CASE STUDY & SUCCESS STORIES
Name: Rakesh
Age- 51 years
BMI-31.6 Kg/m2
Profession- Mechanical Engineer
Location- Hyderabad
Case History- Rakesh is a mechanical engineer from Hyderabad who wanted to lose weight and improve his health parameters. He was obese with comorbidities, elevated lipid profile and had sleep apnea. Rakesh was also dependent on the CPAP machine for the last seven years. He often felt fatigued and drank several teas to overcome it. His blood reports depicted high insulin, moderate inflammation, high normal creatinine of 1, high triglycerides of 181 mg/dl, and signs of anaemia that are unusual for men. His fasting sugar was 166 mg/dl, and his HbA1c was 9.9, and he was a smoker.
Approach by the best online dietician in Hyderabad, Telangana, India, Deepika Chalasani: - Rakesh is a mechanical engineer whose work day would start at 8.30 am and by the time he would reach home by 8.30. Therefore, we had to give him sumptuous meals that he could carry to the office. As per his dietary recall, he used to start his day with a grain-centric South Indian breakfast, which would make him tired and lethargic after his meal. To reduce his sluggishness, he used to have several cups of tea. We proposed a diet with a sumptuous breakfast with a low glycemic load, including fibre and antioxidant-rich signature green rotis from Shvasa, healthy fats like super seeds, and complete proteins like eggs. His cravings, blood sugar levels, and energy were under control by organising a healthy, balanced meal at the beginning of the day. He no longer depended on teas for energy because his body was automatically put in a fat-burning zone, naturally increasing his energy levels. We also ensured that good fats were included in his meal from whole foods like nuts and seeds, and the overall percentage of fats did not go above 35%. He used to suffer from constipation, and therefore, soluble fibres in the form of not-so-over-cooked vegetables, whole grains, and increased water intake were suggested to regulate his bowel movements. We ensured that all the meals suited his palate and taste buds, which he enjoyed and was happy to follow. He also observed that his need for smoking was significantly reduced. To support his overall health, we asked him to indulge in "out-of-comfort" zone walks for 40 minutes in the morning, which helped lower his fasting sugar and triglycerides and tone his body. We gave him guidelines to indulge in his favourite foods when he travelled to Kerala for family gatherings. We also gave him options to order for work and conferences when he travelled. Deepika did a few personal mindfulness-related coaching sessions and therefore gained 1 to 1.5 kgs despite the indulgence and tailored detox plans to help him lose the gained weight in a few days.
Results- Rakesh lost 10 kgs in 4 months, his fasting sugar dropped from 166 to 104 mg/dl, and his HbA1c to 7.4. His diabetes is now in control. His triglyceride levels dropped to 94. His doctor reduced his medications, and he was very happy that he was not required to be dependent on his CPAP machine anymore based on his test reports. His energy levels also improved. He could travel to places his health wouldn't allow and wear outfits that he previously couldn't. He successfully achieved his health goals with sustainable lifestyle changes that drastically reversed his poor health.
