Ms. Pradnya Padhye

I took the time to write this because I wanted to share my experience from the heart.

I was a healthy child, but after 35 I gradually became highly obese. That weight gain eroded my confidence—in front of the camera and around people. I had resigned myself to never losing the weight and made peace with my obese self.

Team BalCal entered my life only because of my sister. She was so convinced it would work that she sponsored my journey. I still had little confidence in myself after years of failed diets, dieticians, gyms, and weight-loss programmes on which I had spent lakhs with no results.

She insisted, so I gave it a try—and that’s how Pradnya and Shraddha came into my life (a life I am quite sure they will remain part of, whether they like it or not ). After just one week of clean eating during the trial, I felt less bloated and full of energy. The difference was so striking that I committed to six months—and my incredible journey with Team BalCal began.

It has not been without ups and downs. Weight loss requires effort, yet with excellent guidance and proper nutrition it never feels like a burden. There were plateaus, but that is precisely when the experienced team’s support mattered most. Pradnya and Shraddha’s dedication to my goals kept me motivated. The results followed: weight dropped, inches disappeared, and I could finally fit into my old clothes. With their guidance I also began strength training to tone my arms and legs.

When the first six months ended I still felt motivated to improve, so I continued for another six. The second phase was far from easy—my weight plateaued repeatedly and motivation dipped—but Pradnya patiently explained the science behind it. *** **** ** ****** ************** every decision is grounded in science, and that is something I truly appreciate. Follow their advice consistently and success is virtually guaranteed. Take it casually (as I did in the final three months) and the results will reflect that. They work for you, but you must also work for yourself.

They are never rigid. If you dislike a food they offer alternatives. They never force you to eat what you dislike, nor do they forbid occasional indulgences—they simply show you how to work around them. I have enjoyed cakes, sweets, and restaurant meals and still lost a significant amount of weight.

I am a 43-year-old woman, 5 feet 2 inches tall.

When I began with BalCal in July 2025 I weighed 88.7 kg with an HbA1c of 8.2.

Today, in August 2026, I weigh 63.5 kg with an HbA1c of 5.9.

So you do the Maths!

I was Suffering from Weight Problem since years and no matter whatever solutions I tried , nothing yielded me results which led me to lose on confidence and be conscious about my body and appearance. Then I got a reference of Balcal Nutrefy , but still I was of the view point that it would be some another torture without the results. One thing I didn't knew was that time was stepping in Balcal will change my perspective completely. Dt. Pradnya herself and special mention to my Mentor Dt. Nrutika , they both made me actually understand it was an internal imbalance and it can be cured just by simple things. They explained everything very calmly , addressing and clearing all my doubts and Queries. There I gained some Confidence to start the Journey. After the Journey started , it was not actually easy at the start , there were challenges to actually get into the routine and making sure I am eating "RIGHT" , but then eventually things happened and Results started Reflecting ! I felt internally happy and also few visible changes which made me feel good.

My Genuine suggestion that , No matter what are you Suffering from ; If you want to Cure some problem or maybe even just "EAT RIGHT" and maintain healthy lifestyle , then Balcal Nutrefy is your Go to Solution !! Simple and easily available ingredients , Simpler Reciepies , Full packed Nutrition all at one place.... No hard and Fast Rules , Flexible programmes.

A Huge shoutout and Thanks to the Entire Balcal Team ****️

I had the wonderful experience of working with Prachiti as my dietician for almost six months, and it has been a truly positive and rewarding journey.

My body was quite resistant to weight loss, but with her guidance and consistent support, I was able to lose around 4.5 kg. What I appreciated most was her incredibly positive attitude. Even at times when I felt I wasn’t making enough progress and was losing hope, she always encouraged me and helped me see the positive progress I had actually made.

During these six months, I had several office outings, travel, and a few emergencies at home, which made following a diet plan challenging. Prachiti was always calm, understanding, and practical. Instead of making me feel guilty, *** ****** ** ** *** * ***** ****** **** ********** ** *** **** ******** ****

Another thing I really appreciated was that she never simply gave me a diet plan. She took the time to explain the science and reasoning behind each plan, which helped me understand the importance of what I was eating. She was also very flexible and always willing to modify the plan whenever I was uncomfortable with something.

Overall, my journey with Prachiti has been a great learning experience, and I am genuinely thankful for her patience, positivity, and continuous support.

I truly recommend Prachiti and her services to anyone looking for a ************** supportive, and understanding dietician.

I joined the Balcal Nutrefy program after being diagnosed as pre-diabetic, with high cholesterol and triglyceride levels, along with being overweight. I chose Balcal Nutrefy because one of my relatives had completed a program with them and achieved good results.

