When lockdown was declared, she started working out at home itself. During this period she ate only home cooked food which turned out to be a blessing for her.

“I do cheat a lot but I am happy with the progress as my as my inches have dropped. I do get to indulge, so I am happy with the scale going down 500 grams or one kg a week,” she wrote on Instagram.

About intermittent fasting

Intermittent fasting means that you don't eat for a period of time each day or week. Some popular approaches to intermittent fasting are:

Alternate-day fasting: Eat a normal diet one day and either completely fast or have one small meal (less than 500 calories) the next day.

5:2 fasting: Eat a normal diet five days a week and fast two days a week.

Daily time-restricted fasting: Eat normally but only within an eight-hour window each day. For example, skip breakfast but eat lunch around noon and dinner by 8 p.m.

Experts say intermittent fasting is safe for many people, but it's not for everyone. Skipping meals may not be the best way to manage your weight if you're pregnant or breast-feeding. If you have kidney stones, gastroesophageal reflux, diabetes or other medical problems, talk with your doctor before starting intermittent fasting.
