Ram Kapoor has been in the news for a while, following his impressive weight loss transformation. Speaking about his diet, the actor who lost 55 kilos said, “I now eat twice a day. My first meal is at about 10.30-11 am. And my second meal is at 6.30 pm. No snacking. 45 minutes of cardio, 45 minutes of weight training.” Kapoor further told Devna Gandhi on her podcast that he consumes a natural diet and is working on his lifestyle, including sleep.

Taking a cue, let’s understand whether eating only twice daily is sustainable.

Jinal Patel, dietician, Zynova Shalby Hospital Mumbai, said eating twice a day can be a sustainable approach to lose weight for some individuals. “But people need to understand that for weight loss results to show, one needs to make continuous efforts. Healthy weight loss can be achieved with the help of a nourishing diet, but it also depends on factors like the quality of your meals, portion sizes, and personal lifestyle,” said Patel.

She added that the eating twice approach to weight loss is quite similar to intermittent fasting. “In intermittent fasting, one eats only during the eating window and not otherwise,” said Patel.

However, it may not work for everyone. “Instead of weight loss, you may start to gain weight as fasting can significantly slow down your metabolism, making it challenging to lose weight. Due to eating restrictions, some people tend to overeat during the eating window, leading to weight gain,” contested Patel.

For healthy weight loss, one should never skip their meals.

“The key is maintaining a healthy balance, avoiding unhealthy foods, and checking the portion size. Eat foods enriched with goodness or essential nutrients like vitamins, healthy fats, fibre, omega-3 fatty acids, and protein can help with better results,” said Patel.

This can help you stay full and energised throughout the day. “Strictly avoid foods that are packed, processed, or contain preservations. Choose healthy food alternatives over unhealthy options,” said Patel.
