Namita Nayyar:
Initially, you started your fitness journey to lose your pregnancy belly weight (2017), with a lot of running and diet, but there was a frequent dropout. Can you share reasons for the same?
According to you why do women find it hard to lose belly fat?
Pearl Monteiro:
In 2017 august when I started running, I didn’t really focus on diet and a lot of inconsistency, but that happened because my daughter was 9 months and my husband was doing a 9-5 so I had to focus more on her.
