Success Story: Story on how  slowed metabolism, bloating, constant feeling of sluggishness and increasing waist was managed & controlled with Fitho’s diet & exercise program. All this and 3 kg weight loss in just one month. Read here to know more.

Story as shared by Mrs Suchitra Agrawal.

“I am a homemaker and mother of two kids, both in their twenties. I was about 10-15 % over my optimum weight and that too after I was conscious and tried to watch what I eat & exercise regularly. Lately as I entered my mid forties my body started showing signs of slowed metabolism, followed by sluggishness, sagging muscles and some  bloating sensation. My increasing waistline brought me to my wits end and by now had begun to really concern me.

I approached Fitho to help me get my fitness and health on track. Questions like will I be able to cope with the  exercises or manage to stick to the program played on my mind. However, my apprehensions were cleared and Ms Geeta my dietician & personal health manager dealt with all my hesitations.

I continued with my regular brisk walk with light jogging and did the exercise and light weights which I was given. Following the diet, I started feeling lighter. There was a weekly review followed by a new diet chart with variety of food options. At Fitho I was guided like a friend and motivated regularly. I never felt like I was following a “diet” as there was a lot of variety in diet and exercise both. I lost 3 kgs in a month’s time whilst keeping up with my frequent social commitments and agendas. I have also been able to incorporate the Fitho way of ‘wellness’ into my family life and the results are there to show. Fitho has been a friend and guide and extremely professional in all aspects.
I thank the Fitho team for showing a healthier way of life to me and my family.”

 

Post Pregnancy Weight Loss Success Story

Priya Gupta: Before

I am 34 years old and a  mother of two young daughters. All my life I have been thin. Even pregnancy didn’t add too many inches or kg to my body . But with age, average eating habits and an almost sedentary lifestyle I started putting on bad looking flab on my body. There was a paunch that hung over my jeans. I developed a double chin that made me look terrible in my pictures. Plus there was this perpetual lethargy that hung on me all the time. I knew I wasnt overweight but I didn’t feel like myself.

Gradually I started reading about diet, health, nutrition, exercise online. I came across www.fitho.in and subscribed to it. Over a period of time it became my source of information on health and fitness. With all the information on health I was definitely getting more aware about my lifestyle. But I still needed someone to help me put it in practice. I didn’t need a heavy duty diet but I did need professional guidance to get me on track, especially since I had my basic knowledge on health and nutrition in place.  After deliberating for sometime I decided to finally write to Fitho about their body toning program. Instantly I got a reply from their side and they got me started on the program. The best part of this was that I didn’t have to go anywhere and everything was given to my right in the comfort of my house.

The first step was filling an exhaustive questionnaire  about  my lifestyle, food habits, food preferences, fitness levels etc. Based on the information given by me I was delivered my diet chart and exercise chart within one working day, along with a personal health care manager (something similar to a personal relationship manager). My health manger was my mentor and my assistant who was  available for me round the clock, checking on me, monitoring my progress, giving me healthy recipes and just ensuring if I am comfortable with everything.

Priya Gupta: After

Joining Fitho has been the best  investment I have made in terms of my health. I lost five Kg in two months along with all that extra flab that totally melted out of my body (my main motive was to lose the flab and not the weight). I got all this without compromising on my favorite food. Plus there were no funny restrictions to eat dinner before 7:00 pm to lose weight! I could got out and lead a normal social life on this routine. Fitho understood my requirement completely and created a service that was completely personalized to my need and personal goal.

I finished the program three months ago and I have managed to keep all that flab off! Fitho helped me get a brand new lean and fit body. I almost the same size as I was before my daughters were born. Thank you Fitho for understanding and delivering what you promised to help me achieve. I would like to vote for Fitho as the most healthy, simple and easy body toning program that is completely natural and uses no fad or crash diets to help you get toned. I have  lost weight and gained health with Fitho :)

How to Manage Type 2 Diabetes

Type 2 diabetes is caused due to resistance developed by our body cells towards insulin produced by the body. This leads to a rise in blood glucose level as the cells natural tendency to absorb insulin as much reduces, preventing the body from using glucose effectively resulting in excess sugar levels in the body. Type 1 diabetes is genetic but Type 2 diabetes is a lifestyle disease most commonly caused by obesity. The good news is that because Type 2 diabetes is not genetic and can be controlled, managed and sometimes even be reversed completely.
