Sustainable weight reduction may seem unattainable in a society bombarded with rapid fixes, crash diets, and pricey fitness regimens. However, genuine results usually come from modest, consistent adjustments. Aryaa Arora dropped 18 kg at home without following a strict diet or joining a gym. She provides 7 simple suggestions in her June 17 Instagram post for how she accomplished her objectives.

1. Determine your BMR initially

Aryaa began by figuring out how many calories her body needed before going on a diet. Use this prompt on ChatGPT: "My weight is __, height __, age __, female/male — what is my BMR and calorie intake for weight loss?" This helps you maintain a little deficit in your diet without undereating.

2. Don't limit your plate; balance it

Instead of cutting out entire food categories, Aryaa simply maintained a balance between them. What's her tried-and-true method? Each meal contains 40% protein, 30% fiber, 20% carbohydrates, and 10% lipids. The goal is to maintain control while feeling energized and satiated.

3. Work to strengthen rather than simply burn

Her weekly workout schedule:

• four days of strength training
• Two days of cardiovascular exercise
• Walking every day to keep active

This aided in accelerating fat reduction and gaining lean muscle.

4. Count calories for seven days only

She kept a record of her food for a week, not to become overly concerned with each mouthful, but to gain a better understanding of her dietary habits.

5. Eliminate the trash, but not all of it

The 80:20 rule was what Aryaa followed. She reduced her intake of processed meals, takeout, refined sugar, flour, oil, and fried foods, but she maintained a healthy balance and flexibility.

6. Treat hydrating and sleeping as if they were a job.

Her energy levels, digestion, and cravings improved significantly with 2–3 liters of water per day and 7–8 hours of good sleep.

7. Take care of your hormones and frame of mind

The importance of mental health in weight loss cannot be overstated. Aryaa maintained a journal, practiced meditation, and expressed thankfulness on a daily basis. In the end, she thinks that a calmer mind produces greater consistency and, thus, more long-lasting outcomes.
