I met Dr. Rajshekhar Gandhi, the messiah of
Motus and a healer of Gargantuans, at a time in my life,
when I was as big as a balloon and growing bigger and
bigger by the day. My mirror gave me the creeps, I
shuddered at the sight of weighing scales and my wardrobe
shrunk in size. I got into a vigorous exercise and a
near-starvation diet programme. I lost kilos but put them
on faster than you could spell F-A-T. I swallowed
powders, anti-hunger capsules, joined various slimming
clinics and health clubs in fancy 5- star hotels and all
that I lost was the money in my pocket and my
self-confidence. I continued to remain a
‘fatso.’
Resigned to my obese existence, I decided to live and die
a fat woman. But it was not to be so. All of a sudden , I
was attacked by severe joint pains. And what was worse
and perhaps the most frightening thing of it all, was
that I could not write. My wrist ached, it was impossible
for me to hold my pen and that terrorised me. I ran to
Dr. Farokh Udvadia, one of the best physicians in the
country. He pointed obesity as the cause for my noveau
problem. "Lose weight," he ordered.
I was back to square one. Fortunately, I met Dr. Gandhi
and his wife, Anita Gandhi. And the first thing I noticed
about them was (no, not the haloes, I discovered that
later) that they were different from all the others I had
encountered in the marketplace. Their dedication and
sincerity stunned me and I was very impressed at the way
Dr. Gandhi patiently explained my illness to me. Obesity
is a sickness and like all other illnesses, it needs to
be treated. The Gandhis changed my life. They are about
to change yours.
This book is filled with the knowledge and experience of
a lifetime. Nobody can tell you what obesity is, why it
can take your life and how to combat it, better than Dr.
Rajshekhar Gandhi. I’ve gone through this book from
the first page till the last and found it more absorbing
than a fast-reading bestseller. It’s a book every
fat person should read, understand and follow. It can
save your life!
