Mindy Kaling<\/b><\/a> is an entirely new woman in 2022. She blew fans away in March by unveiling a<\/span> noticeable weight loss<\/span><\/a> in an Instagram photo while wearing a plunging, figure-hugging gown. It wasn\u2019t a one-off, as she went on to rock a stunning Dolce & Gabbana dress with a fitted bodice and thigh-high slit to the <\/span>Vanity Fair<\/span><\/i> Oscar Party and shared another sexy little black dress photo two days later, admitting it was a \u201cthirst trap.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n The Office<\/span><\/i> alum has opened up about how she now has a workout routine of activities she enjoys doing, such as yoga, Pilates, walking and strength training. As a result, her body has loved how she\u2019s mixing things up instead of the \u201cpunishing\u201d fitness routines she used to put herself through.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cWhen I was younger, I had a very specific idea of how working out needed to be. It was like 45 minutes on the treadmill, seven-minute mile, it needed to be punishing, I needed to hate it,\u201d Mindy told<\/span> People<\/span><\/i><\/a> in a May 2022 interview.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cI don\u2019t have to be like the expert at the thing to really enjoy it and to get a great workout,\u201d the actress told the publication. \u201cSurprising the body with lots of different things I think is really good, particularly for my body \u2026 I\u2019ve really been mixing it up and knowing that if a workout doesn\u2019t necessarily make me soak my clothes with sweat, that it still was a good workout \u2026 It does not have to be punishing.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n Mindy has also<\/span> changed her mindset<\/span><\/a> when it comes to shedding pounds. \u201cI\u2019ve tried really hard to let go of this idea of losing weight for vanity reasons and really trying to think of how I can be healthy,\u201d <\/span>The Mindy Project<\/span><\/i> star revealed. \u201cAnd for me, healthy is working out, moving my body a lot, keeping hydrated, and then not having negative connotations around working out and making me feel like if I don\u2019t do this, then I won\u2019t be something else.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n The Morning Show<\/span><\/i> star<\/span> is a mom of two<\/span><\/a>. She welcomed a daughter, Katherine, in December 2017, followed by a son, Spencer, in September 2020. She\u2019s<\/span> always preached body positivity<\/span><\/a>, even before her recent slim down. \u201cIDK who needs to hear this but \u2026 WEAR A BIKINI IF YOU WANT TO WEAR A BIKINI. You don\u2019t have to be a size 0. Swipe for my storytime and have a great summer,\u201d Mindy wrote in a July 2019 Instagram post.<\/span><\/p>\n Scroll down for photos of Mindy\u2019s weight loss transformation over the years. <\/b><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
