Introduction

Meet blackshaunwhite, a 24-year-old who decided to take charge of his health in January 2022. In a post he made on Reddit, he detailed his starting weight of 168lbs, and his goal to lose weight and feel better about himself. Over the next few months, he kept track of his progress, documenting milestones and setbacks alike.

The Journey Begins

In his first post, blackshaunwhite shared his plan to start tracking his food intake and exercise routine. He set a goal to eat around 1,600 calories per day, and to exercise for at least 30 minutes on most days. He started with simple workouts such as walking and cycling, gradually building up to more intense cardio and weight training.

Progress Update

After a few weeks of following his plan, blackshaunwhite checked back in with the Reddit community to share his progress. He had lost around 6lbs, and was feeling more energized and confident. He also shared that he had been using a food scale to measure portions, and had started cooking more meals at home instead of eating out.

Ups and Downs

While blackshaunwhite largely stuck to his plan, he also experienced some setbacks along the way. He shared with the Reddit community that he had gone over his calorie limit a few times, and had also skipped a few workouts due to feeling unmotivated. However, he acknowledged these slip-ups as part of the journey and made a plan to get back on track.

The End Result

After just a few months of consistent effort, blackshaunwhite achieved his goal weight of 150lbs, losing an impressive 18lbs in the process. In his final post, he expressed gratitude for the support and motivation he received from the Reddit community, and encouraged others to start their own weight loss journeys as well. His inspiring story is a testament to the power of small, consistent changes and determination in achieving personal health goals.
