It is actually the opposite. I work with you to quantify your portions of regular home-cooked meals, applying the 80/20 rule so you can stay consistent without the misery of crash diets. Weight loss is not about eliminating the food you love; it is about understanding how to balance it. My approach is simple: we focus on sustainable habits that actually fit your life. Whether you are a busy mom, a working professional, or just starting, we don't fixate on 'diet food.' Instead, we look at your plate and make adjustments to ensure you are getting enough protein, fiber, and healthy fats while still enjoying the ghar ka khana you enjoy. ### How The Method Works * **Quantified Portions:** You do not have to stop eating rice or roti. We just learn how much is right for your specific metabolism and goals. * **The 80/20 Rule:** I teach you to eat clean 80% of the time, leaving room for those treats you love. This is how we avoid burnout and stop the cycle of 'dieting' followed by binging. * **Science Without Jargon:** You will learn what protein, carbs, and fats actually do for your body. No complex charts, just practical knowledge. ### Why This Works Most people fail because they try to be perfect. They eat salads for three days and then quit. By focusing on simple Indian meals, we create a structure you can follow for years, not just weeks. We track your daily habits—food, sleep, and movement—to ensure you are making progress even when the scale doesn't move. You will lose weight, yes, but you will also gain energy, better skin, and the confidence that comes with knowing how to fuel your body correctly. ## About Ishita Chauhan Hi, I’m Ishita.
