She’s known for starring in popular TV series such as The Mindy Project and The Office, as well as appearing in movies like A Wrinkle In Time and Ocean’s 8.

Between all of this, Mindy also managed to lose around 40 pounds, transforming her appearance. Curious about her approach? Here are five diet and fitness tips she followed to achieve her weight-loss goals.
Mindy Kaling Eats Everything in Moderation
When Mindy’s dieting wasn’t working for her, she decided to switch up her approach to eating altogether.
Mindy shared with TODAY that her love for food will always be a part of her life. “I’m never going to stop being a foodie. I’m never going to be someone who just eats spinach and salmon every day. For the first time, I’m embracing moderation, and I really enjoy it,” she said.
She Walks Whenever She Can
With her packed schedule, Mindy has limited time for exercise each day. She mentioned to TODAY that walking is her go-to activity for staying fit because it’s both quick and accessible for her lifestyle.
“Sometimes I’ll be like, ‘Well, I have four different times today where I have 10 minutes so let’s just walk instead of sitting down and checking Instagram,’” she said. “So instead of it being like one chunk of exercise in the beginning of the day or none at all, I’m now just deciding that I’m going to be a more active person all the time.”
She Stays Hydrated
Mindy shared some of her favorite wellness products with E! News. One of her favorites? Propel Fitness Water to keep herself hydrated.
“I love that I have options, whether it is powders on the go, different flavors, or the convenient one-liter bottles so that I can get my electrolytes and stay hydrated for my workouts and the rest of my day without getting bored,” the celeb said.
She Jumps Rope
One of Mindy’s favorite workout products is Crossrope’s weighted jump rope set because it’s easy to bring with her when she travels.
“Jumping rope is just about the hardest workout you could imagine, so I love that I can bring these Crossrope jump ropes with me sometimes because they’re cool and very easy to pack,” she shared with E! News.
She Switches up Her Workouts
Mindy’s workout routine can be summed up in one word: variety. She told PEOPLE that she doesn’t want to get used to one thing, as it helps challenge her.
“Surprising the body with lots of different things I think is really good, particularly for my body … I’ve really been mixing it up and knowing that if a workout doesn’t necessarily make me soak my clothes with sweat, that it still was a good workout… It does not have to be punishing,” Mindy said.
