Healthy habits are the key.

'I'm feeling really confident in my body these days, which is not something that I've been able to say for my whole life, unfortunately,' Mindy Kaling, who is 43 and has two children, recently told People.

The actress and screenwriter's transformation is quite impressive. PageSix reported earlier this year that the Office star had lost 40 pounds over the past several years.

Kaling's appearance at the 2023 Oscars in a gorgeous Vera Wang gown sent fans and the media into a frenzy, generating headlines and rumours about how the celebrity had managed to shed so much weight.

As it turns out, the comedian's biggest secret is no secret at all: it's health and fitness. Ahead of the launch of her Mindy x Andie swimsuit collection, Kaling sat down with People to talk about the habits that enabled her stunning weight loss transformation and describe her exercise routine. Here are her key tricks:

  • 20 Miles of either running or hiking per week
  • Weight lifting with a trainer
  • Physical activity
  • Eating in moderation
  • Staying hydrated
  • Healthy and positive mindset

The Never Have I Ever and The Sex Lives of College Girls creator said that she starts her day in a fitness outfit and takes every opportunity to work out or move her body whenever possible. Her main secret is a love for running and hiking, and that's exactly what she does. Kaling has committed to running and/or hiking 20 miles a week and makes sure she always hits that goal.

When it comes to her eating habits, Mindy hasn't changed those too much and stays away from unhealthy diets. Eating in moderation and staying hydrated is enough for her. Kaling's most important and difficult task was changing her mindset about losing weight. Where she once viewed exercise as self-inflicted torture, she now enjoys her routine and tries to think healthily.

Fans have commented that Kaling really looks healthy in a very natural way rather than jacked beyond imagination, as is the case for some other celebs. Her routine feels relatable and doable, which sets a great example for all of her followers out there.

'It’s good to see famous people with relatable fitness lifestyles as opposed to insane bulks and cuts and 12 packs and 3 hours in the gym every day,' one of her fans commented on the interview.
