CASE STUDY & SUCCESS STORIES
Name: Naina
Gender: Female
Location: California
BMI: 33.06
Case history: Naina, a homemaker living abroad, was suffering from hypothyroidism and nutritional deficiencies. Her thyroid was controlled at a TSH of 12.78 with 200 mcg of Levothyroxine. Due to thyroid issues, she was also overweight. She tried various diet techniques to lose weight along with hitting the gym, but she ended up feeling lethargic and weak. All her previous weight loss journeys required her to give up on her favorite food and pleasure food and therefore she could also not continue the program for long. She was hardly able to finish her basic household chores. She was also suffering from protein malnutrition due to her poor eating habits. Hence, she was looking for a sustainable plan which would help manage her underactive thyroid, help her lose weight improving all her nutrition deficiencies as she was planning to have a child and healthy weight loss was essential for her to feel energetic.
Approach by the best weight loss nutritionist/dietician in Hyderabad, Telangana, India Deepika Chalasani:
After analyzing her dietary recall, we saw that her foods were acidic and also deficient in optimum protein causing imbalances in the metabolism. She was having quick digesting foods causing weight gain and fat accumulation. Hence, the first line of treatment was to eliminate any kind of nutritional deficiencies such as vitamin D and B12. We designed a customized plan for her taking into account her health goals, routine pleasure foods and favorite foods. We started by giving her a structure to her eating pattern making sure that she eats enough protein and vegetables throughout the day and consumes fruits once in a day. We made sure the foods were palate-friendly for her by sharing recipes that supported her taste buds. We divided the daily proteins appropriately throughout the day for optimum digestion and gut health. A variety of foods with the right combinations was suggested to support her health goals and body needs. Lots of vegetables in the form of smoothies, soups, salads, stir fry, and curries were given. Healthy fats in the form of cheese nuts seeds, and dates were given. Good quality protein such as paneer, tofu, eggs, shakes was incorporated. Optimum complex carbs were incorporated to give her satiety. Once she was comfortable with the diet, we suggested she incorporate physical activity such as brisk walking. Her diet was modified and personalized as per her health improvements and physical activity. Her choices and interests in foods were considered and incorporated in a healthier way in her plan. She was feeling constantly stressed and anxious regarding her weight which was hindering her health journey and hence Deepika conducted a mind-body session for her to align her thoughts and beliefs and bring some positivity and calmness. Continuous monitoring and support were provided for a smooth health journey.
Result:
With our support and guidance, she lost 44 pounds in 6 months despite traveling with her husband for pleasure trips and vacationing in India for a month. Her TSH levels came down to 0.16 from 12.78. Her sleep cycle improved and she felt more energetic than before. She loved cooking her meals and enjoyed her food on the plate. Her washroom cycles and digestion got better. She was able to manage her improved health despite traveling and attending weddings. The icing on the cake for her was that her husband also lost an excess of 50 pounds in the same period with the same food and lifestyle. He is now at his ideal BMI.
