We all eat healthy or unhealthy food. Without food we cannot survive. Some things harm others heal. Our unhealthy eating leads to many health issues. To prevent this situation we normally go for dieting or hit a gym.
But as seen on social media there are enormous dietitians sharing so much information that this is good that is bad without any scientific reason. That common person gets confused what to do.
Best to do in this situation is stick to homemade food as much as you can. Go for a professional dietitian who can help you through customised diet plan.
I find recommendations of Rujuta Diwekar , famous celebrity dietition very relatable, very easy to follow. When you eat local seasonal and traditional food, you don’t have to do any extra efforts to prepare a meal. Just eat right portion.
When I was under customized guidance of a dietitian. She said it’s not good to have sugar at all. How one can stop having sugar all of a sudden. She said sugar is poison, I don’t agree with her at all. She always suggest so time consuming receipes that it was not practically possible to cook all. We married women have so much more responsibilities to fulfill other than just cooking. Her approach was not practical. She always pin point what’s wrong we did but lack solutions. I sometimes felt that I am talking to a cook and not a dietitian who only have recepies to share.
We gave the power to these type of dietitians to take the lead and we will follow. But what I experienced is you just have to eat local, traditional and seasonal as said by great Rujuta Diwekar. Eat local think global are her words. Each and everything which she says in her videos are so relatable and easy to follow that I fell in love with her knowledge, personality and the way she convey things in a funny manner.
We only have to eat healthy and there is no need for dieting. When we eat healthy , the benefits which we gain through it is enough to make us fit in every way. Another important thing to do is remain active. Means, excercise regularly at least 4 days a week.
When we change our lifestyle to a healthier one. We start mindful eating, when we eat mindfully we don’t need anyone to tell us what is right for us. Our conscious mind will automatically choose right things only.
400 gms of fruits and vegetables a day are enough fiber for the day. Eat pulses daily it will fulfill the requirement of protein. Avoiding sugar or eating less sugary things will take you to right direction. Your sugar cravings will become less after sometime.
Less fried food is another one challenge we all face towards healthy lifestyle. Health should not be measured in terms of our weight instead it should include our overall health parameters.
As WHO warned about the outbreak of covid variant J N 1 in many countries we should be more careful about our health and should take precautionary measures where it is needed.
1. Avoid Crowded places.
2. Wear mask
3. Use handwash or hand sanitizer.
4. Social Distancing
Weight loss industry will only direct you towards weight loss. They are less concern about your day to day minor illnesses. There are very less players in weightloss industry who are sincere towards their clients and treat them above their monetary interests.
The thunb rule is before joining any of the plan first enroll for the basic plan for sometime. If you find worth it then go for their premium plans.
Stay healthy, stay safe, stay happy.

When I was a kid, I remember how we used to celebrate Christmas in school. We party in our school before winter break and Christmas. We used to collectively decorate our class and Christmas tree. Each class decorated by its students and the best decorated class was awarded best class.
One of our teachers used to became SANTA CLAUSE WITH MANY GIFTS AND SWEETS FOR CHILDREN. Santa Clause used to visit each class and distribute sweets. I feel those Christmas vibes today also when I go to any market or mall. When I see Christmas decorations for sale. It makes me nostalgic and I remember my good old friends who are still in contact through social media. It’s been years we have met but through our messages we always feel close and connected.
Christmas is approaching what are your plans? I am going to celebrate with my family. What about you? The vibrant colours of Christmas, Red, Golden, Green and white always makes my heart shine. The cakes and pastries in the bakery is another reason I love celebrating Christmas.
My son is always excited about Christmas. He decorate Christmas tree every year with great enthusiasm. This year also he is planning to decorate Christmas 🎄. We eat special meal on Christmas.
Christmas brings us more close to next year as it is the last week of the year. Christmas celebrations and vibes continues till 31st Dec. All the shops, malls, hotels and restaurants are seen with Christmas and new year decorations. Santa Clause is ofcourse children favourite.
Delhi, my hometown is coloured in the beauty of Christmas. How you celebrate Christmas ? How it is celebrated in your city? Do answer in comments. Are you also excited for Christmas and new year?
Merry Christmas and A Happy New Year.

