Getting to Know Monica Arora

Monica Arora, a resident of Gurugram, Haryana, lives in a nuclear family setup. As a homemaker in her perimenopausal stage, Monica struggled with weight issues, affecting her confidence and overall health.

Despite attempting various diet plans in the past, she faced chronic constipation, gastritis, and uncontrollable cravings for sweets and namkeen.

How did Monica find out about Fitterfly?

Monica’s journey to better health began when her doctor recommended and referred her to Fitterfly’s Weight Loss Program for a weight loss solution. Determined to address her health concerns and regain control of her weight, Monica decided to enroll in the program.

Before joining Fitterfly, Monica faced several difficulties that impacted her daily life and well-being.

Chronic constipation, gastritis, and late-night binging on unhealthy foods were taking a toll on her physical and mental health. Moreover, the hormonal changes of perimenopause resulted in mood swings, frustration, and irritability.

How did Fitterfly’s 3 Coach Team Plan for Monica?

1. Nutrition Strategy

Monica’s Nutrition Coach worked closely with her to create a personalized weight loss diet plan. 

• Personalized Diet Plan: Monica’s Nutrition Coach designed a diet plan tailored to her specific needs and preferences.
• Volume Eater Support: Since Monica was a volume eater (someone who prefers larger portions), the coach provided assistance in modifying her eating patterns.
• Protein-Rich Foods: The coach introduced protein-rich sources, such as lean meats, tofu, legumes, and eggs, to Monica’s diet. Proteins help in maintaining muscle mass and keeping her feeling full and satisfied.
• Salads and Fruits: The diet plan included plenty of salads and fruits, which are rich in essential vitamins, minerals, and fiber. These elements contribute to overall health and digestion.
• Nuts and Seeds: Monica’s nutrition coach added nuts and seeds to her meals as they are excellent sources of healthy fats and essential nutrients.
• Gradual Changes: Instead of implementing drastic changes, the coach introduced modifications to Monica’s eating habits gradually. This approach makes it easier for her to adapt and sustain the changes over time.
• Meal Timing: The nutrition plan also involved gradual adjustments to meal timings, helping Monica establish a consistent eating routine that suits her lifestyle. 

By incorporating these nutritious elements step by step, Monica found it easier to embrace her new eating habits without feeling overwhelmed.

2. Physio Plan

Initially leading a sedentary lifestyle, Monica experienced leg pain. The Physio Coach designed a comprehensive fitness plan.

• Strength Training: The plan incorporated strength training exercises to help Monica build muscle strength. Stronger muscles can support her legs better and reduce the risk of pain and injury.
• Cardio Exercises: The Physio Coach included cardio exercises to improve Monica’s cardiovascular health. These exercises got her heart pumping and helped in burning calories, improving stamina, and promoting overall health.
• Flexibility Routines: Flexibility routines were integrated into the plan to enhance Monica’s flexibility and range of motion. These exercises alleviated muscle stiffness and improved mobility.

This tailored made well-rounded fitness plan by Monica’s Physio Coach led to overall improvements in her fitness and pain management.

3. Success Plan

Monica was facing stress and sleep-related problems that were impacting her overall well-being and productivity. These are the interventions suggested by her Success Coach which brought a 360-degree change in Monica’s health.

• Mindfulness Eating: Monica was taught about Mindful Eating which involves being fully present and aware of what and how you are eating. This change in her eating style led to her eating more healthy food which directly reduced stress. 
• Meditation: To help Monica manage her stress, the coach introduced simple meditation techniques.
• Positive Affirmations: Affirmations are positive statements that can help change negative thought patterns. Monica’s Success Coach encouraged her to use affirmations to cultivate a positive mindset and boost self-confidence.
• Breaking Unhealthy Behavioral Patterns: The Success Coach identified and worked with Monica to break any unhealthy behavioral patterns that might have been contributing to her stress and sleep issues.
• Sleep Improvement: By addressing the underlying factors causing sleep disturbances and stress, Monica’s sleep quality gradually improved.
• Holistic Approach: The success plan took a holistic approach, considering both psychological and behavioral aspects of Monica’s life. 

With the guidance and support of her Success Coach, Monica learned valuable techniques and strategies to manage stress and improve sleep. These skills can be applied in the long term, which will lead to sustainable results in her personal and professional endeavors.
