Ileana D’cruz Shares Health, Diet and Fitness Tips to her Fans

Bollywood newcomer Ileana D’Cruz is the new sensation amongst fitness freaks. Admired for her role in latest Bollywood flick ‘Barfi’ she is also getting a lot of attention for her curvacious hot body. Ileana D’Cruz asks, “Do I look like I’m on a diet? The trick is to eat in moderation. I phase out the sweet treats; once every few months.” D’Cruz lost six kilos in two years. “Honestly, I started exercising only two years ago. I tried on a pair of shorts one day, and my dad pointed to the cellulite. That hurt my ego”. Ahh so that’s the inspiration behind loosing extra flab. Fitness Mantra of Ileana D’Cruz for super hot body Fitness is: I don’t complicate exercise. Do something you enjoy. Join a dance class, run by the beach, skip in your balcony. I have an aversion to gyms. I find them claustrophobic, and get dizzy on a treadmill. Living in Goa made it easy to run by the beach; four kilometres, three days a week for three months. And the results were instant. I discovered that running was liberating. It eases your mind, and helps you bust stress. For me, interval training worked. I would sprint, then slow jog, then sprint again. The short high energy bursts accelerated calorie burning. On the first day on the sets of Barfi!, Ranbir (Kapoor) said I was the tiniest actress he had worked with. Producers are now suggesting I put on some weight, but I am comfortable with my body. Growing up: I was a chubby child, but never fat. My siblings and I were always fit. I think it’s because we were encouraged to climb stairs, wash cars, and help with housework. People underestimate how strenuous domestic chores can be. Get on all fours and try mopping the floor. It’s one hell of a workout. I do it when my maid doesn’t turn up. Living with injury: I injured my knee in 2011 while shooting for Nanban, a Tamil film. It was during a song sequence that I had to bang my knee on the floor. I pulled a thigh muscle. While the thigh healed, my knee was busted. It keeps acting up, so I can’t run for more than three kilometres twice a week. Exercise of choice: Running also gifts you chiselled cheekbones, which don’t always look good on screen. So, I alternate running with other exercises. I swim twice a week, and can manage 100 laps. I alternate between the breast, back and butterfly stroke. The combination helps tone my chest, inner thighs, shoulders, buttocks and arms. I am a bit of a cheat. My physiotherapist has advised me not to stress my knee, but I always carry a skipping rope on outdoor shoots. Diet rules: I love to eat. If I am craving cake, I’ll have it. But I make sure I don’t overdo it. Sugar can boomerang in a bad way. I have four to five small meals a day to keep my metabolism going. I stay away from burgers and pizzas. On my plate: I don’t believe in crash dieting. I start my day with a big breakfast — a fruit juice followed by two poached eggs with two slices of whole wheat bread (toasted), an hour later. I finish it with coffee with a hint of milk. Between lunch and breakfast, I sip on coconut water or sweet lime juice. Lunch is at 1 pm and includes two chapatis, chicken or fish, and a vegetable such as cauliflower. And of course, there’s daal. I’m not fond of rice. In the evening, I have tea and a khari biscuit. Dinner is same as lunch. My mom cooks most of the time; I’m only good at baking. The first thing I have to do once I move to Mumbai is find a good cook. I wish my mum could move too, but she has three other kids to look after. Cravings: Rasagullas, rasmalai and dark chocolate. They were the reason behind my sudden weight gain two years ago. I was shooting for a film in the south, and there was this amazing mithaiwala close to the hotel where we were put up. Every evening, my mum and I would walk down and buy a box of assorted mithai. The body I admire: Deepika (Padukone) looked fabulous in Cocktail. That she has added some curves makes her look all the more gorgeous. Weaknesses: None. I am a toughie. Please share some hair-care tips with our readers. A lot of people say that oiling your hair is good, and it is. You should oil your hair as much as you can. Maintaining a really good diet is also important and many people don’t realize that and of course, not stressing. I’ve seen the result that stress can do to your hair and trust me, it’s horrible. What kind of diet do you follow? As of now, I’m on a high protein diet because I’ve been trying my best to tone up as much as possible. So I’ve been having lots of fish, lots of vegetables, loads of salads and fruits. And it has made a huge difference to my hair as well. It has been enhancing it even more. What is your fitness routine? I do a lot of pilates. It’s something that really works for me. Unfortunately, I cannot run since I have a really bad knee so I try and walk as much as possible, which is extremely good. People underestimate how good walking is. I walk for about forty minutes every night at Joggers Park. I do around ten rounds It feels fabulous. What is your style mantra? I’m extremely simplistic when it comes to styling. I don’t like going overboard. I like to keep it simple and clean cut. I don’t think I carry off the complicated couture pieces. But I like keeping it sophisticated and classy and black is one of my favourite colours. Which designer labels do you prefer to sport? Dolce & Gabbana is one brand that fits me really well. It’s so made for my body type. It’s one brand that I really like. I did not works out at gym, I swim twice a week, and can manage 100 laps. I alternate between the breast, back and butterfly stroke. The combination helps tone my chest, inner thighs, shoulders, buttocks and arms. I runs four kilometers, three days a week for three months. And the results were instant.
