It’s our Desi Girl’s birthday today (July 18), and we cannot keep calm. Priyanka Chopra Jonas is celebrating 41st birthday this year, and she is as fit as she was when she joined the film industry. You must be eager to know about the secret to staying gorgeous. In an older interview with Vogue India, the global icon was quoted saying, “Honestly, I work out only when I need to. My body responds very quickly to exercise, so I don’t need too long to tone up and get into shape.”
On multiple occasions, the actor has confessed that she has a good metabolism. She added that though she wants to hit the gym, she also works 15 hours every day, and she is exhausted by that time. While she might have a good metabolism, here are five lessons on fitness that the actor has taught us.
Opt For A Healthy Way To Get Thin
In an interview with The Quint, the actor said that there is a healthy way of getting into shape. She added that she always gains weight around holidays. She said that she never compares her body with others. While mentioning Katrina Kaif and her abs, she said that she would rather ask the actor how she got those abs than saying that she does not look pretty because she does not have abs.
Beauty And Health Are Correlated

In the same interview, she added that for centuries, the world followed the wrong standards of beauty by defining that an ideal woman should have a 36-24-36 figure. However, Chopra believes that beauty and health go hand-in-hand. She added that being beautiful is about being the best version of yourself, and it includes how healthy you can be and how great you can be at what you do.
Do Not Compromise On Your Taste

A couple of years ago, Chopra in a conversation with Pinkvilla revealed that she doesn't like to compromise on food. Her entire day is about food. During breakfast, she talks about lunch and during lunch, she talks about dinner. Her ‘jam’ is to find the best places to eat whenever she is in a new city.
However, she watches what she eats and opts for healthier options. She said that she also squeezes in quick workouts at least three times a week if she does not get time to go to the gym.
She Loves Skipping
The actor always carries a skipping rope. She said that it is one of the best cardio workouts, and the rope is easy to carry, no matter where you go. Now we know how the global icon stays fit despite travelling across the globe and relishing sumptuous delights.
Healthy Eating Options

In the same interview with Pinkvilla, Chopra revealed that she loves to have a protein-packed breakfast with avocado toasts, eggs, idli-dosa, poha, and parathas, when she craves them.
For lunch, the actor prefers home-cooked meals. She eats nachni roti, bhindi, dal, aloo gobhi, pickle, curd, and salad. However, when she is in the US, she would prefer roasted fish with vegetables and fresh salad.
The actor also shared that though no one should eat dinner right before bed, her tight schedule often makes her do it the other way around. Therefore, she prefers a hot bowl of soup and other things that she loves to devour for lunch.
