Simran Poonia's Startling 60 Kg Weight Loss Journey Had A Turning Poit On Her Trip To Bali
Simran Poonia has been inspiring the masses with her drastic weight loss journey. Weight gain, an increase in body weight, is often associated with a number of medical complications like an increase in muscle mass, fat deposits, excess fluids such as water or even several serious factors. At times, many health problems like hypothyroidism or kidney problems, PCOs or even medications, such as corticosteroids or antidepressants, can lead to weight gain. So, the need of the hour becomes a lifestyle change, incorporating physical activity and checking the surplus calorie consumption of the body. Amidst this, Simran Poonia, a health and beauty influencer, has been providing ample amount of inspiration to her fans with her drastic weight loss journey. Simran Poonia, who once weighed 130 kg, embarked on a significant weight loss journey, and keeps sharing powerful messages alongside sneak peeks into her transformation. Recently, in a heartfelt conversation with the Humans of Bombay, the health influencer revealed, 'I weighed 130 kgs. There was a time I stopped going to school. Not because I was lazy, but because I was too ashamed to wear a half-sleeve kurta. There was a time I faked fevers and headaches just so I wouldn't have to step out of the house." In a collaborative video posted on Instagram, she continued, 'There was a time where I tried to take my life, just because I couldn't handle it anymore. Growing up, I was a fat kid. I was mocked, stared at, and made fun of. Around the same time, I developed a skin infection and my weight hiked to 130 kg. That wasn't the end, I also got addicted to nicotine. I cried everyday, I hated my life." Interestingly, the turning point in Poonia's life came after she found herself struggling to climb stairs in Bali. 'But in 2020, something shifted. On a trip to Bali, when I couldn't climb a flight of stairs, I realised something needed to change," she stated. Afterwards, the beauty blogger went on to explain what all she did to lose weight from 130 kg. It involved her quitting sugar and smoking, and began working on her body. She incorporated daily walks into her lifestyle, which further boosted her confidence while helping her in the weight loss transformation. 'I didn't hide myself anymore. I started going on walks with my nanu, and slowly, I began falling in love with myself," she added. According to a report by ETimes, she initially walked 700 meters before getting exhausted and gradually made progress. Additionally, she focused on cardio, running and jogging, to efficiently achieve progress in her weight loss journey. At the end of the video, she gave a powerful message to her viewers and fans alike. 'I've still not healed completely. There are days when everything feels wrong, and some when listening to a song makes me the happiest! But I know this, the comeback is always stronger that the setback. And I think my time is here!" she concluded. First Published: May 01, 2025, 12:31 IST
