Neha Dhupia In Workout Gear Lost Over 50 Pounds—Here’s How

Indian actress and model Neha Dhupia is opening up about her 50 pound weight loss in a new social media post. Dhupia, 43, shared before and after pictures of herself to highlight the change, with the ‘after’ picture showing her sitting on a yoga mat in blue workout gear. “Let me start by saying it wasn't easy... living with the weight or trying to shed it. Post both my pregnancies the weight gain or living in a larger body that I wasn’t used to was extremely tough to come to terms with. To say that I have reached my optimum best , I’d say I’m far far away but to say I have given my best till now… I sure have. I feel better, fitter and far more confident than I ever did. As a mother of two and an actor, entrepreneur and runner I couldn’t be happier sharing this with everyone.” she captioned the post. Here’s how the star stays fit, happy, and healthy.

1. Daily Workouts

Dhupia arranges her workouts around her children’s schedule. “My fitness routine post motherhood is more scheduled,” she told Indian Express. “Earlier, I used to enjoy very early morning walks or a late night run, but now I cannot do that as I have to finish my yoga or run before my little one wakes up, and she usually wakes up around 8. So, I have to wake up a little earlier to finish my exercises. If I must squeeze in another workout, it is usually in the afternoon, so I time it around her nap time.”

2. Overhauled Diet

Dhupia cut out sugar and gluten, and started eating an early dinner to lose weight. “I believe in a combination of home-cooked meals and healthy snacks,” she told Indian Express. “I stick to healthy home-cooked meals. I look at food differently now. For me, it’s nutrition first and then the taste factor. We are what we eat and how healthy we feel after all!”

3. Two Trainers

Dhupia used two personal trainers to kickstart her weight loss. “Day 1 of my journey started over a year and a few months ago with a sense of belief and self love that hey… come on you can do it too. I called two of my most favorite trainers … my run coach @mirandabrinston and my yoga sir @rohitflowyoga and without any questions asked a day later I was training with both alternatively and somewhere I say hope,” she says in her caption.

4. Travel Workouts

Dhupia tries to squeeze in a workout even on busy days. “It would be a quick online yoga session, and if I do not have time at all, I usually pack in stairs, I go up and down the stairs for 40 minutes wherever I am staying,” she told Indian Express. “And if I don’t have time for that as well, so just quick 2,000 skips, side leg raises, and some ab crunches.”

5. Working Through the Pain

Dhupia says the weight loss was not easy but she couldn’t be happier with the results. “I felt the aches, the pains the need to show up, the inability in my body to reach the optimum I had left it at, the fatigue which is hard to put down in words between two babies, work, a home that needs you 24 x 7 and of course no shift in the way I looked. The truth is there are no shortcuts, there is no easy way around it , there is also no rocket science … stay consistent, work hard and show up especially on the days you don’t feel like it at all! If you are feeling like I was a year and a half ago and feel you need to do something about it… please do! Get up, get out, work out and love yourself! Cause there’s just one you!” she captioned the post.

1. She Gained Weight Due to IVF

Kashmera explained to The Times of India that she gained weight when undergoing IVF. “I stopped looking after myself,” she admitted. She started eating “anything and at odd times” and failing to exercise. “The entire focus got shifted,” she continued. She ignored herself until January 2020, when she stepped on the scale and realized she had put on over 26 pounds.

2. She Worked with a Nutritionist

Kashmera revealed that her IVF doctor put her in touch with a nutritionist in early January 2020. “So, I started my diet and workout regime,” she continued. During the lockdown she fell into a depression and started losing even more weight. She even started to eat less in fear that she would run out of food due to supply chain issues.

3. Cooking Helped Her Lose Weight

Kashmera found a new hobby during the pandemic. “I started cooking during the lockdown which I have never done. I started cooking healthy food and Krushna started losing weight because of me,” she said about her husband. “I began eating healthy food, smaller portions and suddenly in October I checked my weight.” She discovered she had lost 24 pounds. “I didn't even realise that I had lost so much weight because I did not step out of the house and wore clothes which I wear at home like shorts, t-shirts. We all were shocked.” She went on to lose over four more pounds.

4. It’s All About Discipline

Kashmera believes her weight loss all boiled down to setting goals and actively achieving them. “I realised that discipline is everything,” she explained.

5. The Buddy System Also Helped Her

Kashmera maintains that her weight loss journey motivated her husband as well. “I told him very clearly to eat whatever you want to eat at night, but during the day you will eat what I give you,” she said. As a result, he lost over 15 pounds.

Heather Rae El Moussa is opening up about her post-pregnancy workout. In a new social media post the Selling Sunset star shows off her amazing body-after-baby and reveals the program she followed to get back into shape the healthy way. “Let’s talk about my postpartum body….” she started the Instagram caption. Here is everything you need to know about how the reality star got her body back without going to extremes and training with Paulina Hefferan.

