Parineeti Chopra’s Diet And Fitness Secrets That Led To Her Incredible Weight Loss

Darpan News Desk IANS, 14 Jul, 2016 02:46 PM
    Not many actors openly admit to being overweight, but Parineeti Chopra not only accepts it but even talks openly about feeling unfit and overweight. 
     
    "BEFORE... All my life, I have struggled with how I look, how I feel, and how people looked at me. I was constantly made fun of, but the person I was, I generously laughed with them. Today, many people ask me what triggered the weight loss, did I give in to the 'Bollywood pressure'?
     
    To that I say - thank god I became an actor and had that pressure! I am able to achieve what I couldn't achieve otherwise. I feel more confident, I feel at peace, and I feel proud!", Parineeti wrote on her Instagram account, after losing oodles of weight. She added, "Like I always say - if I could do it. So can you".
     
     

    BEFORE .. All my life, I have struggled with how I look, how I feel, and how people looked at me. I was constantly made fun of, but the person I was, I generously laughed with them. Today, many people ask me what triggered the weight loss, did I give in to the "bollywood pressure"? To that I say - thank god I became an actor and had that pressure! I am able to achieve what I couldn't achieve otherwise. I feel more confident, I feel at peace, and I feel proud! Girls and women meet me all around the world, at airports, events, on the street; they hold my hand, hug me, and tell me their struggles and how I changed their lives. They show me their wallpapers, their wallets, and its all pictures of me!! They look at those pictures and want to make that change in their own lives. They look at my Built That Way campaign and have stuck it to their walls. I have seen women tear up and tell me I changed their life. Post delivery weight, teenage obesity, they are fighting it, and I am their inspiration. As an actor, There is no bigger achievement for me. I am glad to be a part of your life in this way. So thank you everyone. Thank You for making me feel loved. Like I always say - if I could do it. So can you. And I am always there for all of you .... Lots of love....

    Losing weight was not easy for Parineeti, considering her love for food. "I was always thinking about food. So, it took a lot of mental strength to lose all the extra weight", Parineeti revealed. "I thought I would never be able to give up pizza, but I did. I eat everything in limited portions now, but I make it a point to fulfill my cravings"

    "If I indulge in fatty food, I balance it out by either eating a light meal for dinner or burning more calories the next day." Parineeti says that she gains weight really fast, due to her poor metabolism. 
     
    Even when she was trying to eat healthy, she was putting on weight. So she got tested for food allergies at an Australian Health Center, and discovered which foods suit her and which don't. 
     
     
    She drinks lots of water to stay hydrated, and her ideal breakfast includes brown bread with butter, 2 egg-whites (no yolk), 1 glass of sugar-free milk, fruit juice (occasionally). She typically eats a salad and brown rice with dal and vegetables for lunch and low fat foods with less oil around 7-8 pm for dinner, plus 1 glass of sugar-free milk.
    On 28th June 2016, the Ishaqzaade actress tweeted, "I want to go on a trip, for a month, just to eat!!!" So, what does the actress love to feast on (other than pizza of course)? She's a big fan of Pooja Dhingra's Le15 Patisserie in Colaba, and recently had an amazing meal at The Reef House, Palm Cove in Queensland, Australia
