Weight Loss

Don't worry, there's still hope!
WQ_ImageTestimonials_JoshiJJ.png

What do you do when you have tried all fad diets and therapies but haven't lost weight still?

Well, you can approach Wellness Quotient! At least that's what Joshi did.

A 28 year old from Kuppam, he had started putting on weight since 2012 due to unhealthy lifestyle.

Since then, he has tried everything out there - nature therapy, fad diets, gym, honey water fasting - but with little success! He had lost faith that he can lose weight too.

That's when he came to know of Wellness Quotient from his college junior and decided to give it a shot.

When he started in March of 2021, his weight was a whopping 93 kgs!

But with a balanced approach involving diet, exercise, nutrition, stress and sleep and guidance from a WQ coach, he was 19 kgs lighter 4 months later.

"Constant goal tracking and support from my coach were key to my success", says a happy Joshi now!

The journey from XXL to S
WQ_ImageTestimonials_AashitaAazad.png

When you lose 29 kgs in 6 months, it's no more about just weight loss. It becomes a story of determination which inspires thousands out there!

And Aashita finds it true for herself.

Once a kabbadi and volleyball player, at 38, Aashita was obese with fatty liver and thyroid disorder. "Being obese stole joy from everyday life. I felt old and drained out", she recalls.

Having tried everything out there - home remedies, google search diets, weight loss drinks - with no results, a family friend suggested WQ to her.

"I am eternally grateful to her! In my 6 months journey with them, my whole family’s life has turned around!" says a smiling Aashita.

Within 6 months, she moved from XXL to S and 85 kgs to 56 kgs.

Of course she loves dressing up, taking selfies, compliments from husband and daughter’s friends, but what matters the most is that her whole family has picked up healthy habits!

"My stamina is more than my 18 year old and we love working out together!", says Aashita

Realising the fitness dream
WQ_ImageTestimonials_RaviKumar.png

To be fit and healthy is everyone’s dream. Only those who dare to chase it to realize it.

Ravi has volumes to tell about the efforts this chase requires.

The 31 year old software engineer had everything unhealthy in his lifestyle when he weighed 85 kgs.

Though he dreamed of being fit, his efforts never sustained. Ravi could not push it beyond 82. Lockdown made matters worse.

He was almost calling it quits, when, by chance WQ came into his life.

On sitting with coach, Ravi had an eye opening session. He understood the holistic idea about wellness and weight loss.

With a customized program, Ravi set forth. Within a week, Ravi couldn’t believe his eyes when the weigh scale needle dipped below 82 for the first time in five years!

Slowly but steadily he moved to 72 kgs alongside putting his gastric and BP issues to rest.

“My family is in a state of shock to see my transformation!” says Ravi with a chuckle and he cannot thank WQ enough for the making his fitness dream come true.

Lockdown blues
WQ_ImageTestimonials_AbeshakeL.png

Just like how trade and travel suffered, work from home during lockdown took a toll on many people’s health.

Abeshake - a 23 year old software engineer from Bangalore - is a standing example.

Being a foodie added fuel to the fire when office shifted home. Waking up late, making no effort to exercise and munching every snack his hands could find was a regular thing.

In no time, he was 84 kgs with visceral fat of 10.

Abeshake knew he would have to take charge of things before it got too late. The wrath of the lifestyle diseases were looming large.

That was when he was introduced to WQ. A whole new world of wellness seemed to open before him and his journey began under guidance of his coach. Soon everything started looking up and Abeshake slowly moved to 65 kgs with visceral fat of 5.

"The bliss of fitting into trousers of size 33 from being size 36 earlier is unexplainable", beams Abeshake.

Lockdown or otherwise, his consciousness towards health is here to stay.

Bliss of good health
WQ_ImageTestimonials_AshwiniBankar.png

Can mothers look after their own health along with taking care of others in the family?

"Why not?", says Ashwini, a 32 year old nutritionist and yoga trainer from Kalyan.

Babies bring joy and excitement into the life of a woman but also add to the sleepless nights and erratic schedule of daily activities.

Very often, women put their health at last until health starts sending alarm signals. Ashwini too woke up with a start when she found herself at 72 kgs.

