Quantum Member Jyothsna Loses 17 Kgs | Game Changers

In this Game Changers interview, Deenaz (host of the Deenaz Fitness Community, DFC) speaks with Jyotsna, an English teacher from Hyderabad, about her 11‑month transformation after joining DFC. Jyotsna joined the community in April 2022 as a Gold member, quickly upgraded to Diamond within two weeks, and followed the Diamond modules, daily workouts, and 21‑day weight‑loss meditation. Despite having hypothyroidism and ongoing medication, she lost 17 kg in ten months without drastic dieting, instead practicing mindful eating and consistent short workouts that fit around her teaching schedule and commute. Her weight loss positively impacted her family, who adopted mindful eating, and earned her compliments at work and from relatives, boosting her confidence and public speaking. Jyotsna attributes success to the power of mind programming, visualization, goal setting, and daily meditation. She shares practical tips: set clear weight goals, visualize success, maintain daily workouts, and stay consistent. The interview concludes with a call to action for viewers to join a 5‑day boot camp.

So let's welcome— hi Jyotsna, welcome to our Game Changers channel and thank you so much for coming here.
It's my pleasure, thank you very much.
So Jyotsna, tell me which city are you from?
I'm from Hyderabad.
You're from Hyderabad. And, uh, when did you join the DFC community?
It's been 11 months exactly for today. I mean, I joined last April, uh, 2022, April 2022. On the 17th of April, I, I started my journey.
And you started as a— from the 5-day WhatsApp camp?
Yeah, I, I just joined the 5-day WhatsApp camp, but I could not complete it. Then I could not attend it, but there was something that drew me to this, uh, community, towards you. Uh, there were— there was a time when I lost all hope. Uh, I've always been, uh, on the higher side of my body weight, and I tried whatnot. I tried everything, and I gave up in life. I, I used to get demotivated. Then it was something that probably that attracted me, that drew me towards your campaign, your ad. I saw you speaking on Instagram Reel when I was scrolling, then I thought, let me try this. There is something in Deena's that, that can really do something good to me about losing weight.
Then, so you joined as a Silver member?
I joined as a Gold member, directly, directly as a Gold member. Directly as a Gold member. That was the trust I had, uh, one, uh Just one minute I saw your ad and I had that trust. Somehow I, right from the first moment, I knew that this is going to give me result.
Fantastic. And when did you move to Diamond?
Diamond? I moved to Diamond within 2 weeks. I got an opportunity. Yeah, within 2 weeks after joining in this community, I got an opportunity to upgrade to Diamond. I didn't leave that opportunity. I thought, because that 2 weeks of period was enough for me to understand how the system works. To understand that this is really something that will turn my life, change and transform my life, uh, in the aspect of health and fitness. Uh, just within 2 days I understood, I started doing it.
But tell us what you do, uh, just now.
Yes, uh, right from day 1 I started watching all your videos. I attend all workouts regularly.
Oh, before that, tell me, what do you do? What is your profession?
Yeah, yes, uh, coming to that, I'm a teacher by profession. I teach English language skills in an engineering college. I have almost 20 years of teaching experience. This is my passion. It's my passion to teach English language. So, uh, probably in this passion, being busy with career, I ignored and neglected my health. And a little to be blamed is COVID. I should say. And, uh, and I agree that it was my mistake. I ignored and neglected it many a time. I didn't take care of my health. I didn't watch my weight, uh, putting on and on. Then there was one moment, at one time, I felt, oh my God, what's happening to me? I'm putting on weight. I should do something. Then it was then, at that time, I, I could meet you, get associated with you.
Did your weight have an impact on your health as well?
A lot, a lot actually. Before joining this community, before meeting you and getting associated with you, I have been suffering from hypothyroid. Whatever I did, whatever medicines I did, doctors used to tell me, no, you have to take medicines throughout your life, and then you have to— I mean, there's no solution for this. I mean, I used to visit doctors, get my tests done. But lethargy was something that I always had a problem, which, which I could overcome now.
And, uh, are you still on thyroid medication?
Yes, I'm still on thyroid medication. The difference I could found before this and after this is, even I was taking— though I was taking medication, I could not see any result at that time. I mean, my body did not respond to the medication. I used to feel lethargic. There was no active movements in the body, and I was not active in at all. I used to just go do work and then I used to just sit on the sofa. Uh, what, even though I, I wanted to do something, I could not do. I could not walk for 15 minutes. There was one time when I had to walk for half an hour and I, I knew how I struck, how I struggled. So all these were very simple problems and doing hectic work was a big task for me.
Yeah, because of the body weight.
Body weight.
So a lot of people are under this impression that if you have thyroid, you can't lose weight. Now that you have lost weight, first and foremost, can you tell all of us how much weight have you lost?
I lost 17 kgs in 10 months.
17 kgs in 10 months! This is an amazing figure, really. And a lot of people under the impression that you can't lose weight if you have thyroid.
I was one among them, actually. But I, I really want to go out and tell people that please don't keep such misconceptions and don't live with such misapprehensions. There is every way to lose weight even if you are suffering from hypothyroid. Please put in efforts, it is possible. I am one live example, and I cannot mention or not put it in words How happy I am to lose weight. I'm really very happy about this. I never thought that this would happen to me. Losing 17 kgs weight is something that I never imagined before meeting Minaz.
And you've been attending the live session since 11 months?
Yes. What I do is, I start to my college, I have to take the college bus at 8 o'clock. So I start at 7:55 from my house to take the bus. So I keep everything ready so I cannot attend the complete workout, but I want to be there. So I attend 20 minutes to half an hour of it, the first half an hour. Then I log out, do the cool down, and quickly get ready and take the college bus. I come back in the evening, go for a walk, and then continue with the workout.
