Reducing body weight is never an easy task. It requires a healthy balance of lifestyle changes, including a balanced diet, regular exercise, adequate sleep, and overall discipline. When people who have struggled with excess weight manage to shed it, those around them are often left stunned, asking, “How did you do it?”. Social media is full of such transformation photos and videos, sparking such endless questions and admiration in the comments section.
Now, actor Khushbu Sundar has joined that list. She has shared a family photo on her social media page, and the change in her appearance, along with that of her two daughters, has left people in awe. Unlike the comments that used to appear when Khushbu posted pictures of her daughters earlier, the latest reactions are filled with amazement. Many wonder how the mother and her daughters have become so much slimmer, with some even calling it an `impossible transformation.’ Comparisons with older family photos posted by Khushbu have only fuelled the buzz, with some netizens remarking that the trio now look almost unrecognisable.
What helped her transformation?
Khushbu’s own weight-loss journey had already gone viral a few months ago. Photos of the actor, who shed around 20 kilos and looks younger and healthier than ever, have taken over social media. For many who believed that crossing 40 meant deteriorating health and no real chance at weight control, Khushbu’s transformation at 54 came as a revelation. Her change is attributed to a disciplined lifestyle, marked by diet choices and regular exercise, including yoga. The comments to the photo also stated that her transformation had since become an inspiration to many.
Yet, weight loss remains surrounded by myths. Some still believe that starving is the way to shed weight, that fat can be burned solely through cardio exercises or that the body cannot be transformed with age. These are far from true.
Why starvation won’t work
Starvation may cause weight loss, but it can lead to severe health deterioration. The body requires a complete and balanced diet for sustainable results. Exercise, too, comes in many forms, such as yoga, Zumba, dance, and others, all of which help improve health. It’s a misconception that only cardio delivers results. Equally important is weight training. Experts emphasise that those above 30 must engage in weight training to preserve muscles and maintain overall strength. No matter your age, determination makes weight loss possible.
