Being fat is considered no less than a crime in the world that we are living in. Oversized people get scrutinized and often criticized for their hefty appearance. As we come across many inspiring weight transformations, the IPS Vivek Raj Singh Kukrele’s metamorphosis image is now going viral, leaving us highly determined to stay fit.
IPS Kukrele said that he stopped weighing himself after class 8 when he weighed 88 kg. He checked his weight many years later only to see the shocking number on the scale. He said he was 134 kgs when he joined National Police Academy for training. But the training in the academy helped him shed all those extra kilos.“46 weeks of rigorous training of NPA made me Pass out with the weight of 104 Kg, which was a big achievement for me,” Kukrele said.
But just like many, Kukrele’s weight loss journey also stalled in his initial days of service. He said, “During earlier days of service, serving in difficult Naxal areas of Bihar made me gain weight again and I reached up to 138 Kg.” He said changing his eating habit played a key role to lose weight. “Basically I am a foodie and I used to eat a lot. ‘Khana fikna nahi chahiye’ (Food should not be wasted) has been always my motto, eating without application of mind and eating even when I was full was the culprit for weight gain.”
Kukrele said he started walking during one of his assignments and an app called ‘Step Set Go’ that he still uses helped him maintain consistency. Both, altered eating habits and walking, helped him tremendously to shed some weight. His weight loss also motivated him to opt for more “mindful eating” and a healthy diet. Kukrele said, “Gradual weight reduction made me start strength training and mindful eating that further boosted weight reduction. Last few months, I started a quantified diet which is helping me ton my body better and give a better shape. I have reduced 43 kg till now and I just want to maintain with better body shape.”
This viral story that gained popularity in a jiff tells us how Kukrele is certainly drawing inspiration among the youth. His consistency and dedication paid off. With his story, one thing is clear -Eating nutritiously in a calorie deficit and moving more should be a top priority.