WQ stepped in like a knight with a shining armour and everything just seemed to fall in place.

With dietary & exercise changes, Ashwini moved from 72 to 58 on the scale alongside losing extra inches and double chin. Back aches and acidity became things of the past.

"It's such a pleasure to still fit into the old clothes along with feeling young and confident", says a proud Ashwini 6 months later now.

Now she is able to focus on all the pillars of health and she is ever thankful to WQ for the happy and healthy life she enjoys now.

Becoming a better "you"
WQ_ImageTestimonials_PravinNaik.png

Being socially active has its advantages.

But for Pravin, government officer from Goa, it had a disadvantage.

He developed some poor eating habits due to his socially active lifestyle and took him to 111 kgs.

He thought joining a gym and cutting down on junk food will solve the problem. Unfortunately, the lock down threw a spanner in his plans!

Also, his weight gain started inviting troubles - shortness of breath, frequent cough and cold etc.

"The last straw was when I found out that I couldn't sit on the floor", he recollects with a sombre expression.

Thankfully his cousin introduced him to Wellness Quotient. In few weeks, he observed an improvement in energy levels, immunity and confidence levels!

After 6 months, Pravin lost a whopping 22 kg.

"At 89 kg, I am so much more energetic and confident. I can sit on the floor again!", says a delighted Pravin.

Pravin says that he cannot thank WQ enough for helping him to become a better version of himself.

The Joy of Wellness
WQ_ImageTestimonials_PollyBhattaSaha.png

The bliss of having children has a tag of a few added kilos.. isn’t it?

Or so were the beliefs of Polly Bhatta Saha, a 36 year old home maker from Assam.

She was at ease with herself and wasn’t even remotely upset of the way she looked. Not that she was unaware of the health compromise her adding pounds would demand.

She was first hit by the rude and unsolicited comments. When the over weight showed up with uric acid problems that drained her energy alarmingly, she knew it was a wake up call.

Through a good friend she came in touch with a health coach from WQ. Soon the ball started rolling.

With proper diet, supplementation and a customized fitness regime, the results brought a smile on her face.

In 4 months, Saha moved from 78 kgs to 60.7 kgs. Uric acid issues were resolved and she bounced back to her energetic self.

The most heartening part being the journey from size XXL to M!

“Soon a whole new wardrobe will arrive to celebrate the new me!” says Saha with happiness over the moon.

“The confident lifestyle that has become my new normal is a boon from the Wellness Quotient community and I can’t thank them enough for it”, she adds happily.

Back to youth!
WQ_ImageTestimonials_PavanPalle.png

You don't have to be foodie to lose health.

In case of Pavan, it was stress resulting in serious health challenges - weight gain, respiratory issues, dry eyes (xeropthalmia), muscle loss & much more.

Job in a metro city, two growing kids, health issues in family brought tremendous stress in life. Soon, Pavan started having disturbed sleep, uncontrolled emotions, worries- all leading to make him bulky and look 10 year older.

Pavan's wakeup call came during a health breakdown!

With strong desire to get back his prime health, he approached Wellness Quotient. To his surprise, he did not get strict diet plan, or gym regime but quite different approach.

Within few months, Pavan reduced from 75 kgs to 65 kgs along with better energy levels, making him look young & energetic again.

Now, he loves his 6 hours deep sleep, morning reading and seeing his teenage boys growing. He is also guiding many friends now, not just on weight loss but other health conditions.

Good health is good life
WQ_ImageTestimonials_ChandanPasupula.png

"Health is the most precious wealth and it is worth taking utmost pains to gain and secure this wealth"

These are the words of wisdom from Chandan, a 23 year old Hyderabad based accountant.

With thyroid and increasing weight, Chandan was facing the ugly truth when the sedentary lifestyle added fuel to the fire. 92 kgs on the weighing scale stared with fringes of health issues. Help from his brother, a doctor didn’t show much results.

As if by stroke of luck, he came in touch with Wellness Quotient through a friend and things began to fall in place.

A customized, sustainable program given to him by the coach started bearing fruits. The coach walked every step of the journey with him.

Consistency and dedication in exercising and food habits with focus on the 6 pillars on wellness were the keys. In 4 months Chandan moved from 92 to 70 with normal thyroid levels.

