From fat to fit- all fitness enthusiasts go through these 4 words like a gospel! From going to bed every night thinking that tomorrow is going to be a new day, we will avoid junk food and say ‘no to carbs’, we fall weak on our knees when we see glimpses of gooey cheeseburgers, chole bhature or steaming hot biryani. And the next step? Multiple searches on food apps begin! But if we go back to the point when we said ‘sleeping with a mission’ and adhere to it, no matter how badly cheese tempts us, we can actually hold the phrase ‘fat to fit' true! And if you don’t believe us, here’s Ram Kapoor telling us how to channel our motivation in the right way.

It was on July 10, 2019, when a picture shared by Ram Kapoor’s wife, Gautami Kapoor had created major headlines! And why wouldn’t it? An actor, who was often named under the list of amazing ‘plus-size’ stars, created history when we saw his unbelievable transformation! Sharing a ‘fat to fit’ juxtaposition of two images side by side, a super-proud Gautami Kapoor wrote, “Fat to fab!!!!!!! Way to go. So so proud.” And we were completely blown off by his salt and peppery good looks. Here’s a picture of the same:
And ever since, Ram Kapoor and Gautami Kapoor have been flooded with questions in interviews about his drastic weight loss. Answering to many people’s question which suggested that Ram might probably have gone under the knife for his humongous weight loss, his wife Gautami revealed it all in an interview with The Economic Times. She shared, “Fitness is something very personal. No one can push or force the other into fitness. With Ram, when he decided to do it, he went for it. He is a foodie so for him to lose weight and control his diet, is a big thing. He has taken a long time to lose all the weight. He has not supplemented and it is going fit completely in a natural way. He has not gone undergone any surgery as people feel and has opted for the natural way. Ram still feels that he has just come halfway through and will take another 6 months to achieve his goals and reduce more weight and become almost half the size that he is now.”
Gautami Kapoor had further added, “Ram says that fitness is an addiction and now that he has reached up to this level, he wants to achieve it all.” Not just hubby, Ram Kapoor, Gautami Kapoor had also thrown light about her own fitness regime She added, “I have been working out since younger days and it is a part of my life. I eat everything and have a great appetite but it is all disciplined. I have been into fitness from the past 20-25 years and I have been exercising from the age of 14. I have always done exercises without fail and have always been a fitness freak. Fitness for me is my lifestyle. If I don't work out, I will go into depression I feel. At the time of both my pregnancies, I was on my feet, working till the last day.” (Must Read: Madhurima Tuli And Her Ex-Beau Vishal Aditya Singh Had Another Fight On The Sets Of Nach Baliye 9)

In yet another interview with the IANS, Ram Kapoor had stated that it was not due to his professional requirement he lost a huge mass of weight but due to his own determination and personal choice. The Kasam Se actor had stated, “I’m pretty happy with my physique for my career. But it’s not healthy to be like this. I wish to be healthier, maybe lose some weight.
