Kareena, who lost all her extra flab that she gained during pregnancy, revealed that losing weight after giving birth is hard work and can take a long time. She said, “People think I did it fast but it took me an entire year, which is very normal. It’s a combination of the right food, sleep, and exercise. I am glad that the nights when I sleep early, I just wake up as a different human being. I wake up feeling a few inches slimmer. The days when I am working late, I feel bloated and irritable.”

During a 48 minutes live session on Facebook, Kareena along with Saif and Rujuta busted various myths and asked everyone to focus on being fit and healthy instead of being thin or skinny. “Every girl wants to be thin, but I don’t think it is only about that. It’s a holistic approach to a lifestyle, which I like to take. It is not about being skinny but being fit,” said Kareena.

The actress further revealed how she stays fit with a local home cooked meals. She said, “The ultimate source of protein and satisfaction comes from a bowl of rice and dal. It’s all about how much you are going to eat. A good dal is very tough to make. And I add a lot of ghee in it. Sometimes, we have khichdi for dinner which I actually look forward to because that’s my comfort food.” Kareena is also very particular about what Taimur eats. “He eats only home-cooked food. Even when he goes to birthday parties, he is not allowed to eat outside. He likes khichdi, idli, dosa, and healthy home-cooked food,” she added.

Saif, who will be turning 50 soon, is happy that he doesn’t have to starve to lose weight as he is following somebody sensible like Rujuta. “I love having fried poppadom with my meals. A lot of people wouldn’t believe me when I say this. I was shooting with Kangana once and she couldn’t believe what I was eating. I think she saw me eating bread and cheese in the afternoon,” he revealed.

The beautiful couple believes in eating local and practicing portion control. Apart from discussing their daily food habits, they also discussed a few important lifestyle changes which are mandatory! They believe that to be fit and fine, one should say ‘NO’ to- sedentary lifestyle, late nights, drinking and smoking.

Rujuta Diwekar Revealed Saif-Kareena Diet Chart

The celebrity nutritionist Rujuta Diwekar has shared some excerpts of the conversation on her social media which revealed the secret behind Kareena’s fit and gorgeous looks. It reads-

The ABCD of the talk with Kareena and Saif –

Aspire – to be healthy and fit, not thin or skinny. Health is about being in harmony with yourself and your surroundings. Eat local and think global is the mantra here. So in the summer season, this is what Kareena is having-

-Mango, jamun, karvand

-Kokum sherbet, Limbu sherbet, lemon grass chai

-Dahi rice with papad, Jowar or Nachni bhakri with fresh, seasonal sabzis cooked in traditional style —

Balance – Don’t be a bore by being rigid with your diet but don’t let yourself go either. A good diet is a timeless concept, it isn’t something that starves you and then lets you feast as a reward for showing the will power to deprive yourself of food. Instead, it teaches you to eat the traditional delicacies, encourages you to chew slowly and makes you feel content just before you feel full.

Consistency – aim for that with your exercise program more than intensity. A good diet helps you back yourself mentally. On a day that you are not up to exercise, don’t bunk the gym, show up and train at 50% of your intensity. That way you will feel good about yourself for the rest of the day, instead of feeling guilty about skipping your workout.

Discipline – at the end of the day that is what it all boils down to. Food, exercise, sleep, every cog in the wheel of life matters and there are no quick fixes. As Saif said, there is nothing boring about being healthy and nothing sexy about having a heart attack. Broccoli is not going to magically save you from the excesses of last night, nor are green smoothies or soups in the name of detox going to undo the gluttony committed during a holiday, party, etc.

Essentially, a good diet paves way for a journey of self-discovery, allows you to feel light and happy through the day and ensures restful sleep in the night.
