Mindy Kaling Embraces Lifestyle Changes
Part of the confidence Kaling had onstage may be due to her weight loss, and her journey to becoming healthier is something she has spoken about publicly multiple times. The most recent time was on May 27, when she appeared on “The View” and discussed her lifestyle changes. “I think we all think it’s weird when public figures lose weight because we want this perfectly consistent narrative of their lives,” Kaling said, People reports.
She continued, “But I have wanted to lose weight since I was 12 years old. I’ve been writing jokes about diet and body image for 20 years now. So when people are surprised or shocked that I wanted to lose weight, I’m like, ‘Wait, how is this new? This has been part of my personality since the Clinton administration!’ ”
She acknowledged that fans can sometimes have strong reactions to celebrities altering their appearance. “When we see, especially these days, someone that we’re used to a certain way look completely different, I think we feel betrayed,” she shared. She then spoke about her health and fitness journey, noting that she regularly meets with a trainer and watches her diet.
She also made a powerful comment on her mortality and how she needs to be in better health for her children. “But also, in the same interview, I said that I’m 46. I’m a single mom of three kids,” Kaling said. “My mom died young of cancer, and both my parents had diabetes. … I need to live. I need to live, and the kids need me.”
