Baby steps – As Sami’s mammoth diet started, it was not as drastic as one would imagine. Initially, he was advised to make small changes and take it from there. His diet was completely devoid of any processed sugar, white bread, rice and oil. These ingredients were considered to be the complete no-no. Sami also had to get off alcohol completely since it would hamper the process of shedding weight. Also, he was made to substitute favorite heavy foods with lighter, low-cal options.
