THE JOURNEY TO LOSING 9KG OF FAT AND SAYING GOODBYE TO KNEE PAIN AT 53

✅ Weight loss isn’t just about achieving your desired figure - it’s about taking charge of your health and rediscovering the joy of living. 

The story of a CarePlus client who shed 9kg of fat while maintaining her muscle mass is a powerful example of persistence, resilience, and the will to live healthily - made possible through seamless collaboration between doctor and patient. 

1️⃣ From Knee Pain to Determined Change 

💥 For years, knee osteoarthritis caused Ms. H., 53 years old, persistent pain when walking, climbing stairs, or even wearing shoes. After consulting a CarePlus musculoskeletal specialist, she was referred to a nutrition consultation with MSc. Dr. Nguyen Phuong Anh. 

The first step was a body composition analysis using the InBody machine - technology that measures muscle mass, fat mass, bone mass, body water, and especially visceral fat levels. 

Initial InBody results: 

▪️ Weight: 71 kg 

▪️ Muscle mass: 18.9 kg 

▪️ Fat mass: 35.6 kg 

Based on these findings, the CarePlus nutrition specialist developed a personalized nutrition and exercise plan, ensuring both safety and suitability for her age and physical condition. 

2️⃣ A Scientific, Personalized Weight Loss Plan 

🥗 Diet: Caloric intake was moderately reduced to ensure satiety and sufficient essential nutrients. Energy levels were tailored to her individual InBody results. 

🚴 Exercise: As someone with limited prior activity and over 50 years old, she was encouraged to cycle 2–3 times daily, maintaining a total of at least 60 minutes of exercise per day. 

◻️ Weight-loss medication: Prescribed and monitored by her doctor. 

Through consistency and adherence to medical guidance, she attended regular follow-up visits, during which her diet, medication, and activity plan were adjusted according to progress. 

After one year, she achieved truly remarkable results: 

▪️ Weight: 61.5 kg (lost 9.5 kg) 

▪️ Muscle mass: 18.5 kg (maintained) 

▪️ Fat mass: 26.6 kg (lost nearly 9 kg of fat) 

✅ More importantly, her overall health improved significantly: 

▪️ No more knee pain, she could climb stairs easily, wear shoes independently, control her blood pressure better, and enjoy a more active life every day. 

▪️ She discontinued weight-loss medication six months ago and has successfully maintained her weight through a healthy lifestyle.
