Priyanka Chopra is celebrating her 43rd birthday in a bright yellow bikini. In a new social media post, the star cuddles with husband Nick Jonas as she rings in another year. \u201cAs I prepare to go into another year around the sun. On my birthday eve, all I can be is grateful. I feel so protected by the universe and so grateful for all the gifts that have been provided to me. My family is my greatest gift and all of my incredible well wishers around the world. Thank you. So with immense gratitude I go into 43 baby!\u201d she captioned the series of Instagram snaps.

Priyanka focuses on eating enough protein. \u201cI don\u2019t really have a diet. I wing it by the seat of my pants,\u201d she told ELLE<\/a>. \u201cIt\u2019s such a girl thing to do, like if I feel, \u2018Ughh, I put on a few pounds\u2019 and I feel gross about [myself] I suddenly start eating salad, protein, and soup. Otherwise, if I am feeling like I am in great shape I am okay with cheeseburgers and pizza. So, when someone asks me about my diet I feel terrible saying that I don\u2019t really have one.\u201d Why is protein a great addition for weight loss? Several clinical trials<\/a> have found that consuming more protein than the recommended dietary allowance not only reduces body weight (BW), but also enhances body composition by decreasing fat mass while preserving fat-free mass (FFM) in both low-calorie and standard-calorie diets.<\/p>\n Priyanka stresses the importance of hydration. She told the Times of India that drinking \u201cjuices and water are very high\u201d in her health priorities. \u201cIn fact, water is a must for everyone, at least 10 glasses a day. I often overshoot that, but it does wonders to your skin,\u201d she said. Water helps get rid of waste through urination, perspiration, and bowel movements, keeps your temperature normal, lubricates and cushions joints, and helps protect sensitive tissues, explains the Mayo Clinic<\/a>.<\/p>\n Priyanka enjoys jump roping. \u201cI love skipping. I learnt it really really well in school and then I learnt it even better during Mary Kom, so I try to get my cardio in my skipping. It\u2019s easy to carry, you have your skipping rope in your bag, it\u2019s easy to do,\u201d Priyanka revealed in an interview<\/a>. \u201cNot only can the repetitive movement of skipping rope elevate your heart rate, work muscles in the arms and legs and burn calories, it may even provide a quick jolt of joy,\u201d says Nike<\/a>.<\/p>\n Self-care is a priority for Priyanka. \u201cIf you have the ability to look out for your well-being, you also have the ability to look out for your family and friend\u2019s well-being,\u201d she says. \u201cIf you are inherently happy inside and you\u2019re investing in yourself and taking care of your own self, that\u2019s truly what wellness means.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Priyanka Chopra is celebrating her 43rd birthday in a bright yellow bikini.
