They say that the circumstances and situations we face in life make us. The good, and especially the bad experiences, mould us into individuals with unique battle scars that we can proudly walk around with.
Yet, it takes one of those rattling experiences to turn our lives around and save it from going completely downhill. A moment of clarity is all we need to find the strength to steer our lives around towards a better future, and that is exactly how the journey of celebrity nutritional consultant Jaydeep Bhuta reads.

A proud Mumbaikar, Jaydeep is a well-known name in Mumbai's Vile Parle neighbourhood as the guy who changed his life, and helped others make theirs better as well. Born into a typical Gujju business family, Jaydeep enjoyed the hearty vegetarian Gujarati meals and snacks he was brought up on. Until one fine day in February 2015, when 28-year-old Jaydeep found himself veering towards the wrong side of the weighing scale.
At 145kg, Jaydeep was clueless when he had lost track of his life to such a great extent. The jarring reality of his obesity shook him to the core, just as much as the multiple health concerns that stared at him right in the eyes. Over the years Jaydeep's weight kept crawling up while he continued to live his life without inhibitions.

Finally when things really got out of hand, Jaydeep decided to do something about his situation. “My weight gain was slow, but it kept growing over time. Genetics also played a role. My family history shows we tend to show up on the higher side of the scale. I began experiencing difficulty in moving, had trouble breathing and sleeping, was lethargic. That's when I thought if I don't do something now, it'll become a problem beyond repair.”

With a 52 inch waistline and a body that had never known exercising, Jaydeep decided to seize his fast fading life and turn it into a healthy, full life. Talking about that point of his life, Jaydeep said, “I consulted many dieticians but nothing worked. I would lose a few kgs, and regain it as quickly. Eventually, after a few failed attempts, I realised that I would have to learn the science behind weight loss myself. I studied nutrition for two years.”

During this time, and with the help of noted scientists Dr. Eric Westman, who is the Vice President American Obesity Council, along with Dr. Stephen Phenney and Dr.Jeff Volek, Jaydeep began his own fitness journey. Soon, he began applying his knowledge of biochemistry into his own lifestyle. Jaydeep reinvented food as he knew it, and worked hard to educate himself.

With a disciplined lifestyle and exercising, his efforts began to show results within months. Within a year's time, Jaydeep lost over 60kgs! Now weighing around 85kg, he had not only saved his life but also found a passion he wishes to explore more. As a certified nutritionist and fitness consultant, and with his weight loss to show for it, Jaydeep then began helping a few friends in need.

“It worked for them as well, and then simply through word of mouth, more and more people began to drop by for consultations. At one point, when the number of clients grew significantly, the family business took a backseat. My clientele grew and suddenly I had almost 1500 clients, and a lot of Bollywood celebs were amongst them. From Priyanka Chopra to Varun Dhavan, Bobby Deol, Huma Qureshi and many politicians, a lot of well-known personalities have been my clients,” Jaydeep told MensXP.

Jaydeep's initiation as a celebrity nutritionist began with actress Sonali Bendre's husband Goldie Behl's weight loss journey. Soon other B-town celebrities approached him, and that is how Jaydeep got a chance to work with Bobby Deol. Jaydeep tells MensXP, “When I met him for the first time he was a little heavy, and though he was fit, he wanted to become fitter for a shirtless scene in 'Race 3'. We worked together on a plan and within three months he lost approximately 10kg. Over time Bobby Deol lost close to 15kg, so from being 90kg or so, we got his weight down to approximately 77-78kg.”

Bolly Deol's amazing transformation that became the talk of the town as soon as the trailer for 'Race 3' hit our TV screens has a lot to do with our man Jaydeep here. “Bobby can't tolerate spicy food, so his food was simple. He used to eat 3-4 times a day, besides the sweets and stuff I would send from my clinic. I would often change his diet plan according to his blood tests. I created a low carb diet. Along with weight training and cardio, he began showing positive results within 3 months. Salman Khan's trainer was working with him on his weight training, while I handled his entire diet plan.”

Now in his early 30s, Jaydeep has completely transformed his life. He is constantly expanding his business, and plans to step into a long term health food company very soon. One simple decision to do something about his waning life, changed everything for Jaydeep. “Today I have gained so much confidence, found a passion and turned that passion to work. Moreover, I get to help people and make them happy. That's my biggest achievement and makes me happy.”