Wow, wow. A lot of people are under this impression that, you know, you have to do drastic dieting in order to lose that weight? Did you do any drastic dieting?
No drastic dieting, no, not at all. I mean, it is only that we have to eat mindfully. We should know what we are eating and what is it giving us to our body, what is it doing, uh, to—
And did your food— was your— were your meals separate from that of your family, or did you all eat the same food?
We all ate the same food.
And you, we feel good about it?
Very much. In fact, I should say my husband and my mother-in-law are also very happy because Now they're saying that they also fell into the health track. Rather, they're also eating mindfully and they're very happy about it. In fact, my husband says that he's really very happy about the transformation that I brought regarding health and fitness in the entire family. So this not only helped me, but it helped the entire family.
Fantastic. So, Jyotsna, a lot of people don't understand the power of the mind, and I always say that you sort your mind out and you sort your body out easily. So, Josla, can you tell us how did you use the Diamond Modules and the power of mind programming to overcome all the challenges that you faced?
It is only the power of mind that brought me here, actually. Without that, this losing 17 kgs would not have been possible because I tried many ways earlier to lose weight in my course of life. And gave up because the effort that I used to put, the diets, the crash diets that I used to do, would not give me result. And I used to get demotivated and fall back again. So where people used to lose 2 kgs and 3 kgs in a month, I wouldn't even lose half kg. So after, I mean, following all the healthy mindful eating and the workouts that you make us do, and that too with a lot of pleasure. So I, it's the power of mind that helped me a lot. The Diamond modules really helped me a lot. And initial first 1 week, 10 days when I was so enthusiastic after taking up Diamond course that I should follow all the modules. And I used to quickly take all the leisure time that I have and listening to the videos and, and I quickly grasped the, uh, grasped to understand the power of mind, how I should use the power of my mind to be consistent in Yeah, workout and diet. In fact, all my friends keep telling me that it's now very difficult to, you know, see that you fall back again. They know how consistent and how determined I am.
What are the kind of— so did you follow the meditation modules that I've created in the Diamond Module?
Yes, yes, that is another aspect of the Power of Mind. The meditation, the 21-day weight loss meditation, the powerful weight loss meditation, whatnot. I mean, not even a single day goes without doing meditation. I feel really very guilt about not doing anything if I don't do it even for a day. Fantastic. Really, that meditation— I think when I meditate, I am telling my mind that I have to continue with this. This is what I have to do all the time, and I don't, uh, relax or nor fall back into the old regime. Rather, I think this has become my lifestyle now.
Fantastic, fantastic. So what are the kind of compliments you're getting at your place of work now?
Oh my God, wow, they're endless, I should say. Not only at the place of work, but even in the family. Uh, I can just go on and on about it. And especially at place of work, people are telling me that you lost so much weight. I mean, when people see me in the corridors walking, they say that we couldn't identify or recognize that it was you. You changed a lot. I should share one compliment I got from a 6-year-old boy. I mean, he is, I mean, my cousin's grandson. I mean, last year when he had come to us, he used to call me Nani. But then this time he saw me after losing 17 kgs weight, and then he says, I don't feel like calling you Nani now. You changed a lot. You don't look like Nani anymore, and I want to call you Didi. Greatest compliment, the greatest compliment from a 6-year-old. That too, from a 6-year-old.
Fantastic, fantastic. What do you feel from inside after you lost all that weight?
Lots of confidence in whatever I do. I mean, I have to make presentations when I have to stand in front of people and talk. Not that I didn't have confidence earlier, But it is giving me more and more confidence, and my personality has evolved a lot because there was that simple, uh, I mean, what to say, uh, lapse or gap in my life that this overweight is troubling me like anything. But now even that is fulfilled because of Yudi. Thank you, thank you very much.
Thank you so much. Now you know the technique to take this forward and You know, because your foundation and your system is so strong and powerful that, uh, even if we always slip back, but even if you slip back a little bit, that's okay. You know how to get back on track.
Yes.
And I, I will be talking and interviewing you next, but I, I understand and know that you have become a Quantum member and, uh, they're working on your career. And, uh, I'm looking forward to having a very, uh Powerful year with you.
Thank you very much.
Before we end this, please give a few, um, tips to our viewers that you followed.
Yes, uh, please, uh, prepare a goal for yourself, and you should have a goal for yourself first— how much weight you want to lose— and visualize that you have already reached that goal. Visualize where you will stand after you lose that weight. Keep visualizing how you would look after losing the ideal weight that you want to lose, and believe that you can do it. Because there was one time that I felt that I will never be able to do it, but with the power of mind, with these, I mean, association and that positivity and the vibration that I got from her, I could achieve this. When I can do it, you can also do it. It is the determination and sticking to our goals. And please keep reminding your goals each and every day. Uh, Dee keeps telling that, uh, you know, um, that every single day we have to follow workout. People used to ask me, do you work out only alternate days or 3 days a week or something like that? I say, when we are eating every day, we have to work out every day. This is what I learned from you, Dee. Really, that determination, uh, is this really very, very important. What worked for me now and what didn't work earlier was this, that consistency and that determination which I learned from.
Fantastic, fantastic. Thank you so much, Josna. So as you can see that if Josna can lose 17 kgs in 11 months, I'm sure that you are super inspired. And if you feel that you want to get your journey started then all I want to do is click on the link in the description. I've got a beautiful 5-day boot camp planned for you. I look forward to helping you get your journey started. Once again, Jyotsna, thank you so much for being part of this Game Changers, uh, interview and helping me to inspire other people and helping me to get India fit and healthy. Thank you very much.
Thank you very much.