My experience was life-changing. The program was well structured and followed a scientific plan, while also taking my dietary preferences into account. It included a practical combination of diet and exercise, along with regular check-ins to monitor progress. Although it was initially challenging to follow the plan alongside my work routine, it gradually became much easier to maintain.

My recent test results showed a reduction in cholesterol and triglycerides, and I am no longer pre-diabetic. I have also lost a significant amount of weight. More importantly, the program has changed my mindset towards eating habits and given me a clear roadmap for healthy eating in any situation.

Overall, I feel more positive and energetic than before, and I now have a regular exercise routine that helps me stay fit. The dietitians are ************* *** experienced, and I would definitely recommend Balcal Nutrefy to anyone looking to improve their health. Trust the process, stay consistent, and the results will follow.

My experience with Balcal Nutrefy was honestly quite amazing. My dietician, Nrutika helped me understand my gut issues in a much simpler and more practical way. What I really appreciated was that she didn’t just give me a diet plan — she made me understand the science behind food and how our everyday habits can affect our gut health.

One of my biggest learnings was understanding how something as simple as not drinking enough water can have such a significant impact on digestion and overall gut health. These small but important insights helped me become more conscious about my daily habits.

I am now completely free with my Bloating, and the results were even better when I lost 5 kg during my journey, while also feeling more aware and in control of my health.

I’m really grateful to Pradnya & Nrutika and the entire Balcal Nutrefy team for their patience, guidance, and personalized approach.

Would definitely recommend Balcal Nutrefy to anyone who is looking to improve their health with the right guidance and understanding.

\"Want to share my experience with Balcal. I can say it was a superb 3 months with lot of care, concern and guidance from Pradnya and Shraddha***I really appreciate the structured approach that they have and everything is modified to suit our schedule and lifestyle etc. That makes it easy for us to follow the plan and stick to it .**Though I m in my perimenopause stage , I lost weight with a very doable diet and workout routine under their guidance and have adapted to healthy and mindful eating*********Thanks dear Pradnya and Shraddha.*

As a foodie, I have always been overweight, and even after staying active with Gym, Cardio, Cycling, etc, I was not able to lose weight. I finally found out that diet is responsible for 80% of your health and only 20% is dependent on gym, but at the same time, one cannot be helpful without the other.

So, around June 2025, almost a year ago, I was looking for a dietician to guide me for my weightloss goals, and at the same time one who would suggest sustainable diet plans that are neither too difficult to follow, nor painful like what others keep suggesting, like removing my favourite snacks or desserts from my life or something, but still effective enough that actually show results on the scale and in my clothes.

Online reviews helped me find Dietician Pradnya's Balcal Nutrefy, and while I cannot thank the previous reviewers enough for sharing their experiences, leading to me finding her, I want to actively share my experience so anyone else looking for a Dietician for weightloss can go in, knowing why I highly regard Dt. Pradnya & Team's BCN as top choice.

Last June, I was 94, and within 10 months, I was able to lose 11 KGs and now I am at 83, even after taking some breaks in between due to travel and work. I was able to achieve all these without giving up my favourite foods, snacks, and desserts, and I have been able to actively maintain my weightloss all thanks to the approach they take, to explain you how your body works, what all parameters are important, what is in the food, and what the healthy way of eating is to balance everything.

Prior to the first consultation, I was told by the team to get my blood test done externally, and to provide my dietary preferences, and my existing food & exercise patterns and schedules.

After visiting the clinic, Dt. Lateshwari from BCN team first did my Body Composition and Analysis (BCA) and then explained all the numbers and parameters from the Blood Report and BCA, explained the difference between my numbers and ideal numbers, and then Dt. Pradnya explained theory behind digestion of different foods, the right proportions to have them, how to manage diets on days where it's specifically not possible to follow it to the point, and then provided me with a one-week plan to begin with.

This was a huge shift in proportions of the macros - Carbohydrates, Proteins, and Fiber that I used to have before and what I am supposed to have, so I would be lying if I said it instantly clicked in for me, but within three days, I realised that I was staying fuller for longer and with just some cardio excercise to begin with, I had already dropped a kg in a week.

I enrolled in the premium plan where my mentor was Dt. Lateshwari, who followed my daily meals and exercises, the mid-week weight updates, weekly consultation calls for plan updates & monthly BCAs at the clinic, and every alternate week's consultation was done by Dt. Pradnya.

We were connected via a WhatsApp group for updates, with them encouraging me to ping with any doubt or concern, and I could see the updated plans from the app, which also synced my step counts for them to track and follow-up on, apart from the food and excercise diary that I used to share on the group.

This helped a lot, and by the second week they reintroduced ch-eat-meal, restaurant/office meals, and how to manage it all properly.

