Actor Jyotika said weight management was 'always a struggle' for her, despite 'heavy workouts and endless diets'. Here's how 'it finally happened'.

In October 2024, Vidya Balan broke silence over her drastic weight loss, and revealed her new diet that helped her shed extra kilos without hitting the gym. Now, actor Jyotika, in an Instagram post from March 22, has thanked Vidya for introducing her to the team of nutritionists and fitness experts that ultimately kickstarted her own weight loss journey. She revealed having lost '9 kg weight loss in just 3 months' by changing her diet and fitness mantra, just like Vidya did. Also read | Inspired by Vidya Balan's weight loss transformation?

Jyotika opens up about her weight loss journey

In her caption, alongside pictures of herself with her trainer and team of Chennai-based nutritional group, Amura Health, Jyotika wrote, “Thank you, Amura, for the 9 kg weight loss in just 3 months and for helping me rediscover my inner self! You all are just magical.”

Check out her post:

‘I learned about my gut, inflammatory foods’

And how exactly did she lose the extra weight? Jyoti shared, “I learned about my gut, digestion, inflammatory foods and food balancing. More importantly, I understood its impact on my well-being and moods while infusing a feeling of positivity. As a result, I feel extremely energised and confident as a person today.”

‘A healthy life is about balance’

Jyotika reflected on how weight training was particularly important for women's health and thanked her trainer. She further said, “A healthy life is about balance; while weight loss and diets are important, strength cannot take a backseat. Weight training is the key to an independent future, especially for women. I cannot thank my trainer Mahesh enough for teaching me that strength is equally important and proving to me that age is just a number. Healing our inner selves, self love and de-stressing should be our main goal – weight loss will automatically follow.”

The actor concluded, “Understanding my body and its functioning and combining exercises with it has maximum impact on my experience.”

When Vidya Balan spoke about weight loss

Vidya Balan lost drastic weight last year through her diet and 'no exercise' routine. In an October 2024 interview with Galatta India, the actor opened up about her body image after all the buzz around her recent weight loss. She also touched on growing up with constant judgment around her body and being a 'fat girl' and how she’s reached a point where she no longer cares.
