said these words to myself
" Simrt , the amount of work you do , efforts you put , it is absolutely commendable. How do you even do it ? Hays off to you girl ! You should be extremely proud of yourself "
I smiled with tears eyes at that very moment . How can I he so harsh on myself? How can I neglect the efforts I put ?
How can I be so mean to myself.
If I am not kind to myself , how will I even have the ability to realise the mistakes I am making because I will just be busy beating myself up !

I urge you, yes you, to take a moment today and reflect on everything you do and be proud of yourself and appreciate yourself.
I want to do this more often, I want to do this everyday .
It was an absolute day of self reflection yesterday and rather than only thinking about what I cannot do at the moment , I will also appreciate myself for all of what I am doing ✌

Change is hard !
Change also opens up new opportunities!
Change tells us more of what are capable of !

One month into starting a full time job role , I can swear on these lines.
As I neared my joining date , I used to have so much anxiety every night. How will I manage everything?
How will I manage my workouts at thr gym?
How will I make sure that my vjokd is getting enough time?
How will we manage when khushu will be sick and we both will be working from home ?
How will I manage simrtlifts ?
How will this big change impact my family ?

I had a million questions but I can vouch for the fact that with each passing week , I slowly started to ( won't say surely started getting the answers ) see new perspectives towards these questions . I slowly started to see how much more I can do , the smallest steps we as a family can take to make things more manageable for all three.

If you're someone sailing in the same boat , hang in there . You will slowly start to find your pace . I promise! In the beginning you will wonder why did you even do this, you might cry too ( I do multiple times) but just promise it will be so much worth it. I also have to admit that asking for help and diving tasks between you and your partner is such a big tool in getting things done without simply losing your mind and going crazy.

I am still lacking with finding the time that I want to dedicate to IG and creating content but I know I will figure that out soon too. ✌

I can say that now , it will only start to get better and better. 🙏

Here's wishing you all a smashing week ahead. 💗