1. Her Postpartum Workout Journey “Wasn’t Easy”

Heather starts by explaining that her postpartum workout journey “definitely wasn’t ‘easy’ and didn’t go as expected,” she writes. “I thought I was going to bounce back within 9 weeks!! HUGE LOL but the reality of being a mom to a newborn, breastfeeding, 2 kids, balancing my hormones, my work, my marriage and my life set in.”

2. She Found a New Way to Workout at Home with Paulina Hefferan

She reveals that she “didn’t want to leave the house and leave Tristan to workout,” so she knew she needed to change the way she worked out and what fit for her “new” life. “It was hard guys, I felt weak, old & not super motivated. I had never been someone who lifted weights or did at-home workouts until I met @paulinastein. It was a complete change for me but I lost 25 pounds, leaned out & got my strength back while working out with Paulina.” She adds that the workouts are “accessible and affordable.”

3. She Lost 25 Pounds

“Believe it or not, you guys, I lost 25 pounds postpartum and I did it straight from my living room using two 10 pound dumbbells, a mat, sometimes some ankle weights, sometimes some bands,” she continues in the video.

4. Paulina Helped Her Feel “Really Comfortable”

“Transforming your body after a baby or any time in your life is not easy. It takes a lot of discipline. It takes a lot of structure. It takes someone pushing you Sometimes, especially if you're like me. After I had Tristan, I thought, okay, I'll be back at the gym. I'll be back in hot yoga. I'm going to get my body back in nine weeks. Reality set in, and that did not happen. I don't think I really started working out until I met Paulina. She made me just feel really comfortable. She made me feel like this is a slow journey. This is my journey. I don't need to compare myself to anyone else,” she says.

5. She Worked Out While Tristan Was Napping and Even with Him

She adds that she was able to get the exercises in, even with her baby, because Paulina is “also a mom,” and the fact that I can do it from my home, I can incorporate Tristan, I can do it while he's napping, made me say yes and made me feel like, you know what? I can do this. Working out with her changed my life. I am so proud of myself.”

6. Her Body Was “Back” After Four Months

“I started really noticing that, wow, my body is back around eight and a half months postpartum, and I had started working out with Paulina when I was about four and a half months postpartum. Now that she has this app on days, I can't work out with her when I'm traveling, I can use her app, could work alongside with her, so it really makes you want to do it because she's doing it with you,” she concludes.

7. Walking and Weight Lifting

On Paulina’s Instagram page, she reveals that “lifting weights” and “walking 8,000 to 10,000 steps per day” along with a healthy diet is the perfect equation for weight loss.

3. She Loves Snacking On Nuts

She tries to snack on “more plant-based proteins,” she explained to Indian Express. “I have found that California Pistachios is my favorite option. It’s rich in antioxidants and nutrients and is very tasty. We all find ourselves at some point in the day, where we just want to snack on something. The trick here, instead of picking up a packet of junk food, I have started making conscious changes when it comes to my snacking moments. For example, I had no clue, but 30 California Pistachios are only about 100 calories. And it is a satisfying snack.”

4. She Does Quick Workouts

Neha starts the day with hydration. “I wake up to a big glass of luke warm water followed by some tea or coffee. I used to be a big coffee drinker but I am trying to get rid of that addiction,” she told Pinkvilla.

How does the Indian actress, 41, approach health and wellness? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.

1. When Her Career Got Busy, She Gained Weight

"I was extremely slim when I first entered the industry. I would always maintain myself and regularly go to the gym,” she said, per The Sun. "But I had work commitments and outdoor shoots, for which I had to shoot daily when I was doing Bhojpuri films. I couldn't properly maintain my diet."

2. She Slimmed Down After Leaving Bigg Boss House

After leaving the Bigg Boss house Monalisa lost a whopping 22 pounds. "When I did Bigg Boss 10, I lost 10 kg after coming out of the house. That was superb. I wonder how I lost so much weight,” she said. "It was an experience of a lifetime being in the Bigg Boss house. After doing that reality show, I got a lot of love and became popular all over India. I got name and fame. It was such a happy moment for me."

3. She Works Out with Her Husband

Monalisa lost another 15 pounds by working out with her husband Vikrant. "I did planks, I watched videos on the internet and did cardio for 45 minutes to 1 hour regularly,” she said. "We would workout every day.”

4. She Also Did Yoga and Meditation

"I did yoga, meditation regularly,” she added. Harvard Health explains why you should consider doing yoga. “Researchers found that people who practiced yoga for at least 30 minutes once a week for at least four years, gained less weight during middle adulthood,” they said. “People who were overweight actually lost weight. Overall, those who practiced yoga had lower body mass indexes (BMIs) compared with those who did not practice yoga. Researchers attributed this to mindfulness. Mindful eating can lead to a more positive relationship with food and eating.”

5. She Followed a “Strict Diet"

“I followed a strict diet to keep my immunity strong and lose weight also,” she added. One of her main tactics is cooking meals at home. “I am still continuing my diet, and haven't stopped. I feel 70 percent of it is diet and 30 percent exercise."
