1. She Has a Moderate Approach to Exercise

Ishita works out regularly, but has a moderate approach to fitness. “I don’t follow a strict schedule; I like changing my workout to keep it interesting,” she told Opening Doorz. “I love walking, so whenever I am travelling I walk out in the open. It makes me feel great. I also do Pilates, it’s my new favourite. I basically try and do some exercise everyday; either I walk in some park around me or go for a dance class or do Pilates or yoga. Sometimes I hit the gym too. One hour a day is good enough for me.”

2. Her Diet Trick? Cooking Her Own Meals

“I love food so it’s really difficult for me to control my eating habits but I try my best. I try to eat most of my meals at home or carry my home-cooked food. At home, we eat normal rice, lentils, vegetable curry sometimes chicken but yes we make it in very less oil and masala,” she dished to Opening Doorz. “I also avoid sugar in my tea/coffee and avoid aerated drinks as much as possible. I love Indian sweets so I do indulge in some sweet binging but in control.”

3. She Creates Her Own Plan for Her Body

Ishita does not believe that there is a one-size-fits-all approach to health. “You should understand your body and accordingly plan a diet. Do not blindly follow someone else’s diet because we all have different body types. For eg: wheat does not suit me so I prefer rice. It’s also bad to starve yourself,” she told Opening Doorz.

4. She Balances Diet and Exercise

Ishita strives to be strong and healthy – not skinny. “Our diet should be balanced with a proper dose of exercise to maintain a healthy body and healthy does not mean being skinny or thin. The aim should be to be fit and healthy,” Ishita told Opening Doorz.

5. She Hydrates

Ishita consumes a lot of liquids. “I drink a lot of green tea. That really helps. I also drink lots of water,” she told Opening Doorz. During the warmer months, she amps up hydration. “The first thing is, I do increase my hydration. I drink a lot of water all through the day and I have also increased my fruit intake for the summer. So, I have fresh fruit juices like watermelon every single day,” she added to Times of India.

6. This Is Her Guilty Pleasure

According to Dutta, her guilty pleasure comes in the form of a caffeinated drink. “My husband makes the most amazing cold coffee which is basically just vanilla ice cream and coffee shots. It has become a daily obsession and I’m gaining so much weight that it makes me feel guilty,” she told Hindustan Times.
