A 44-Year-Old Mother and Gynecologist Lost 9 Kgs in 9 Weeks and Transformed Her Health with Help from Top Hyderabad Nutritionist Deepika Chalasani

Name: Dr. Sujana

Age: 44 years

Location: Hyderabad

Case History: Dr. Sujana, a 44-year-old gynecologist and a mother of two, was 87 kg with a BMI of 38.6 kg/m2. Over a period of time, juggling between career, motherhood and household responsibilities, not only caused slow and steady weight gain but also caused Grade 2 fatty liver, hypertension and a HbA1C of 5.9.
Her demanding work life—marked by long surgeries, unpredictable hours, and high stress—made prioritizing her own health difficult. Like many working mothers, she put herself last. But all of that changed with the right guidance, a simple execution friendly program and a, science-based nutrition plan.

Approach by Deepika Chalasani – Clinical Nutritionist, best dietician / nutritionist Hyderabad, India:

Instead of fad diets or extreme exercise plans, the focus was on:

• Balancing blood sugar naturally
• Supporting liver health
• Reducing inflammation
• Promoting fat loss through food timing and quality
• Making the diet practical and cost-effective for long-term consistency
• Easy to do physical activity and lifestyle movements

The plan was customized to suit her intense workdays as a gynecologist, offering flexibility without compromising on health goals.

Her meal plan was carefully designed to help her lose weight, manage prediabetes, and support liver health—all while accommodating her demanding lifestyle as a gynecologist. The plan provided around 1400 kcal of whole foods with a balanced macronutrient ratio (49% carbs, 18% protein, 33% fat), emphasizing low glycaemic index foods like ragi, millets, brown rice, and shvasa green rotis to maintain stable blood sugar levels. Clean proteins such as lean meats, egg whites, tofu, and curd were included in every meal to support metabolism and muscle health, while a variety of locally available seasonal vegetables offered fiber and detox support. Healthy fats like ghee and peanut oil were used in moderation to aid hormonal balance without overburdening the liver. Low-glycemic fruits were preferred to help prevent blood sugar spikes, reduce insulin resistance, and minimize liver stress—all of which are crucial for managing prediabetes, fatty liver, and weight loss .
To make the plan sustainable, we helped her with easy to use kitchen gadgets, simple recipes, strategies to meal prep the previous evening for the next day so that her overall time in the kitchen would not exceed 45 minutes in any given day. For busy work weeks, some meal components like protein and vegetables soups were prepped in advance, ensuring she could follow it even during her busiest workdays. Dr. Sujana also has a fairly busy social life and some days of travel of every month. We supported with giving guidelines and helping her make reasonably conscious food choices that allowed her to enjoy her pleasure foods. As she is a busy professional, we asked her to incorporate just 45 minutes of physical activity for about 4 to 5 days a week along with lifestyle movements of 10000 steps every day.  This holistic, practical, and personalized approach empowered her to lose 9 kg in just over two months, while feeling more energetic and in control of her health.

 The Turning Point: In just 70 days, Dr. Sujana achieved a milestone:

• She lost 9 kg
• Felt lighter, more energetic, and in control
• Began making consistent, informed food choices
• Built a sustainable routine despite her hectic schedule

This transformation was made possible through a structured, supportive, and non-restrictive approach led by Deepika Chalasani, metabolic health expert and nutritionist based in Hyderabad.
Dr. Sujana’s story is proof that even with a demanding career and ongoing health concerns, real transformation is possible. She didn’t give up her favorite foods or sacrifice time with family—instead, she built a new lifestyle that works with her life, not against it.
Her success is a testament to what happens when nutrition meets practicality, and when women in healthcare decide to care for themselves too.
