I was
HUGE after I had my baby three years ago having gained a staggering 25 kilo's
and looked and felt awful. I looked older because of the excess weight and was
terribly depressed with the way I looked. I also discovered that I had high
cholesterol. Piyali (who also happens to be my elder
sister) had then just returned to Sri Lanka from Abu Dhabi where she had obtained her
ACE certification as an aerobics instructress. She pushed me into joining her
class. As she was my sister I had no escape! So just six weeks after my
confinement I started my aerobics. I found that I enjoyed the class thoroughly
and with a lot of dedication to regular exercise (Piyali
had also encouraged me into joining another class to compliment her two classes
per week), I gradually began to shed the weight. It did not happen overnight -
but by the time my baby turned 18 months I had lost ALL the weight I had
gained! I successfully breast fed baby till turned 2, having never dieted even
for a day! What's more my cholesterol too was back to normal! My weight loss
did wonders for my post-natal depression and I started feeling and looking
young again. In fact most often people meeting me for the first time cannot
believe I am 31 let alone a mother! I know my body is more firm and toned than it
ever was before. I am thankful to Piyali for all her
encouragement and for changing my life style so
completely as I am now hooked on to exercise!
