I joined the SAS program in December 2023, weighing 180 lbs at 6'4". For most of my life, I was what you’d call “skinny fat”—carrying extra weight around my belly but managing to hide it due to my height. I’d tried several programs over the years, but none had the depth or scientific grounding that Gurneet’s program offers. As a healthcare professional, I could see that this plan was well-founded, so I committed to it with confidence.
Transforming your body is no small feat, and my journey was no exception. At 63 years old, I’m likely older than many people pursuing similar goals, and balancing a busy career didn’t make it any easier. I knew I needed to lose weight before focusing on muscle gain, so I braced myself for the process. Along the way, I faced a lot of questions from family, friends, and even patients asking, “Doc, why are you losing weight? Are you okay?”
Fast forward 11 months, and I’m down to 154 lbs, with my belly fat nearly gone. I posted my before-and-after pictures to track my progress, and I can truly see the difference. Now, I’m excited to enter the next phase: enjoying more food while working to build muscle.
One of the best parts of this program is its flexibility. You don’t have to eliminate foods you love; it’s all about maintaining the right ratios. As a Punjabi, I didn’t give up Chole Bhature or parathas—I just kept an eye on portions and balanced my macros.
Finally, a heartfelt thanks to Gurneet for designing such a thoughtful program and to my trainer, Rakesh Reddy, who’s been an encouraging and supportive guide. This journey has been challenging, but I feel stronger, healthier, and ready for the next chapter.
