Sonam Kapoor's ultimate slimdown tricks

As one of Bollywood's most talked about and photographed women, Sonam Kapoor has not only made a name for herself as a major talent and total style star, but the actress's candid comments about her ongoing battle with the bulge has endeared her to any woman struggling to ditch those unwanted pounds. The 26-year-old Players star has revealed that she's dropped an incredible 80lbs (35 kilos) since her "obese and unhealthy" teenage years, which saw the star's weight balloon during her time at boarding school in Singapore. And it was being offered a shot at stardom and the chance to follow in her famous father's footsteps and become an actor, that propelled Sonam off the couch and into the gym. Last week insisting, "My whole life revolves around food. While having breakfast I think what I should have for lunch, while having lunch I think what I should eat for dinner," it's clear that the star struggles on a daily basis to avoid the food pitfalls that have plagued her for years. Adding, "I am a Punjabi and the whole point is I love feeding people and I love getting fed."
