Weight loss story: Anshula Kapoor's diet and fitness secret REVEALED!
Celebrity fitness has been a source of great inspiration! In the past, many famous people have revealed their body transformation and shared their secrets to it. One such celeb is Anshula Kapoor, sister of Bollywood actor Arjun Kapoor and daughter of director-producer Boney Kapoor.
Calling her weight loss transformation 'a work in progress', last year, Anshula took to Instagram and shared everything around her fitness, diet and also revealed what it means for her to be 'healthy'.
'Dadi's ghar ka khana'
Anshula gave a glimpse into her diet and workout regime in a fun Ask-Me-Anything (AMA) session on Instagram.
On being asked about her favourite meal, she says 'Dadi's ghar ka khana.'
"Anything she makes is always the yummiest!” she revealed.
What she eats in a day (breakfast/lunch/dinner)?
In her Instagram story, she wrote, "If I am eating at home, then this is what a typical day looks like."
Breakfast: Egg and one toast with black coffee, or egg, and half avocado.
Post breakfast: Black coffee
Lunch: Typical Indian — 1-2 ragi rotis, 100-150 grams boneless chicken + big bowl of sabzi. “I am not picky about vegetables. Cook it Indian style and I will have just about anything,” she said. Or occasionally a quinoa or lentil-based pasta with a vegetable salad and some grilled chicken or chicken wings.
Snack: Depending on how hungry I am or if it’s pre or post workout, any of the following two things: A fruit with nuts or nut butter. An egg sandwich or vegetable sandwich, or some chicken and vegetable kebabs; or a protein shake with some nuts, or a thepla or 2.
Dinner: Roasted chicken or tandoori chicken with grilled vegetables on the side, or ragi rotis with boneless chicken cooked Indian style + a bowl of sabzi (Indian curry)
"I stay up late. So, if I get hungry post dinner, it’s usually a protein shake or a small protein-based snack. However, born with a sweet tooth, Anshula also revealed that she likes to dig into desserts like “most gooey chocolate cakes, the ones with the molten lava in the middle," she adds.
Workout routine
As far as her workout routine is concerned, Anshula shares that it is designed by her trainers Priyanka Mehta and Swapneel Hazare at Shield Fitness.
“The trainers keep changing my program but it’s basically a strength workout with some functional training thrown into the mix towards the end of each session. In a good week, 4 times a week we do strength training four times and 1-2 days, I end up doing cardio,” she says.
What 'being healthy' means to her
In one of her Instagram posts, Anshula wrote, "Note to self: Talk a little nicer to yourself today."
"For me today, being “healthy” means so much more than what I look like in the mirror. One of my first steps to becoming a healthier me was to acknowledge that mentally I wasn’t in the best place, and that I had to address what was eating me from the inside before I could even begin working on anything else," she adds.
She also talks about her mental health struggles and says that she had to undergo therapy. "It took so much therapy. So many tears. So much uncertainty. Fear. Setbacks. Discomfort. Self doubt. Then came the self realizations. Thus began the healing," she says.
The celeb child ends her note saying, "I am flawed, and still worthy "
