I cut down on carbs, rice, and excess protein, and shifted to a more fruit- and vegetable-rich diet," explained Tandon. "While I'm a foodie at heart and have had my fair share of cheat days, I believe that diet and fitness are more about mindset than deprivation. Once you're mentally in, it gets easier to stay consistent."
