Find out how Shreyas Desai lost 10 kilos in 12 months.

Real-Life Weight Loss Journey: Sticking to a routine is never easy for anyone. It takes determination and lots of discipline. In the pandemic, most of us have gained oodles of weight, but as we are slowly moving towards normalcy, weight loss and fitness is on everyone’s mind. Similar is the weight loss story of Shreyas Desai, an HR head in a software firm who lost 10 kgs by staying consistent for 12 months. Shreyas shared his real-life weight loss story with us. He says, “Workout is the best way to stay sane.”

The turning point: I lost 10kgs in the past one plus year. Earlier I used to weigh 84kgs, now I am down at 73 kgs. I decided to get into fitness and work on my mindfulness as I was facing depression and anxiety for years, which got triggered in Covid. For me, a workout is the best way to stay sane.

Healthier and Fitter: Earlier it was more about weight loss. The moment I saw the change, it motivated me even more. A great trainer and a constant change in workout routines have kept me going for over 12 months now. My trainer, Kabir, helped me reach my weight goal. We did online training, and the results have been phenomenal.

Weight Loss Journey and the diet: Shreyas’ diet was easy and full of nutrients.

• Breakfast – Oats
• Mid-morning – eggs
• Lunch – 2 roti and vegetables or non-veg
• Snacks – eggs, fruits, sprouts
• Dinner – salads and soup
• Before sleep – skimmed milk

Weight Loss And Workout: It’s planned and changes every month. My trainer focuses on different body parts and includes:

• cardio
• high-intensity workouts
• weights
• stretches
• ball workouts

Any weight loss mantra: Shortcuts don’t work. Consistency is the only key.

What worked for Shreyas: Discipline, consistency, a good trainer, and a maintained routine worked for me.
