Adi innocently entered his body measurements into his wife’s Wii Fit. This was just for a bit of a fun; however his mood darkened when the BMI tool indicated that he was in the obese category with a BMI of 37. Adi could no longer ignore his expanding waistline so he made a prompt decision to lose weight and get his fitness back on track.

He tells us his story…

Why did you decide to join us?

I bought my wife a Wii fit game and after it arrived I casually checked my BMI and weight. My BMI was 37 and I weighed in excess of 115kgs. I was both shocked and scared by the results. There and then I decided to do something, and here I am now.

Was your weight causing you any problems?

Finding clothes that fitted was a major problem for me. My confidence was very low and I could barely manage to walk for more than 10 minutes at a time.

Tell us about your diet before you joined us?

Before I started dieting I never used to care about what I was eating. There was no measurement or control of my portions. I tried another diet before the Gi diet plan, but the choice was limited. Since switching to the online healthy weight loss programme, I have never turned back. The meals, wide range of foods and shopping list are my favourite elements.

What difference has losing weight made to you?

The difference is major. I have to say it’s a turning point in my life. I feel much younger and more energetic, active and confident than I have done for years. My family and colleagues have heaped me with praise which helps to keep my energy levels high.

How have your family and friends reacted to your weight loss?

The reaction was awesome and the support was excellent. My wife was inspired by me and she also lost around 15 kgs in the last 4 months.
