KUALA LUMPUR: Former actress Azah Aziz, who lives in Montreal, Canada has successfully reduced her weight from 63 to 48 kilograms in five months.

Her "simple and applicable" formula involved walking and running daily, cutting down on carbohydrates and doing away with sweet drinks or desserts.

"My journey towards a slimmer me has been successful. I have achieved my target weight of 48 kilograms in five months," said Azah in a recent Instagram post.

"Now is the time to maintain it and gain some muscle as well. When my journey began on May 23 I was 63 kilograms.

"I ran, walked and hiked every day, to make sure I achieved 10,000 steps a day.

"I also ate smaller portions of every meal, drank green tea, boosted my intake of proteins and greens, and cut down on carbohydrates," she explained.

Azah admitted that she still ate rice at times, but took only two tablespoons at a time.

"I drink lots of water and take no sweet desserts. Best of all I did not take any diet pills or supplements.

"If I can do it, so can you!" she said.

Azah, who was popular in the 1990s, is married to Daud Leroy and has three sons Aaron, Ryan and Justin.

They previously lived in France and the United Kingdom, before migrating to Canada in 2000.
