Pregnant Deepika Padukone dispels diet myths

Today, on July 17, Deepika Padukone, shared a post on Instagram about her daily diet. She posted a collage of desserts and snacks and wrote a long note to go with it, starting with her thoughts on the subject she wrote, "There seems to be a lot of misunderstanding around the word ‘Diet'. We often believe that ‘Diet' means to starve, to eat less and to eat all of the things we detest."

Writing about her definition of 'Diets', she penned, "What ‘Diet' really means is the total of all the food and drink consumed by an individual. The word actually comes from the Greek word "diaita," which means "way of life."

"I've always, for as long as I can remember, followed a ‘Balanced Diet'. And it is for me ‘a way of life'. I've never followed a diet that I cannot be consistent with or one that is a fad." She continued.

But does she eat her guilty pleasure foods? The actress answered and wrote, "Now, do I indulge? Of course, I do, as demonstrated above!😅 But it most certainly isn't my way of life."

"Ever heard the phrase ‘you are what you eat?' If there's one thing I've learnt (the hard-ish way) is that those words couldn't be truer. I hope you found today's post useful. For more of some of my simple self-care practices, stay tuned…🤍" She concluded.
