While sharing a video of her gym routine, Sania credited her weight loss to a strict exercise schedule.
In her Instagram post, she said that people asked her several times as to how she lost weight. Her post read, “I put on 23 kilos when I was pregnant and have managed to lose 26 in 4 months or so .. with a lot of hard work, discipline and dedication. I read messages from women all the time as to how they find it so difficult to come back to ‘normalcy’ after childbirth. They don’t take care of themselves or don’t find the motivation or inspiration. Ladies, I want to say, if I can do it, then anyone else can too. Believe me that one hour or 2 hours a day to yourself will do wonders to you physically but so much mentally as well. P.S. this is me after losing a bit of weight already after Izhaan was born .. roughly two and a half months after I delivered.”
