Kareena Kapoor recently launched a book "Don't Lose Your Mind Lose Your Weight", penned by dietician Rujuta Diwekar, who's responsible for making the actress achieve her size-zero figure.
The book is No 1 on the bestseller list and has already sold 10,000 copies. Rujuta says, "Kareena had predicted that it'd be a sellout! That's why I have dedicated this book to her." The book - 'Don't Lose Your Mind Lose Your Weight' - also carries a foreword by the actress. BUY THE BOOK NOW FOR ONLY Rs 119/- CASH ON DELIVERY.
Lose it, right
Talking about how she got the idea for the book, Rujuta says, "I once met a 24-year old girl who was planning to get married and wanted to lose weight.
She wore electric belts that gave her rectal bleeding. She also had lot of coffee with sweeteners, to kill hunger pangs. In the process, she got so dehydrated that for nine months, she didn't get her periods.
I wanted to write a book for people like her. To educate them about the right way to lose weight; in a healthy manner, without any side effects."
Finally, it was Kareena who made national headlines last year with anorexia and size-zero rumours, who suggested that Rujuta write a book.
Rujuta says, "Bebo told me there was so much media speculation about her diet that it was time to set the record straight. Essentially, it was about maintaining the body shape while keeping her energy levels high."
Rujuta took three months to complete the book. "From October to Deember 2008, I switched off my cell from 8 am to 8 pm and just wrote and wrote about all my experiences in my diary and laptop." She gifted the first copy of her book to Kareena. BUY NOW >>
Bebo: Diet stickler
Today, Rujuta prescribes diets for Kareena and her beau Saif Ali Khan. "Bebo follows everything strictly but Saif sometimes eats what he feeels like.
He asked me to help him, after seeing Bebo's weight loss and toned body."
Recently, Rujuta worked out a diet for Kareena in Delhi when she was shooting for Rensil D'Silva's film. "Kareena was having daal makhni, parathas and paneer tikkas.
Because of the Delhi smog, she got a throat infection but since she had been eating correctly, she recovered faster than she would have normally done.
I am amazed at Bebo's dedication. She is the most down-to-earth star I have met."
Excerpts from Kareena's foreword:
"Rujuta focuses on nutrition and not just calories. Amazingly, she helps you to keep the nutritional value of what you eat, as compared to how many calories you consume, high.
And still enjoy what you're eating! I have learnt what Rujuta means when she says, 'Be smart about food.' Now, thanks to her book, you can too. I'm certain you'll find it good enough to eat."
Excerpts from Don't Lose Your Mind Lose Your Weight
Anti-aging
To keep the face and body from aging, work at keeping body weight to optimum. To have a young face, you must not allow your body weight to go up from its optimum.
The second thing that you must do is include healthy fats in your diet, like nuts (including peanuts), cheese, ghee, paneer and fish.
Including fats not just provides your facial skin with the moisture and raw material that it needs to keep from wrinkling, but also helps you burn fat effectively there, by not allowing your body fat levels (body weight) to go up.
Coffee post dinner
Well, coffee for one, will come in the way of your sleep, you know that. It will interfere in the digestion, specifically in the absorption of minerals like iron and calcium.
And on low levels of calcium and iron, fat burning suffers (oh no!). Wait, one more, coffee makes your stomach acidic so you wake up bloated and constipated.
And now for the proof. When you wake up in the morning, brush your teeth, stand in front of a mirror, put your tongue out and look at its colour.
It will have a thick deposit. These are the toxins settled on your tongue after your night's sleep. Still want that coffee?
