“Tough times don’t last but tough people do.” Here’s a keto success story that talks about Puneet Yadav who embarked on his transformational journey with us around 4 months ago. Puneet Yadav is a 24-year-old Entrepreneur from San Francisco, California. He leads a highly active lifestyle where he works out for 2 hours every day.
His first love is working out. It’s been 12 years since he has been going to the gym. His gym game has always been strong. It was all fun and games until when he started realizing that despite the fact that he was working out in a really good manner, his body fat percentage was still 18.5. Also, he was losing his muscle mass too, which wasn’t a good sign.
When you indulge in an excessive workout regime, initially you’ll start shedding down the extra weight gained by you. But after a certain point of time, having to do excessive cardio and eating in a deficit makes our body use muscle as a source of fuel and it gets into a catabolic state. Typically, when you want to “lose weight,” you want to lose fat while maintaining as much muscle as possible. If you’re losing muscle and not fat, then you may need to make some changes to your diet in order to counteract this.
Puneet tried doing a means of diet along with working out on his own but even after that, he wasn’t able to see any results. For this, he needed to follow a proper diet that would help him in keeping his muscle mass intact and lower down his body fat percentage as well.
It was until one day, he came across the concept of the Keto Diet. Puneet stumbled upon our Instagram. His mind was blown to see our client’s keto success stories and he finally approached us. He told us he was losing his muscle mass and even after trying a lot of things altogether, his Body Fat Percentage wasn’t coming down. He required a personalized ketogenic diet for getting back in shape and muscling up at the same time.
We understood his expectations from the diet and ensured him that provided he sticks to the diet in the right way, achieving his goal was a mere cakewalk. We made sure that all of his requirements and preferences will be taken into consideration throughout the course of this diet and so he finally decided to start his keto journey with us. A personal nutritionist was assigned to him who made sure to keep him motivated and encouraged to stay on track while on the diet. She ensured to guide him through the diet and helped him follow it in the right manner as well.
Puneet was surprised to know, how eating fats could make him lose weight. The keto diet aims to force your body into using a different type of fuel. Instead of relying on glucose that comes from carbohydrates such as grains, legumes, vegetables, and fruits, the keto diet relies on ketone bodies, a type of fuel that the liver produces from stored body fat.
The ketogenic diet is a very low-carb, high-fat diet that shares many similarities with the Atkins and low-carb diets. It involves reducing carbohydrate intake and replacing it with fat. This reduction in carbs puts your body into a metabolic state called ketosis. When this happens, your body becomes incredibly efficient at burning fat for energy. It also turns fat into ketones in the liver, which can supply energy for the brain. Ketogenic diets can help in reduction in blood sugar and insulin levels. It shifts the body’s metabolism away from carbs and towards fat and ketones.
We also helped him with Intermittent Fasting as a means of lowering down his Body Fat Percentage. Intermittent fasting is an eating pattern where you cycle between periods of eating and fasting. It allows small amounts of low-calorie foods during the fasting period.
All sorts of processes in the body change when we don\’t eat for a while. When fasted, we get significant reductions in blood sugar and insulin levels, as well as a drastic increase in human growth hormone. Many people do intermittent fasting in order to lose weight, as it is a very simple and effective way to restrict calories and burn fat.
