Before you think about cutting your calories because the scales went up this morning… read this.

One weigh in tells you nothing. Most overnight weight gain is water retention, food volume or bodily waste.. NOT body fat ❌

Stop getting upset about a single weigh in and start looking at the weekly trend instead..

Your average scale weight of the week matters more!

Small numbers can still mean something.

It’s easy to feel discouraged when your work reaches fewer people than you hoped. But imagine those people sitting in a room, listening to what you have to say. That attention is worth appreciating.

Keep creating, keep learning, and give yourself time to grow.

Muhurtham Look for #NeneyPellikuthuruAithey 🧿✨
Day 7 of #NavrathriWithSR

In our Indian society, marriage is a union of families, a matter of honour, a milestone to be achieved by a certain age, and sometimes, a checklist of caste, community, family background and societal approval. But marriage was never supposed to be about fulfilling everyone else’s expectations at the cost of your own happiness.

Marriage should be a partnership, not a social obligation. It should be two people choosing each other every day, not because society expects them to, but because life feels better, safer and more meaningful together.
It’s never about the right time to get married, it’s about the right person ♥️
Hoping we all end up only with the right person🧿

You know when something in you dies and part of you will never be the same. The middle phase of change is really uncomfortable. And the morning light even had me turning into a blonde…caught me off guard.

Feeling lucky 🎰