He is beaming with joy as his sustainable lifestyle helps him keep steady on his path to wellness. "When friends and relatives complement it is priceless!", says Chandan smiling to his ears.

After two pregnancies, can I still be fit?
WQ_ImageTestimonials_PrathimaGouthamiPuppala.png

Pregnancy can take a toll on your body. That is why, post pregnancy care is so important!

Gouthami had maintained a slim, fit & healthy body all throughout. But it started to change after her first pregnancy.

"I still took a chalta hai attitude", recalls Gouthami. But things took a bad turn after her second pregnancy. She lost control on important health paremeters like diet, workouts, sleep, etc.

Once in beautiful shape, now she had put on extra 10kg weight, along with backpain and hormonal imbalances.

"I hated to look like an aunty, barely in my thirties", Gouthami used to think.

Seeing many people transform themselves through Wellness Quotient, she decided to take the first step. Her husband being yoga instructor supported her through this journey.

After losing 10kg, with a toned body and a glowing face, people can hardly guess her age!

"I can't thank WQ community enough to extend their guidance & support to transform not just my body but life as well!", is how she expresses her happiness these days!

Fitness with a sedentary job?
WQ_ImageTestimonials_VasudevaMarepally.png

When you move from college to corporate, your fitness doesn't necessarily move with you.

Not for Vasudeva at least!

An active athlete and basketball player in college, he became a victim of sedentary lifestyle and bad food habits.

But he wasn't concerned until 12 years later he had gone from 65 kgs to a whopping 100 kgs! Numerous healh issues started popping one after another.

That is when Vasudeva decided to start on a personalised program with a WQ coach. He became mindful of how to make his body fit.

Inspite of having a sitting job for 10 to 12 hours a day, with right guidance, waist reduced from 38 to 33 and weight from 92 kg to 79kg.

"Not only have I learnt a lot about the right workout routines, but have come to a stage where I am guiding some of my friends", says Vasudeva.

These days, Vasudeva has become a source of inspiration for others to become healthy!

Fat to fit, in lockdown!
WQ_ImageTestimonials_ShubhamArora.png

It was the back pain that caught Shubham's attention.

Along with the IT professional hectic schedule came some extra weight, tiredness throughout the day and some minor back pain.

But he did not feel that he had any cause for concern. Until the lock down happened, that is.

A sedentary life with bad eating and sleeping habits led Shubham's weight to 86 kgs. And along with that, severe back aches.

Thankfully, he received guidance to reduce his weight with customized diet and workout plans, along with addressing sleep and stress issues.

Six months later, he reduced from 86 kgs to 68 kgs! The back pain disappeared without a trace, too.

He started his journey with Wellness Quotient in September 2020 and he is now able to maintain his ideal weight with ease.

"The best thing about my program was that I did not have to do any dieting", says a visibly excited Shubham.

Is fitness only for the fat?
WQ_ImageTestimonials_Sridhar.png

Can fitness be a problem for someone not so heavy? Shridhar has a story to tell!

For 34 year old Shridhar Murthy, pot belly was an extra baggage attached to his otherwise normal body!

“I couldn’t bear the sight of myself in the mirror. Thin hands, flat chest and then a round big tummy sticking out of place – what a funny figure I was!” recalls Shridhar.

With no direction to follow, he tried everything that promised quick results, but with no results. It hit him hard when the body composition analysis showed alarming numbers.

Seeing his wife’s improvements with a WQ coach made him think. Soon, with nothing to lose, he decided to give it a try “And the rest is for you to see” says Shridhar showing off his fit self!

Oozing confidence minus the pot belly with volumes of learning about wellness along way, Shridhar’s waist is back to 30 from 34, body age is 36 from 41 and the green figures on the monitor brings only a smile!

WQ_ImageTestimonials_MaanikGoel.png

Sometimes you never realise how extra weight creeps up on you.

Maanik Goel from Jammu felt the same during lockdown!

Being an athletic person, he has always been very active. But hectic office work, late night calls, untimely meals - they all took toll on his health.

"It felt as if I had a tyre around my waist. I was feeling lethargic and it got difficult to fit into old clothes", says Maanik. "That's when I came in touch with Wellness Quotient."

