Please Note: Pooja Makhija's Nourish was not listed in the product's list. Since I am eager to write the review I chose another product with similar name. I want to share with all the experience I had with Pooja Makhija's Nourish.
I am a female in my mid twenties. 5 feet 3 inches. I used to be a overweight girl in my school days (68 kgs). I reduced to 51 kgs during all these years till present day. However, I still had the flabs and was gaining weight as I started working and was leading a sedentary lifestyle. I was on a lookout for a good nutritionist. I did my research on nutritionists.
My friend suggested me two nutritionist Rujuta Diwekar and Dr Pooja Makhija. I called up Rujuta Diwekar's team and was shocked to know her exorbitant fees which I think is only affordable by actors and alike. So dropped the idea of visiting her and instead scheduled an appointment. This was in Dec 2012. Got an appointment in April 2013.
Finally the day arrived and I visited her in April. I traveled from Thane to Khar where her clinic is located. She gave me a list of tests to be done which costed my around 11k and set my target weight as 46kg. After showing her the blood test results she asked me to take some vitamin tablets and started my diet plan. First month went fine. Of-course initially took time to adjust to the diet plan which cuts on sugar and fried food. I had no sugar in tea and coffee which was very difficult for me initially. I lost 2 kgs in month of May. I kept loosing weight, felt lighter. My skin was glowing as she suggested a vegetable juice to drink daily. Everything went smooth for few more weeks.
But one fine day I started facing the side effects of this diet plan. That is HAIR LOSS. It started in June. Initially, I ignored this problem and thought it will subside on its own and attributed it to the weather change, But unfortunately it aggravated :(...Though I was loosing weight and all the extra flabs still I was depressed due to this problem.
I visited 4 doctors till now and tried everything from homeopathy to allopathy but still the problem persisted. I wish she should taken care of this fact and provided vitamin/minerals tablets along with the diet. When I told her of this problem she very smartly attributed to weather change which was not true. It was purely due to nutritional disorder since before I never used to loose any hair before taking this diet plan.
So guys these are the pros and cons of this diet program. You will loose your weight and feel lighter and be ready to face the side effects..
