Introduction

A male Redditor, who has since deleted his account, underwent an impressive weight loss journey that lasted for 24 months. He started with a recomp, moved on to a bulk, and then went on a cut. Through his journey, he gained over 10 pounds and inspired other Redditors to achieve their own weight loss goals.

Recomp Phase

During the recomp phase, the Redditor went from weighing 164.8 pounds to 175 pounds, an increase of 10.2 pounds. While the weight gain might seem counterintuitive, it was a crucial step towards achieving his weight loss goals. By eating in a calorie deficit, he was able to lose fat while building muscle. This helped give him a more toned appearance.

Bulk Phase

After the recomp phase, the Redditor moved on to a bulk, which helped him gain muscle mass. He worked out regularly and ate more calories than he burned to gain weight, but he made sure that he wasn't consuming an excessive amount of calories. During this phase, he gained a few pounds, but the muscle gain was more substantial.

Cut Phase

Once he had gained muscle mass, the Redditor moved on to a cut. During the cut phase, he ate in a calorie deficit to lose the fat that he had gained during the bulk phase. He increased his cardio and worked out regularly while eating healthier foods. This helped him lose the excess fat while retaining his muscle mass.

Conclusion

The Redditor's weight loss journey shows the importance of consistency and patience when it comes to losing weight. By focusing on one goal at a time, he was able to achieve his ultimate goal of losing fat and gaining muscle. His journey serves as an inspiration to others who are looking to embark on a weight loss journey of their own. By sticking to a plan, making healthy lifestyle choices, and staying patient, anyone can achieve their weight loss goals.
