SUNSHINE Dizon: Happily Fit

 
   
 
A lot of fans and entertainment media were surprised to see Sunshine Dizon sporting a thin-reed figure. How on earth did she do it?
 
   
 
  At the launching of GMA 7’s “Encantadia,” many have given Sunshine a curious second look. She was theslimmest among the stars of the show. Why, she’s even slimmer than Karylle. And to think that she was almost overweight before. The young actress dismissed rumors about her involvement in drugs as the reason why she lost weight very fast. She claims to have been working out, checking on her diet and working a lot. “You think whatever you want to think basta ako I know the truth. I know what’s really happening. If I’m doing that, I don’t think GMA will give me something as big as this,” she wailed.

As Pirena in Encantadia, Sunshine is given a chance to show-off some of her fighting skills. And in preparation for the fight scenes, she was trained in some form of martial arts which she says contributes to her weight loss. “Mahirap ang fight scenes namin rito, pero okay lang. Mabigat rin ang training namin kasi dapat sa mga ganitong eksena, maliksi ka,” she shared.

In order to fit in the requirements of her role, Sunshine stopped eating foods rich in carbohydrates. “I just take proteinrich foods and veggies,” she quipped. Sunshine admits she underwent liposuction as she really wanted to get off her fat. It was in September and since then, she gradually lost weight. She also cited her workload as a contributing factor to her weight loss. Take this. She’s taping two days for Encantadia and another two days for “Bahay Mo Ba ‘To.” And as we all know, these tapings last until the wee hours of the morning, truly a very physically-taxing activity.

The young actress was amazed at the colossal scope of the new fantaserye. She was so impressed by the set, costume and design. On her first taping day, she was bewildered when she was asked to fit the head dress. She even got to wear contact lens.  “I didn’t expect it to be thisawesome. Okay, this is really big,” was all she could say. It’s been more than one year that Sunshine and her former boyfriend Polo Ravales have separated and now that they are both in the cast of Encantadia, tongues were wagging about the possibility of reconciliation between them. To this, Sunshine said, “Sabi nila huwag ka raw magsasalita ng patapos. I like my relationship with Polo right now. We’re friends. My mom is friends with his mom, close ‘yong family namin. I’d like to keep it like that. Masaya na ‘ko doon,” Sunshine admits not having time to even talk to her ex-boyfriend even though they’re part of the same show. Whatever she has little time during the taping, she uses it to nap. “But you know, I sometimes get to talk to him.” But she emphasized that she’s happy just being a friend to Polo. “Mahirap kapag katrabaho mo ‘yong boyfriend mo. Paano kapag nag-away kayo, eh di masisira ‘yong acting mo, di ba?” she concluded. DP
