Mindy Kaling looked unrecognizable while flaunting her alleged 40lb weight loss at the pre-Golden Globe Awards bash, Golden Eve, in Beverly Hills on Tuesday.
The 46-year-old Running Point co-creator has never admitted to taking a trendy GLP-1 agonist drug but, rather, credited her slimmed down 5ft2in frame to portion control, increased hydration, weight training, yoga and 15-20 mile walks per week.
‘In my 20s, I had this very certain idea of what “being fit” really meant,’ Kaling (born Vera Chokalingam) told E! News in 2022.
‘You had to run a seven-minute mile and eat this amount of carbs and proteins. It took me a long time to realize that there are lots of different ways to be fit.’
The FDA has only approved three GLP-1 drugs specifically for weight loss – the semaglutide Wegovy, the liraglutide Saxenda and the tirzepatide Zepbound – and the rest are specifically for patients suffering from type 2 diabetes.
