Mindy Kaling’s Health & Weight Loss Transformation

Kaling appeared so happy and confident during her Fashion Trust U.S. outing, and in recent years, she has undergone a transformation, losing approximately 40 pounds, Daily Mail reports. The star has also spoken candidly about her weight loss and how she started her journey to become healthier. 

“I’ve tried really hard to let go of this idea of losing weight for vanity reasons and really trying to think of how I can be healthy,” she told People in 2022. “And for me, healthy is working out, moving my body a lot, keeping hydrated, and then not having negative connotations around working out and making me feel like if I don’t do this, then I won’t be something else.”

In May 2023, she spoke about body confidence. “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,” Kaling told People. “I feel great.” She also addressed the interest in her changing body, and how she felt it was “flattering,” but also “sometimes it’s just a little much, so I don’t try to tune it in too much.” Her focus is instead on spending her “time and energy trying to be healthy.”
