Chennai Sep 4 (IANS) Well-known Tamil composer D. Imman who has shed over 30 kg in the last eight months says he didn t go under the knife for his terrific physical transformation.
His lean look has become the talk of the town.
Relieved and happy about his current physical state Imman says a health check-up last year was the turning point in his life.
"When I went for a health check-up last year I was shocked to find out that I was on the verge of being diabetic. This is when I realised I need to lose weight and focus on my fitness. I didn t go on a special diet but just changed what I ate " Imman told IANS.
He went on a low-carb diet and avoided oily foods. He has lost about 35 kg.
"I ate right. I used to crave for non-vegetarian food. I still eat chicken but I grill it and have in the form of kebabs. My trainer put me on a week full of smoothies and protein shakes. It felt good to lose fight and most importantly I felt fit " he said.
Imman clarified he didn t undergo liposuction.
"I didn t want to go for liposuction because it might help lose weight instantly but you won t feel fit. Since I was naturally losing weight by altering my diet I was conscious of what I was eating and it felt good " he added.
