About Back And Body Wellness Centre

Mantej Pannu and I also go by Manny. I am a Manager and Weight Loss Consultant at Back and Body Wellness Centre. I was born and raised in India. Since, my childhood I was very active in sports and as I got older my love for track and field sports and body building also grew. In India, while I was completing my Master’s Degree in History I competed in many track and field events and achieved gold medal in Discus Throw, Hammer Throw, High Jump and Long Jump. After finishing my studies in 2001, I moved back to my home town and got a job as a college professor. During this time I developed the appetite of healthy eating and exercising regularly and soon started training myself as a bodybuilder. I came to Canada in 2003 and during my early years in Canada I had to go through struggles in finding the right job that fit my education level. I soon lost that discipline of healthy eating which I use to have back in India and embraced the North American diet. I gained weight quite fast and I wanted to lose it since I was never considered to be overweight before. So I started exercising whenever I had time but instead of losing weight I gained more weight and got bigger as the years went by. After a few years I was 249 Lbs and I also developed a severe back problem. My wife who is Chiropractor motivated me to lose weight and to be healthy again. She told me that my back pain would get even worse if I did not lose weight. I had no choice but to lose weight to be healthy again. I came across a gentleman named Vic who introduced me to Ideal Protein Weight Loss program. I started the program and within 2 months I lost 37 Lbs. This new diet (healthy eating) not only helped me with my disc problem but it also improved my sleep pattern. Now I do not feel hungry all the time, and am eating very healthy.
