Working Professional, Thane; Lost 17 kgs in 4 months and has been able to re-discover his fitness.
Extremely happy to place this, long due, token of appreciation for Pradnya Ma'am - my only and favourite diet consultant.
Being in my early 30s and having got most of my body test results normal, I never felt I needed diet consulting. We all live in that paradox (that we are fit and don't need any assistance). I did realise that I had become overweight and wanted to get back to what I was in my 20s. But at the same time, was sceptical and concerned about whom to consult. Because for most of us, dieting is synonymous to eating less while it is about eating right! I started exercising and got some results but then the lead of our group (JnM) suggested us (my wife & me) to meet Ma'am for better results. I was amazed to realize where it went wrong. It all started with the first consultation and then there was no stopping till we met the targeted weight and indices. Let me clarify - it's not just about weight! The overall fitness and most importantly the feel-good factor that comes along is fantastic.
She is extremely scientific in her approach and customises the solution for everyone. Her approach is complementing and not imposing. The first thing she asked me (and asks everyone) is the blood report! She could quickly realise that my protein intake was low and planned my diet accordingly. She also took care of boredom which can come from diet foods. Funny but yet another amazing part is that she suggests recipes for lot of things to make them interesting! She gets involved and the journey is travelled together towards the goal and not letting the concerned tread the path alone. Plus, she is approachable. You can message her and she for sure, will reply. She motivates you to approach her whenever there is a concern and not wait for formal weekly consultations. Unless one is exposed to good practices, one would not understand why you need them. Furthermore, she is very lively and fun to talk to. I enjoyed my sessions and always looked forward to the sessions. In the current lifestyle we all need assistance irrespective of our weight et al. The earlier we realise, the better it is.
In my case, I lost 17 Kgs in 4 months' time through good diet practices and exercises and as I mentioned earlier, more than weight, I feel fantastic today. I do 10K runs with ease, do variety of tough and easy exercises without getting tired. And most importantly, have lost my double chin and have been getting a lot of compliments π Feel good factor! She has played a key role in my transformation and I am thankful to her for being a part.
Her approach towards work, making it fun-filled, focus on sustainability and sound fundamentals contribute immensely in her favour and to our benefits. The good practices which I learnt from her have been helpful in maintaining what I gained. I will any day recommend her to anyone looking for any assistance on health/diets. To me, she is a solution provider and not just a diet consultant.
More than anything, she is like a family to us in Mumbai and we (wife & me) enjoy being under her supervision because we know she is the best π
