Alia Bhatt Embraces the Sun and Sea in Stunning Vacation Snapshot

Alia Bhatt is heating up Thailand – in her swimsuit. In a new social media post, the British actress shows off her fantastic figure in a black and white bathing suit while dipping in the ocean. "If you didn't post a beach photo, did you even go on vacation? @anithailand thank you for the memories ….. and the tann ☀️🌻💛," she captioned the series of Instagram snaps. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

According to StyleCraze, Alia lost a lot of weight for a role by eating organic and healthy foods. "I was put on to a personal fitness instructor, who put me on a diet. So all I ate was vegetables and chicken and gave up everything that I loved to eat," she said. Generally, she eats everything in moderation and sticks to several small meals per day, each with a source of protein, healthy fats, veggies, fruits, and fresh fruit juices in her diet. "I make it a point to have eight meals a day. That way, I can limit my portion sizes and food gets digested easily. This diet has worked for me," she said.

Here is what Alia eats in a day:

Breakfast: A hot cup of herbal tea or coffee without sugar + a bowl of vegetable poha or an egg white sandwich.

Mid-Morning: A bowl of fruit (mostly papaya) or one idli with a bowl of sambar.

Lunch: 1 roti without ghee + lots of vegetables + 1 cup daal + curd or vegetable quinoa with chicken

Evening Snack: A cup of sugar-free tea or coffee + 1 one idli with a bowl of sambar

Dinner: 1 roti without ghee + a bowl of vegetables + 1 cup daal and occasionally a grilled chicken breast.

On her recent trip Alia went jet skiing, sharing a photo. According to Health Fitness Revolution, the average 150-pound rider will burn a surprising 238 calories during a half-hour ride. The sport is also great for cardiovascular endurance.

Another healthy habit Alia brought on vacation with her? Reading. In one of the recent snaps she holds a book. One Harvard study published in Social Science & Medicine found that people who read books regularly had a 20% lower risk of dying over the next 12 years than those who weren't readers or who read periodicals.

Alia is committed to fitness, working with a trainer six days a week. She even exercised at the resort's gym on her vacation in Thailand. Yoga, Pilates, and strength training are some of her favorite workouts. According to the Mayo Clinic, strength and weight training help reduce body fat, preserve and increase lean muscle mass, and burn calories more efficiently. Strength training may also help you:

• Develop strong bones
• Manage your weight
• Enhance your quality of life
• Manage chronic conditions
• Sharpen your thinking skills
