CASE STUDY & SUCCESS STORIES


Name: Priyanka

Age: 31 years

Gender: Female, Australia

BMI: 29.5 kg/m2

Profession: Software engineer


Case History: Priyanka, a mother of two, was overweight and has been taking hypothyroid medications for a while in the past. During a regular annual check, she discovered that a family history of diabetes had crept in. Her HbA1c level was 6.2%. Her blood tests also revealed low iron levels and an imbalance in other critical vitamins including B12 and D3. She always had a myth that weight loss would be difficult for her as she had hypothyroidism. Both these conditions made her lethargic & fatigued throughout the day. She was keen to have another child and therefore wanted to ensure her internal health parameters were comfortably in range for a complication-free pregnancy and a healthy baby.


Approach by the best weight loss nutritionist, Telangana, India: Asher's vitamin and mineral levels were low, we gave her a variety of vegetables and fruits with supporting easy-to-make recipes to enable her to follow in her hectic schedules. Since nutrition takes time to change the vitamin and mineral status in the body, we recommended taking sufficient supplementation in the interim. She received a food plan that was tailored to Australia's accessibility and availability. Through the use of bioavailable sources of iron, such as organ meat, her iron deficiency was treated. She has a family history of diabetes; therefore, her eating plan was centred on reversing her HbA1c levels to prevent susceptibility and eliminate the risk of gestational diabetes in her future pregnancy. As she is a working mother in Australia and had a hectic schedule, we kept the good parts of her existing dietary habits and changed only those areas that needed attention to support her outcomes. She and her family have an active social life and most weekends are busy with social engagements therefore a lot of occasions for food indulgences are a norm. We gave her appropriate detox plans to support her excess indulgence without compromising on long-term good health. Her lifestyle changes also encouraged her family and kids to lead healthier lives despite being present at the events, all the recommendations and interventions were meant to be long-lasting and goal-oriented.
