Actress and comedian Vidyullekha Raman, who debuted in Gautham Menon's 'Neethaane En Ponvasantham' with Jiiva and Samantha in the lead role, grabbed attention of netizens because of her drastic transformation.

Vidyullekha entered movie industry as a plus-sized woman who made the audience laugh with her comedy mostly about the way she looks and her overweight body size. Vidyu, the daugter of television actor Mohan Raman, is topping the list of trends on social media for her weight loss journey post on Instagram.

The actress has shared some inspiring pictures and videos from her workout routine sessions. Vidyullekha wrote, “Fake confidence vs. ACTUAL confidence. When I was overweight a frequently asked question by everyone to me was “how are you so confident?”. In retrospect, was I? Or did I just come to terms with the fact that I will be obese all my life? Today I am actually confident of myself because I did the unthinkable and changed my lifestyle and habits. I have come to realise that if you put your mind to it, anything is possible. Sounds cliché, right? But it’s the truth!!”

Fake confidence vs. ACTUAL confidence. When I was overweight a frequently asked question by everyone to me was “how are you so confident?”. In retrospect, was I? Or did I just come to terms with the fact that I will be obese all my life? Today I am actually confident of myself because I did the unthinkable and changed my lifestyle and habits. I have come to realise that if you put your mind to it, anything is possible. Sounds cliché, right? But it’s the truth!! You need to be disciplined, workout 6 times a week and follow a balanced diet. There is no secret potion or pill to make the result happen! Just pure hard work. Nothing in life comes easy but when you see result, it’s worth all the sweat and tears. Recorded weight as on 20/06/20 - 68.2kgs #weightlossjourney #weightlosstransformation

Portion control, eating clean & daily exercise - follow this and you will see results. I’m down 6kgs.. still a long way to go. I used to think dieting was frustrating and depressing (since I’m such a foodie). I don’t diet. I have just changed my lifestyle and my relationship with food. Now I love what I eat, my energy levels are up, I realised I’m surprisingly good at cooking (hehe) and I FEEL CLEAN. 🥬🥦🥒🥗 📷 - @dsabesh #Brunching #Superfoods #MexicanSalad #Avacados #PowerSmoothie #WeightLossJourney

THE DRESS FITS AGAIN! ⚠️ NOT A BEFORE AND AFTER PIC. Lockdown silver lining. I measure progress by the way my clothes fit. When I was my lowest weight in July last year I bought this red dress for my parent's anniversary. That picture went viral. Sadly put on 6kgs after that due to inconsistency in diet and workouts. The dress didn't fit for 10 months. During this lockdown I have made sure I stay active and on my feet. Plus no distractions like outside food. Happy that I finally get back into this red dress (and it feels a bit loose too) 😬💃🏻