Interesting story of how I got inked. About 4 years back suddenly one day I showed interest to get inked, have a tattoo on my wrist. My husband had a tattoo many years back. I was always against tattoos. I used to say it’s just for show off and the stuff like that.
First thing which I did after decided to get inked is, found a good reliable, experienced tattoo artist. After serching the internet finally found one. I paid 200 bucks at the time of booking my appointment with the tattoo artist.
I was so excited, but at the same time scared. Scared of how much pain I have to bear while going through the process of getting inked and after care. I keep on talking to people who have tattoo on their body. Making me sure that its safe and I don’t have to go through much pain. I was not sure whether I will be going to get tattoo done or not. I started searching for videos of people who got their first tattoo and their experience. Some said there was not much pain others were bothered with pain. I was so confused.
Another important thing is to choose a design which you wish to get inked. Its very difficult to choose. Google will provide you enormous answers and images but you have to choose according to your own preference and choice because it’s your body where the tattoo will remain throughout your lifetime. Choose wisely.
Now the day came, on which I was having appointment with tattoo artist. I didn’t got the courage to go after watching so many videos. Actually I was scared of needles. It gave me enough reason to withdraw my decision of getting tattooed. Another reason was aftercare and risk of having infection.
Internet provide vast information, sometimes we got confused when we get abundance of knowledge. What to do. My 200 bucks got wasted. I gave so many reasons not to get inked.
Another year passed. Again I got interested to get inked. This time I didn’t watched any video but searched for which design will be good as my first tattoo. Again paid 200 bucks to the same tattoo artist for booking appointment. This time I ask him I paid you last year 200 bucks will it be adjusted when getting a tattoo from you. He said yes it will be adjusted in final payment. I was thrilled. This time it was not pain which stopped me to get inked. It was the fear of after care, risk of infection which stopped me to get inked.
Now 400 bucks got wasted. In year 2022 I started my weight loss journey which gave me strength. I feel better. More healthy more strong 💪. I keep questioning myself why I didn’t have the courage to get inked. This year definitely I will get a tattoo on my wrist.
This time I choose another experienced tattoo artist with 15 years of experience. Booked an appointment for Sunday but can’t wait and had my tattoo done on Thursday itself. This time I was sure. It was a great experience. My husband went with me to the tattoo studio. I was holding his hand all the time while going through the process and pain. My tattoo was done by THE TATTOO SHOP, NEW DELHI, INDIA. The ambience was so nice and hygienic. They use new imported needle for my tattoo. Kept me motivated with kind words. Light music was playing. I really enjoyed, it took 30 min to tattoo get done. Before that, we took 15 min to choose the design. The Tattoo artist tell me about the aftercare. I have to be careful for 30 days.
I got my first tattoo on 21 Sep, 2023. Yeh!! So happy.

This is a story of a girl, Pari.
Her kind nature made her, the apple of everyone’s eyes. She looked after her elders well. She took care of her wellbeing as well. She was a responsible and a sensible girl.
One day, while returning home from temple Pari saw a begger. He was in terrible condition. Dirty cloths, dirty hair, walking without wearing any footwear. Pari stopped for a while to give him money. Suddenly, she took back her hand with money and ran back home.
She reached home and went to the store room and began to find something from one trunk to another, from one baggage to another and found what she was searching “A weighing scale.”
Next day, when Pari visited the temple, she took the weighing scale with her. Her eyes were searching for that begger. After looking here and there she finally found the begger sitting next to a flower shop.
She went near the begger and gave him the weighing scale. The begger got surprised and asked ” what is this ? “. Pari replied ” this is a weighing scale”. Begger asked again ” what will I do with it? “. She answered ” you don’t have to beg now”. Begger questioned, “how?”. Pari said, ” you will now be able to check the weight of the people who pass from this lane, and they will give you money for checking their weight! “.
The begger’s eyes glittered with happiness and he thanked the her.
Though Pari was a strong girl, she still gets afraid of uncertain future. One day an earthquake occurred near her city. Her friend from another country was worried and checked if she is alright. She answered yes, I am alright. Her friend felt so relieved. Her friend Remi loves Pari, understands and care about her.
They both were blessed to have each other. They both were like minded always talking about health and happiness. Pari didn’t like if She finds Remi talking to someone other than Pari. Due to Pari’s introvert nature she can’t express herself openly but gets angry with Remi. And stop talking to Remi. Remi gets upset but didn’t say anything to Pari.
One day Remi decided that she will not talk to others as Pari is more important than anyone else in her life. They both resolve there misunderstandings and found happiness in each other. Their bond and connection was like this.
You never know who will come across your path and change your life for better.

Above image which you are seeing is of Golden Temple, which is also known as Darbar Sahib. It is situated in Amritsar, Punjab, India. I recently visited it with family. Though we try to visit here every year. But this year, we were more happy that we had the privilege to bow down to Guru Granth Sahib ji, Sikh’s present Guru in the Gurudwara twice. At the time of evening prayer i.e. rehraas Sahib and early morning.
The experience this time was so amazing.
We chose weekdays this time instead of weekends to visit here. There are lakhs of devotees who visit here on holidays and weekends. We enjoy listening to gurbani. The atmosphere was so divine. Specially inside the Darbar Sahib.
You can easily come here through flight, train and by road also. It’s approx 500 kms from Delhi. It’s a foodies paradise. You can enjoy a variety of delicacies here. For vegetarian food you can visit Bhrawan da dhaba and Kesar da dhaba. And for non-veg food visit Makhan restaurant.
There is a famous aam papad (dried mango pulp coated with some spices) shop. They also sell mouth freshners. The name of the shop is Lubhaya Ram in Laurence Road, Amritsar. You can also visit here and buy some aam papad.
There is another Gurdwara situated near Golden Temple named Guru Ka Mehal. We visited there too. The whole experience was so so good. We were very much satisfied and happy with our visit to Amritsar.
You too should visit this divine place when you come to India and feel the vibes.
