Most women will resonate with Ambika Nandini’s postpartum journey. A 35-year-old from Bihar, Nandini put on many kilos after delivering her child. She weighed 75 kg at her highest. The constant exhaustion, body ache, sleepless nights and breastfeeding left her questioning herself if she would ever be able to get back in shape. “I was exclusively breastfeeding, which meant my life revolved around a two-hour cycle. Long hours of feeding, sleepless nights, and caring for a newborn left me physically drained. My back and shoulders were in constant pain, and I felt restricted in my own body,” Nandini shared with Moneycontrol.
Like they say, nothing is impossible if you will something into existence. Nandini joined FITTR to lose weight in a holistic manner. In 4 months alone, she was able to bring her weight down from 75 kg to 50 kg. “Postpartum I would fit into L size. However, now I have gone back to wearing S size. At one point I used to wonder if it was even possible, but with sustainable measures and consistency you can always achieve your weight management goals,” Nandini said

Weight loss advice
Don’t overwhelm yourself by trying to do everything at once. Focus on one habit, one workout, or one positive change at a time, Nandini said. “Small consistent efforts create remarkable results over time,” she added. After losing 25 kg in 4 months, Nandini feels confident in her skin. “My body feels stronger, more flexible, and more capable. Daily activities that once felt exhausting now feel manageable and enjoyable. Mentally, I have developed a much deeper sense of self-belief. This journey taught me that if I can rebuild myself during the first year of motherhood, I can achieve anything I truly commit to. Today, I feel confident, strong, and thriving as a mother,” she said on a concluding note.
