Enchanting beauty Jacqueline Fernandez is one of the leading Bollywood actresses. She seems to have found her footing in Bollywood. She debuted in B-town with the movie Aladin and gained a lot of popularity, flooring the fans with her beauty and talent.
Recently, as per a report in Hindustan Times, Jacqueline has opened up on her struggles with food habits during her younger days. Speaking to Shilpa Shetty on her new show, Jacqueline shared that she used to punish herself for eating when she was in her 20s. When Shilpa Shetty asked if Jacqueline changes her food habits when under stress, she said, “In my 20s I did go through quite a lot of eating issues. A lot. It happened because of my pageant days, I did not realize then but to be appearing on an international platform at the age of 19 (had its own pressures). That is when the pressure really got to me, I did not know how to handle it. Food became the enemy. That then continued in my 20s and continued (when I became an actor) being in front of the camera.”
She added, “Like (I would worry about) how I am going to look in front of the camera. It was like you would punish yourself for eating. But, I was blessed that I was able to overcome it. Slowly, it took time. There would be times when I would be go for months and would be okay and then something would happen, and I would go back into the habit. I was quite horrible actually, but it was definitely something that made me stronger and much more aware of food.”
