In addition to multiple health conditions that creep in with the extra kilos, one also has to battle body shaming and obnoxious comments of people. When 35-year-old Vishal Basutkar did not like how he looked in the mirror, he decided to take control of his health. His weight loss journey is the living, breathing proof that anything is possible if you have unwavering dedication. Read on.Name: Vishal Basutkar

Occupation: IT Professional

Age: 35 yearsCity: Pune

Highest weight recorded: 90 kgsCurrent weight: 73 kgsHeight: 5 feet 11 inches

Morning: I begin my day with a glass of lukewarm water and 8 almonds.

My Breakfast: Four eggs boiled eggs

My Lunch: Two chapatis, a portion of green vegetables, 1 bowl of curd and 1 bowl of dal.

Evening: 1 cup of green tea

My Dinner: I keep switching between salad and grilled paneer and cauliflower. I did not consume any food containing carbohydrates for six months and only ate proteins and vegetables for dinner.I indulge in: I made it a point to not eat any junk food like pizza, burger, chaats etc even on my cheat days.

Pre-workout Meal: I have a banana at least 30 minutes before working outMy Workout: Initially, for the first two months, I did a lot of cardio combined with High-Intensity Intervals Training (HIIT) for 6 days a week. I gained my stamina by doing cardio and HIIT and lost a considerable amount of fat.

After two months, I increased my duration of weight training. As my goal was to decrease my fat level and increase my muscle mass, I focused more on compound exercises like squats, military press, dead-lifts and chin-ups.

Post-workout Meal: Protein shakeLow-calorie recipe I swear by: Scrambled eggs with cheese and roasted cauliflower

Fitness secrets I unveiled :1) Eliminate sugar and refined flour (maida) from your diet2) Strictly count your calories3) There is no substitute for working outThe turning point: If you dont like your reflection in the mirror due to any reason, then its time to take control of your own body. While I wasn't really bothered by the rude comments or the incessant body-shaming, I really felt ashamed of my own reflection staring right back at me in the mirror.

It was also quite frustrating when I could no longer fit into the clothes of my choice in the wardrobe! I realized that I had to take the matter in my hands before it went beyond my control. That was the time I decided to work on my body and get it back on track. I will admit that it wasn't easy, but it was certainly worth it. Now when I look into the mirror, I feel really happy and proud of myself.

How do I stay motivated? I make it a point to read motivational quotes to keep myself on the path of fitness.

How do you ensure you don't lose focus? I am really scared of gaining back all the weight I have lost.What's the most difficult part of being overweight? It was really annoying when I could see my stomach bulging out with every passing day and I used to feel lethargic all the time.What shape do you see yourself 10 years down the line? After ten years, I want to remain fit and have a lean and muscular physique and be able to run 5 kilometres non-stop.
