Introduction

luckyLE0, a 29-year-old man, recently shared his weight loss journey on Reddit. He started out at 204lbs and has now gone down to 168lbs. It took him six years of ups and downs, but he has been hitting it hard the last few months. He is now sharing his story for inspiration, without any agenda to promote any product or service.

MyFitnessPal and exercise routine

One of the tools that luckyLE0 used for his journey was MyFitnessPal, which he used for tracking his calories. He also exercised regularly. He played basketball 3 times a week for 1.5 hours each time, which burned 2400 calories weekly. He walked about 6-7 miles a week and did P90X strength workouts three times a week. He also did a refeed once every other week, which he heard was important.

Challenges and advice

LuckyLE0 faced challenges such as having belly fat, which he plans to address later when he cuts after bulking up for a few months. When asked about his routine, he mentioned that he did not do much ab stuff but that he would start doing them. He also received advice from other Reddit users to try the ab ripper from P90X. Speaking of bulking up, luckyLE0 plans to use Body Beast, a muscle building program he recently bought.

Sculpting your body

One of the things that luckyLE0 and another user, badburritos, agreed upon was that the body is built in the kitchen and sculpted in the gym. In other words, diet plays a significant role in any fitness journey. LuckyLE0 mentioned that he had been staying under 2100 calories a day while eating vegetarian and exercising. He also pointed out that he has learned not to rely solely on exercise and to pay attention to what he eats.

Conclusion

LuckyLE0's journey shows that weight loss and fitness take time, effort, and consistency. Tracking calories, exercising regularly, and making dietary changes are some of the ways that one can achieve their fitness goals. LuckyLE0's story also serves as a reminder that there is no one-size-fits-all approach. Everyone's body is unique, and what works for one person may not work for another. The key is to learn from others, experiment, and find what works for oneself.
