Ram Kapoor, renowned for his roles in television series such as Kasamh Se and Bade Achhe Lagte Hain, underwent a remarkable weight transformation. In December 2024, he posted a photograph on his Instagram account, explaining his prolonged absence from social media. His caption read, “Hi guys, sorry for the slightly long absence from Insta was working on myself quite extensively.”

Over the course of a year, Ram Kapoor successfully lost 55 kilograms, reducing his weight from 140 kilograms to 85 kilograms. During a podcast with Devna Gandhi, he candidly discussed his weight loss journey, detailing the workout and dietary regimen that contributed to this impressive change.

Reflecting on his experience, Ram Kapoor revealed that he had been focused on weight loss for the past five years. He stated, “What I did was, for 5 years before I achieved this, I went on a massive weight loss journey and shed 30 kgs, then I put it back on again. This helped me learn what I should not do, then I would stay up all night and read books by experts, and watch podcasts and I figured that there are two kinds of people in this world, one who cares about their fitness and health, and people who don’t.”

Ram Kapoor's diet and workout regimen:

Regarding his diet and exercise routine, Ram Kapoor explained that he adhered to a regimen of only two meals per day. His first meal was typically consumed between 10:30 AM and 11:00 AM, while his second meal was taken around 6:30 PM. He avoided snacking between these meals.

Ram Kapoor practiced intermittent fasting, eating within an eight-hour window and fasting for sixteen hours. He maintained a consistent workout schedule, dedicating 45 minutes to cardio and another 45 minutes to strength training. He emphasized that strength training and a proper sleep routine are crucial components for effective and sustainable weight loss.

Was it Ozempic?

Ozempic is a medication designed for the treatment of diabetes that has recently become well-known for its widespread application in promoting rapid weight loss. When inquired about his use of Ozempic, Ram Kapoor stated, “I have never used Ozempic or any other weight loss medication, nor have I undergone bariatric surgery. But does any of that really matter? It is important to note that pursuing such options is not inherently wrong, as individuals often seek them to improve themselves.”
