What is Overweight & Obesity
Your current body weight is a cumulative effect of several factors such as genetics, medical conditions, hormonal changes, gender, etc. Apart from the number (kilos) what is more crucial is your body composition which includes the body fat, muscle mass, bone weight and water content.
According to WHO Overweight and obesity are defined as abnormal or excessive fat accumulation that presents a risk to health. A body mass index (BMI) over 25 is considered overweight, and over 30 is obese. overweight and obesity rate is rapidly growing in adults and children. Obesity is a significant risk factor for many chronic diseases, such as diabetes, heart disease and stroke.
Many of the causes of overweight and obesity are preventable and reversible. Although other factors are involved, the fundamental cause of obesity is an imbalance of calories consumed and calories expended.
How Big is the Problem?
As per recent 2021 data, the prevalence of obesity in India was recorded at 40.3 %. The research shows that obesity was higher among women than men (41.88 % vs 38.67 %), urban than rural (44.17 % vs 36.08%), and over 40 than under 40 (45.81 % vs 34.58%).
According to NHFS 2019-21 report, more than half (57%) of women and 48%of men in India have a waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) that puts them at a substantially increased risk of metabolic complications.
What is healthy weight loss?
It’s natural for anyone who is trying to lose weight to desire to lose it very quickly. But people who lose weight gradually and steadily are more successful at keeping weight off. Healthy weight loss isn’t just about a diet, it is also about an ongoing lifestyle that includes healthy eating patterns and regular physical activity, emotional balance etc.
Benefits
Even a modest weight loss of 5 to 10% of your total body weight is likely to produce health benefits, such as improvements in blood pressure, blood cholesterol, and blood sugars. So even if you have an overall goal that seems large, see it as a journey rather than just a final destination. You’ll learn new eating and physical activity habits that will help you live a healthier lifestyle. These habits may help you maintain your weight loss over time.
The Right Approach for Weightloss
The most common approach to fat loss for most people is without exercise. The biggest problem with weight loss by caloric restriction alone is an inevitable loss in lean body mass (LBM), with a large part of the LBM drop from muscle stores, and a drop in metabolic rate. The more calories are restricted, the more the body lowers the metabolic rate to compensate. This reflects the body going into starvation mode to prevent further weight loss. Depending on the amount of caloric friction, the addition of exercise may or may not have benefits in alleviating or preventing this drop in metabolic rate.
Restricting your calories can also decrease your metabolism and hence can cause loss of muscle mass. This makes it more difficult to maintain your weight loss in the long term. Several studies show that low-calorie diets can decrease the number of calories the body burns by as much as 23%. While for efficient weight loss body needs to burn sufficient calories.
Restricting calories too severely can lead to fatigue. If you maintain this calorie restriction for a long period of time it can also lead to nutrient deficiencies. Hence you become prone to several nutrition deficiency diseases due to lower immunity. Studies have also suggested overly restricting calories may potentially reduce fertility, especially in women.
Hence it is quite essential to consult your Nutritionist before taking up any weight plan or challenges.

Looking through my old pictures (when I never like to click a single picture of mine).I have realised that my transformation has not only been physical but also mental.
I started my journey for healthy leaving under the guidance of Deepa nandy from June 2019 when I was obese (76 kg) and completely lost myself.
Deepa ma’am simple and easy diet plan helped me in healthy leaving , weight loss journey and to feel proud of myself. I am happy to say that I have reduced 16 kg within 7 months by following such a easy and simple diet given by deepa ma’am.
I would like to thanks @deepanandys_nutriguide for all time support, guidance, motivation and making me feel good about myself.
I’m Nikhil, I’m 26 years old and I had visited her back in 2016 when I was obese and was a mammoth 119 kgs and boy oh boy that was the best decision of my life. She helped me understand the logic and science behind losing weight the correct way.
Not just cardio but some weight training as well. I build some muscle, started feeling good about myself and I cut down to an impressive 72.5 kgs all because of Deepa. Post that I was maintaining a health diet, taking necessary supplements and regular workouts.
Last year COVID-19 happened and my life went for a toss. Lockdown, no gym, junk, irregular sleeping pattern, no supplements and I was diagnosed with fatty liver, increased cholesterol, dropped RBC levels and what not.
Finally Deepa came to my rescue, I immediately contacted her as soon as the lockdown was lifted and we are back on track. Lost 4 kgs and 4% of body fat and that too in a month.
If you’re looking weight loss, fat loss, calorie deficit diet programs, maintenance check up or just want to be healthy, all you need to do is contact Deepa and she will help you out with a blink of an eye. She’s very welcoming, charming, has immense knowledge about this industry and she loves to help people transform and achieve what they really want.
I started going to Deepa Ma’am when I was 117 kgs. In just 3 months I have lost 12kgs steadily because of her guidance. The weight loss journey is still on and I’m hoping to lose more. It’s not just a change in diet that has helped me, but the change in lifestyle.
