Jasmine approached me in May 2023 with a clear goal in mind: she wanted to lose as much weight as possible before her wedding, which was scheduled for one year later. At the time, Jasmine weighed 97 kilogrammes and had 42% body fat. As a full-time doctor and A&E specialist working night shifts weekly, she faced significant challenges in balancing her demanding career with her fitness goals. However, her determination to transform her body and feel her best on her big day drove her to commit to the programme.
We began with three personal training sessions per week. Given her hectic schedule, there were times when Jasmine couldn’t attend in-person sessions due to work transfers that took her far from my studio. To address this, I designed tailored online workout plans, which we conducted via Zoom. This flexibility allowed her to stay on track regardless of her location or work commitments.
Jasmine followed a structured fat loss meal plan that I provided, which prioritised a high protein intake along with balanced amounts of carbohydrates and healthy fats. Maintaining this diet during her night shifts proved challenging, as hospital work often left little time for meal prep or regular eating schedules. Despite these difficulties, Jasmine’s commitment to her nutrition plan played a vital role in her progress.
Our training programme combined full-body strength workouts with plyometric exercises and high-intensity interval training (HIIT). Jasmine’s natural strength, being under 30 years old, allowed us to lift heavy weights during our studio sessions. These workouts not only burned calories but also helped her build lean muscle and improve overall endurance. For our online sessions, we focused on floor exercises using light weights and resistance bands to ensure effective yet convenient training.
Six months into her journey, Jasmine had already achieved remarkable results. She lost 25 kilogrammes and reduced her body fat by 15%. Her progress was a testament to her dedication and willingness to make fitness a priority, even amidst the challenges of a demanding medical career. Jasmine’s determination inspired those around her, and her confidence grew with each passing week.
In the months leading up to her wedding, Jasmine continued to train diligently. There were setbacks along the way, including periods when she fell ill after long night shifts. Despite these challenges, she remained focused on her goal and returned to training as soon as she recovered. By her wedding day, Jasmine had lost an impressive 32 kilogrammes and reduced her body fat by 21%. Her transformation was not only physical but also emotional, as she felt stronger, healthier, and more confident than ever before.
Jasmine’s journey didn’t end after her wedding. She continues to train with me twice a week, alternating between in-person and online sessions depending on her schedule. Her commitment to maintaining her health and fitness has made her a long-term client, and I am confident that she will continue to achieve great results in the years to come.
Jasmine’s story demonstrates that even with a demanding career, it is possible to achieve significant weight loss and fitness goals with the right plan, dedication, and support. Her success highlights the importance of consistency, adaptability, and a willingness to overcome challenges.
