This journey involved struggling with self-starvation in pursuit of validation, ultimately leading to a diagnosis of abdominal tuberculosis.

9 Jaw-dropping revelations made by Kusha Kapila on her health and weight loss 

1. Kusha Kapila reacts to her viral weight loss video 

Over the past month, I’ve found myself staring at countless transformational reels featuring myself, and it’s left me feeling as though I’m observing a stranger rather than recognizing my own reflection. It’s as if I needed to step back, take a step outside of myself, to truly question whether the person I see is indeed me.

As an ardent admirer putting words to my fascination, I’d say it feels like a perpetual detachment from myself, as if someone else is living in my skin more than I am. I can’t help but regularly check for Google alerts, finding myself swept away by Hindi news headlines that read, “The ordinary transformed into the divine beauty.

2. Being conscious of her weight at the age of 12

For the very first time, Kusha shared a personal detail about her past – she shed pounds around the age of 12 or 13. She opened up about the remarks people made concerning her eating and drinking habits, which left her acutely aware of her weight.

She mentioned that she began experiencing weight gain at the age of 10. Those around her would often point this out to her in an unkind manner, using terms like “motu” to refer to her.

3. Being put into a gym after 10th grade

In 10th grade, during her final exams, Kapila put on quite a bit of extra weight. Immediately following the exams, her mother signed her up for a gym that looked like a traditional wrestling training facility, emphasizing that it was time for her to shed those excess pounds.

For the very first time, Kusha made a visit to a fitness center. There, she picked up running on the treadmill, engaged in floor workouts, and undertook strength training exercises. It was during this period that Kusha disclosed her weight loss of around 20-22 kilograms.

4. Battling body image issues at the age of 16

Around the age of 15 or 16, Kusha began to blossom into beauty, yet she remained oblivious to the depth of her body image concerns and how persistent they would be. She admitted, “You don’t fully grasp it, you simply compare before-and-after makeovers and believe that the admiration you receive is the pinnacle of life.

5. Developing a sense of humor amidst weight struggles

After the Sukhee actress made up her mind, “I’ll just go with the flow, it doesn’t bother me,” she began to cultivate a wit that everyone around appreciated. She understood that people admired her not for her physical appearance but for her humor, pranks, and impressions. Consequently, she didn’t feel compelled to focus on her physique anymore.

6. Being the unhealthiest and struggling with mental health issues at the age of 22

Kusha disclosed that she had added 10 kilograms to her weight and at 22 years old, found herself in an unwell condition, unsure of her goals and aspirations, leaving her utterly confused.

One evening, as we were casually socializing, I found myself leaning against a wall. A friend of mine decided to capture the moment with a photo. Later in the night, around 1:30 AM, they shared this picture with me and added, “Kusha, it seems like you might benefit from some self-improvement.” This comment wasn’t born out of malice, but rather from their sincere concern. My friend had a passion for fitness and noticed that I was struggling mentally.

7. Starving for validation 

Kusha shared that despite becoming a gym member, her daily caloric intake remained around 800-900 calories, occasionally dropping lower. For both lunch and dinner, she stuck to the same straightforward meal – roti with tomato curry prepared by her mother. This significant calorie deficiency led to an extremely fast and noticeable weight loss. However, she didn’t develop any muscle or other gains; it was purely rapid weight reduction.

Initially, people would praise Kusha, saying things like “Wow Kusha, you look fantastic! What’s your secret?” However, beneath the surface, she was experiencing hunger pangs. Her struggles with body image had burrowed so deeply within her that she failed to comprehend why or for whom she was losing weight. Was it for health reasons? Or was it merely seeking validation from others?

8. Battling with Abdominal TB 

Kusha revealed that she often made concessions with her meals, and then one day, she fell ill with a fever in the evening which continued unabated for 12 consecutive days. Despite numerous examinations, doctors were unable to diagnose the cause. Eventually, one doctor proposed it might be tuberculosis (TB).

Kusha came to understand that the scarcity of her food intake had significantly weakened her immune response. She went on to clarify that women beyond the ages of 25-26 are more susceptible to tuberculosis, and she was unfortunately diagnosed with abdominal TB as a result of her compromised immune system.

9. On being healthy for herself 

For the initial time in her 33 years, she expressed a desire to shed pounds, not for anyone else but herself. She realized that she was alone now, accountable for every aspect of her life, and understood it was crucial to prioritize self-care since no one else would be stepping in.