My wow moment was when within a month of enrolling, where I was about to go for a 11-day Europe Trip, and they provided me proper plan for that too, so even after having Croissants and Pain-Au-Chocolats for breakfast followed by proper meals, nuts and SOS Protein Bars, and when I came back I found I had lost 2kgs while having enjoyed the tour properly without any sacrifice. (Yeah, the 16k steps per day average definitely helped but still- the way they explained the basics helped me enjoy all the indulgences, while balancing the nutrition well)

The progress was both fast and slow at times, and they kept providing different plans according to the body's state and especially the plateau breaker plans were introduced when the need was felt. Any new plan was properly introduced and proper guidance was provided based on how complicated the shift was, and then followed up again when the plan was switched out for another one again.

Amidst all of this, never did they ever suggest any kind of crash diet, and every diet plan was well balanced, and the weightloss results were complimentary with my level of exercise.

One more thing I observed is that the results started reflecting within a few months, with appreciative comments coming in from my relatives and colleagues about my weight loss.

I myself felt great when the same clothes that I had kept aside as they felt tight, again started fitting me properly. Also the kind of funny/bittersweet feeling of my existing clothes started feeling loose and oversized, thereby warranting a need of wardrobe refresh is unexplainable.

Overall, I would like to conclude by saying that weightloss needs a lot of patience, especially the willpower of not giving up efforts when the needle doesn't move for days, and with the right mentors that I have had, it was a regular journey.

Hope this review helps whomever else is in a similar state to what I was in last year, and they take the first steps in the direction they intend to be in.

I am and always will be grateful to Dt. Pradnya, Lateshwari and Harmeet :)

Before joining Balcal Nutrefy, I had tried several weight-loss programs, but I could never continue any of them for more than 2–3 months. With Dt. Pradnya Padhye, however, the experience was completely different. I successfully completed the entire one-year program, lost more than 9 kg, and, most importantly, achieved my primary goal of improving my health.

When I started the program, I was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes. My main focus was not just weight loss but also getting my blood sugar levels under control. I'm happy to share that my diabetes was resolved within the first half of the program, and my blood reports improved significantly. The weight loss was an added benefit. Today, I feel much more energetic, active, and enthusiastic in my day-to-day life.

One of the biggest reasons I could stay consistent for a full year was Pradnya Ma'am's personalized approach. She always designed diet plans based on my lifestyle and preferences. Before finalizing any plan, she would ask whether it suited my routine, and if there was any food item I didn't like or couldn't manage, she would immediately suggest practical alternatives. This flexibility made it much easier to follow the plan without feeling restricted.

I chose Balcal Nutrefy because I wanted a sustainable and personalized approach rather than a temporary diet. ******* ***** ** *** *** ** *** **** ********* * **** *** ** ******* I sincerely thank Dt. Pradnya Padhye for her continuous guidance, motivation, and support throughout my journey. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for long-term, healthy, and sustainable lifestyle changes.

I started my weight loss journey with Balcal Nutrefy when I was 8 months postpartum, weighing 138 kg. As a first-time mom and the sole caregiver for my daughter, finding time for myself, let alone following a diet felt almost impossible. Four months later, I'm at 121 kg,and I'm genuinely happy with the progress I've made.

One thing I really appreciated was how understanding the team was. They took my postpartum phase and busy routine into account and never expected me to follow an unrealistic plan. Instead, they gave me meals that were simple, easily customizable, and fit into my day without adding extra stress. That made it so much easier to stay consistent.

A special mention to my dietitian, Aditee. She was incredibly consistent with her follow-ups and never missed our weekly check-ins. Even on the weeks when I found it difficult to check in because life with a baby got hectic, she always reached out, encouraged me, and helped me stay accountable without making me feel guilty.

I've tried losing weight many times in the past, but I was never able to stick with it. This is the first time I've been able to make real, sustainable progress, and I truly believe it's because of Aditee and the entire Balcal Nutrefy team. Their guidance, encouragement, and understanding made all the difference.

I still have a journey ahead of me, but losing 17 kg in four months has given me so much confidence and motivation to keep going.

Thank you, Aditee, and the entire Balcal Nutrefy team, for helping me become a healthier, happier version of myself. You've truly made me feel like a new and better person, and I'll always be grateful for your support.

I struggled with maintaining a healthy diet and achieving my weight-loss goals so I decided to seek professional guidance.

I choose Balcal Nutrefy because I wanted a personalised and practical approach rather than a strict diet

Throughout my weight-loss journey, the diet was easy to follow and the regular mentor support kept me motivated.

I noticed positive changes in my energy, eating habits, and overall lifestyle, and I became more confident and disciplined about my health.

I would definitely recommend Balcal Nutrefy to anyone looking for the right guidance and a sustainable approach to a healthier lifestyle.
