‘Kareena Kapoor is on the same diet since 2007,' reveals dietician Rujuta Diwekar: ‘She has the same dinner four-five times a week'
Kareena Kapoor has piqued the curiosity of her fans for her diet over almost two decades now. Ever since she debuted her 'size zero' figure in Vijay Krishna Acharya's 2008 film Tashan, she's had quite a fitness journey. From becoming mother to two sons to now entering her 40s, she's maintained a healthy lifestyle. Now, her longtime dietician Rujuta Diwekar has revealed that Kareena has been following the same diet, more or less, for 18 years now. Rujuta began working with Kareena while the latter was prepping for Tashan. The dietician even credits Kareena for getting the opportunity to write her first book in 2009 — Don't Lose Your Mind, Lose Your Weight. That's pretty much been Kareena's diet mantra since then too. In an interview with The Lallantop, Diwekar reveals the breakdown of the actor's diet — 'Dry fruits like almonds, raisins or figs as soon as she wakes up; paratha or poha for breakfast; dal and rice for lunch; cheese toast (sometimes) or mango/mango milkshake (seasonal) for evening snack; and khichdi with ghee/pulao for dinner.' Diwekar pointed out that if Kareena is on set, she usually prefers rice and dal for lunch because rice is more accessible there. Otherwise if at home, she has roti-sabzi for lunch. Diwekar also said that Kareena prefers to have khichdi with ghee for four to five days a week. Kareena also confirmed the same as the special guest at the launch of Diwekar's new book Mitahara: Food Wisdom From My Indian Kitchen earlier this year. 'My cook is exhausted because I make him make the same food for 10-15 days. Same dal-rice, dahi (curd)-rice. He is like, what am I cooking? But I can be really happy eating khichdi five times a week. It works. It keeps me happy with a dollop of ghee,' said the actor. But she also added that she finishes dinner by 6:30 pm and goes to sleep by 9:30 pm everyday. 'Dinner by 6 pm, lights out by 9:30 pm, morning workouts before the world wakes up,' Kareena said in an interview with The Nod. She added that her friends expect her not to show up for late-night parties and respect her for the same. She prefers spending her last hour watching the Emmy Award-winning show Schitt's Creek on low volume at home. Kareena claimed that the most 'joyfully ridiculous rumour' she heard about herself is that she eats quinoa and air to maintain her figure. In a conversation with Vicky Kaushal on The Hollywood Reporter India, Kareena confessed their mutual Punjabi love for parathas and claimed she used to have parathas for breakfast even during her size zero training for Tashan in 2007.

See here At Diwekar's book launch, Kareena revealed she was a chubby kid who'd be comfortable eating a bag of chips. She's come a long way now, but was momentarily concerned when she gained 45 kg after the birth of her second son Jeh in 2021. But she told herself that she has to grow to be comfortable in her skin again.
