So my husband at that time took a promise from me to lose weight. Although it was very difficult for me to lose weight within 1 month because I had only one month left for the marriage. As he knew I never broke my promise.

Why you made the promise

So I made a promise to lose weight so that I could wear that dress on the marriage day. I started to wake up at wee hours. Initially, it was very difficult for me to get up so early but as I had a promise with my husband so I started to do some sort of exercises and I did skipping and relied more on raw vegetables and I totally avoided junk food.

Was the promise easy to achieve

With continuous labor, I was able to put off 15 kg weight within 1 month and my husband really appreciated my efforts and with the motivation and support of my husband I was able to wear that dress, and when I wore that people really appreciated me. So I kept my word that I had with my husband. I think one must keep their words if one makes.