Gradually things started to change. In 3 months, he reduced from 81kgs to 69.4kgs. Maanik felt active and energetic again, and more importantly, he started fitting in his old clothes again!

"Now I'm able to manage my busy schedule and have time to maintain a healthy lifestyle", he claims proudly. Maanik still has to reach 60kgs, but is confident of doing so now that he has his coach and whole community to help him out.

Ankur was managing safety for a chemical giant, but his own health was unsafe.

Ankur was managing safety for a chemical giant, but his own health was unsafe.

He was overweight, along with elevated levels of lipids and sugar along with fatty liver, and of course alarmed!

But those were medical parameters. He was feeling tired and therefore, mentally disturbed throughout the day.

After starting with Wellness Quotient, Ankur said, "I was happy since it aptly suited my busy lifestyle."

He started following the recommendations and could see difference in his energy levels. After 2.5 months into the program, when Ankur repeated his bloodwork, he was pleasantly surprised. His HbA1c dropped from 6.9 to 5.4. His LDL to HDL ratio moved from 4.15 to 2.3 and his fatty liver improved too!

And the best part was that he could reduce from 86kg to 72kg!

"I'm thankful to WQ community to help me regain my health and also show me principles of good health," says a motivated Ankur.

He started his health journey in December 2020 and is able to maintain his health still.

A lesson in good health!
WQ_ImageTestimonials_PratapNShinde.png

Pratap could teach Civil Engineering, but needed a lesson in good health!

At 87 kgs, this professor was overweight by 20 kgs and dead worried.

With rigorous exercise, he came down to 80, but couldn't break the barrier further. Crash diets, longer exercise hours didn't help. During lockdown, he actually started putting weight again!

Not only his physical health, but it started impacting his mental health too.

That's when he started working with a coach from the WQ community. After 4 months and working on all 6 pillars of wellness, his weight was 67.4. His BMI changed from 29 to 24.3!

Pratap feels energetic and can run 4-5 kms easily. He says, "I'm lucky to come in contact with WQ community at the right time!"

Apart from achieving his health goals, he claims his biggest take away is that importance of nutrition and other aspects of wellness are ingrained in him for life!

Anything for Good Health
WQ_ImageTestimonials_JyotiKumawat (1).png

When good health is a priority everything is possible.

Jyoti Kumawat, a 29 year old research professional had been under medication to treat thyroid.

Pregnancy added 5 more kgs to her weight and being in the research domain along with the family responsibilities focus on health took a back seat. Improper diet, due to lack of knowledge landed her in fluctuating thyroid levels and this became a cause for concern.

Lockdown came as a blessing in disguise. She got in touch with WQ through her husband and the wellness coach was just what Jyoti has been looking for – a guide.

The first ray of hope came when the coach reinstated the fact that her thyroid could be treated and losing weight was also possible.

Jyoti kickstarted a personalized program and joined the daily work out sessions with WQ. The rush of energy she felt was something she hadn’t felt in years.

Few months down the line, Jyoti has lost the excess 5 kgs and backache has vanished into thin air! A more flexible and confident Jyoti can’t thank WQ enough for all that she is today.

Losing the extra baggage!
WQ_ImageTestimonials_HariharanChalangol.png

It crept up on him. Hariharan did not see it coming.

This senior financial advisor from Bangalore was shocked when, one day, his weighing scale showed 84 kgs!

He had gained about 15 extra kilos since the pandemic began.

He began doing what he knew best in order to lose his extra weight. He started counting calories and steps. He even made the ultimate sacrifice for a South Indian – stopped rice!

But his progress seemed to be marginal, at best.

Luckily, a friend introduced him to a wellness coach at WQ.

Hari was a bit surprised in the beginning. "I thought I would have to start eating some exotic diet to lose my weight. It was reassuring when my coach suggested some very small changes", he fondly recollects.

But these seemingly small changes began to show big results. With his coach's constant guidance, Hari lost a whopping 12 kilos in 3 months.

With waist from 34 inches to 30 inches, a thrilled Hari says, "It feels great to fit into trousers that I wore during my wedding 10 years ago."
