This is a picture of a chocolate éclair and donut from Mad Over Donuts, bot of which went into my tummy after a super relaxing facial session last weekend. And sadly, this is the only picture I have of the guilty pleasures I indulged in over the last seven days or so. Sorry, Elina @dietfunda_official. … More Week 5 RECAP – Embrace, Enjoy, Eat | #WordoftheWeek2020
Laddoo doesn’t like her hair left open. This photo is an exception because of the hairband. And even that lasted only till her just-washed hair dried up. Then it was back in a pony tail. 🙄 “Baandh do, baandh do,” she’ll say [Tie it up, tie it up] as soon as I touch her rubber … More I’m NOT Pretty | #ConversationswithLaddoo
In my previous post I Documented the Death of my Diet. Now obviously, it wasn’t titled THAT, and I didn’t mention anywhere (at least not in detail) that my diet went for a toss, but it did and allow me to explain how. This may sound very privileged, but having maids who don’t show up … More #WordoftheWeek2020 | Week 5 – EMBRACE, ENJOY, EAT.
In the spirit of documenting, here’s a day by day recap of the Week 4 of 2020. 🙂 Week 4, Day 1 Wednesday, January 22, 2020. I was much more relaxed than usual this day right from the time I woke up because Sandeep was home. He had worked on Saturday, so a comp-off was … More Week 4 Recap – DOCUMENT | #WordoftheWeek2020
The whole reason I created an online profile and became ‘Being Mamma Bear’ was… well, to be able to share pregnancy updates with strangers, anonymously, because we had told only family and close friends, and didn’t want to make this life-update ‘public’ before the baby was born. But then after Laddoo’s birth, once everything was … More #WordoftheWeek2020 | Week 4 – DOCUMENT
This week I could not do what I set out to do. My word for this week was to ‘Create’ and I had set out some specific goals for myself and I just couldn’t do it. And even though I didn’t create what I had in mind, it doesn’t mean I didn’t create AT ALL. … More Week 3 Recap – CREATE | #WordoftheWeek2020
This was a no-brainer for me. I’m almost certain that I knew this was going to be my word even before I knew I was going to do a word a week. I’ve suspected that a major reason behind the way I was feeling was because I wasn’t exercising my creativity as much as I … More #WordoftheWeek2020 | Week 3 – CREATE
This whole thing is surreal. I cannot believe this is happening, and THAT is extremely ironic because the whole of this past week all I was supposed to do was BELIEVE. So let me tell you this, and BELIEVE me, I’m not just saying this for the sake of this post, I’m saying this because … More Week 2 Recap – BELIEVE | #WordoftheWeek2020
I wanted to do this so many times this year, but the procrastinator in me won. But today, I’m doing it. It’s the last Friday of 2019 and it’s time for one last introductions post for 2019 (or in my case, the only one this year, LOL). For those who are new, I used to … More #FRIDAYINTRODUCTIONS | 10 Things I’ve done since I last made a 10 Things List

Over the last few months, seeing my stories where I walk indoors or when I share my step-count at the end of the day, I’ve received many questions. How do you do it?How does it help in staying fit/losing weight?How much time does it take?How do you find the time?What band do you use to … More #GetYour10kOn | Part 1 – What you need when you walk 10,000 steps daily
