Introduction

Jesodiah, a Reddit user, shares his weight loss journey from weighing 300 to 225 pounds in 10 months. His progress pics received 286 upvotes, with commenters congratulating him on his achievement.

Background and Approach

Jesodiah has been on and off with exercising for a while, but he finally decided to give it his all in the summer when he got sick of how he looked and felt. He began with walking up and down the Niagara Escarpment stairs in his city for a couple of months. This eventually led him to start jogging/running for a more efficient cardiovascular workout. Joining a new gym opened in his neighborhood, Orange Theory Fitness, encouraged him in his weight loss journey.

Workout Schedule

Jesodiah usually goes to the gym 4-5 times a week, attending 1 hour classes of approximately 30 minutes of cardio and 30 minutes of floor exercises, which use dumbbells, TRX, etc. When he has had a bad eating day, he would throw in a 5km run during the week.

Diet Plan

Jesodiah sticks to a strict diet plan that consists of the following:

  • Breakfast: Eggs and bacon or a mixture of oatmeal and quinoa
  • Lunch: Salad with a protein (tuna, sardines, or chicken)
  • Dinner: A quinoa salad with either fresh fish, canned fish, or chicken
  • Snacks: Quest bars, whatever fruits or vegetables he has around. He prepares his meals beforehand so he can quickly prepare a bunch of meals.

    Conclusion

    Jesodiah's weight loss journey shows us that dedication and commitment lead to success, even if we've been struggling with our weight for years. Those that seek to lose weight can learn from his experience and adopt changes that fit their lifestyles, such as step counting or jogging. If one changes their eating habits and exercises properly, great results can happen in time.
