Adnan Sami’s Overweight Problem

Adnan Sami was ruling the music industry with his back-to-back to music singles but his personal life had hit a turmoil. He faced a few personal issues and had hit the lowest phase of his life. He seeked divorce with his wife followed by a legal battle. This had led him to over eat due to depression. With the weight of 206 kilos, he was termed as obese. He couldn't sleep because lying down would make him go breathless. He could not walk even five steps and hence had to carry a walker with him. The problem was so gruesome that Adnan had to carry a special wheelchair for the flight, which could not provide extra large chairs. Later, he developed a problem called lymphedema in the knees. He had to undergo surgery which left him bed-ridden for approximately 3 months.

Adnan Sami Gets The Ultimatum From The Doctor

Even though Adnan suffered so many problems, he was still adamant to not bring about a change in his lifestyle. It was only after his doctor gave him an ultimatum that he would live only for 6 months that he thought of losing weight but even this was not enough. His father finally had to intervene and gave him an ultimatum that if he does not work hard to get his weight under control, he will walk out of his life. That's when Adnan finally decided to shed the extra kilos and walk the path towards healthy living.

Adnan Sami’s Transformation Starts

Adnan moved to Houston in order to seek the help of an expert, who could guide him over his weight loss journey. Initially, it was very hard for him to let go of his usual routine and change. His doctors realised that he was an emotional eater. He would just take refuge in food when he was sad, depressed and he would just celebrate any kind of happiness by indulging in delicacies. He had to stop doing this and hence it was more of a psychological challenge than a physical one.

Adnan Sami’s First Step To Fitness

His doctors advised him to go on a high protein diet. He was strictly alluded of white bread, rice, oil and sugar. He was asked to keep a distance from alcohol as it hampers the weight loss process. But this did not mean that he had to eat raw - tasteless food. He was allowed to eat home made food and things like pop corn without salt, diet chocolate fudge sticks and ice lollies instead of ice cream. Being overweight, he was not in a state to carry out any physical activity and hence for initial two months, he just had to follow this diet and walk if possible.
